The points here are as follows:

1. If the zygote is human and it is life, it is human life.
2. No one can prove that a human spirit does not exist along with a zygote, simply by saying that the cells do not seem to support sentience.
3. As to which zygotes are purposed to live longer, or be duplicated genetically, and which are not, in our natural law theory of law this is not recognized as a decision that man is capable of making, only nature's God.

This is not a matter of "religious fundamentalists" or anyone else imposing belief upon another so as to violate his human rights. It is a recognition of a purpose to prevent unsupportable beliefs from being imposed upon natural human life, in order to tamper with its genetic makeup, or to genetically choose what should become life, or to terminate its life.
