Furthermore, these indecent immorals need to try sticking their nose into a street fight ---where it has no business being--- and see what the results to their nose are in those circumstances.  OUCH!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Facts:

Egg { X } is live biological organism of the woman.

Spermoza { X or y } is live biological organism of the male who gives his sperm to the female.

Combination of spermoza with egg equals an biological living oganism of ---and attached to-- the pregnant woman, until,

.....1} birth of fetus as baby only  and,

.....2} disconnect of the umbilical cord.

The less complex male cannot, nor ever will be a womb-an irrespective of sexual transitions.

The more complex female and most complex pregnant woman are the most complex biological organisms of Universe.

You were pretty incoherent, but what I got is that you think life starts the moment a baby is born.  This is simply not true.

Life- "The property or quality that distinguishes living organisms from dead organisms and inanimate matter"

In science, the organism created is referred to as a life.  

And why should life in humans be any different to life in other forms?
I believe humans have moral intrinsic value much more than any other being.  Animal rights or whatever you are trying to bring up here is a different discussion and irrelevant.

According to my logic I have no problems with any sort of killing of human beings as long as a sufficient reason is given 
The majority of reasons, including the ones you cited, had nothing to do with a women's health or changing their body.  It was purely economic or convenience.  What would you deem a "sufficient reason?"
<br>

Apart from this question being contingent on a flawed definition of viability
This is the most used definition by pro-choicers and was straight from wikipedia.

Those are reasons why abortion should not be controlled as opposed to reasons why abortions are requested. You'll note that bodily autonomy does not also feature in that list and yet it is a significant reason for pro-choice arguments.

Any reason given that is readily accepted by society at large is sufficient to me

This is the most used definition by pro-choicers and was straight from wikipedia.
I don't believe you could possibly argue that this definition is actually the one most used. Apart from this and regardless of where it came from, it clearly does not convey the meaningful differences between fetal viability and viability as used by you in the general sense and is hence flawed. The definitions I sourced from wikipedia clearly convey the differences

Ad-populum fallacy.  Just because it is popular does not make it morally right.

Eh, that's a difficult question.  There are pretty widely accepted moral standards, and I would say anti-murder would be one of them.  When it comes to abortion, most people are not educated on what they are killing.  I like to think of these questions logically and to justify the positions.  My question would be at what point point or reasoning does the women get to murder another human being?  Morally, this is, and logically.

But being widely accepted does not imply that they are morally right, right? Because this would be another example of ad populum. So essentially what you've said is that there are plenty of accepted moral standands, murder is one of them. But this doesn't tell me if they are morally right or not so we're back to square one.

There goes that old "belief" word again.

Some might argue that such single minded "belief" is as about as immoral as it get's.

Belief is simply picking and choosing the bits that correspond with your own personal level of conditioning.

I said "Just because its popular does not make it morally right"

It is widely agreed upon that murder is wrong.  I think we agree on that.  My point is people are not fully educated on what they are killing and what is going on during abortion.  If we agree murder is wrong, we are trying to logically follow under which circumstances we can murder a human being in the womb.  Where do you draw the line?  If you stick a knife through a baby's chest outside the womb its 1st degree murder, but if its inside the womb we call it a human right.  Why aren't you against murder inside the womb?

Which is a popular opinion. We can't actually determine whether murder is actually morally right or wrong based upon popular opinion by your argument right? 

My point is people are not fully educated on what they are killing and what is going on during abortion.
That's certainly a dubious claim coming from someone who was unaware of the hormonal changes a women experiences during pregnancy. How is someone to take your point of view seriously when you seem to lack a general understanding of pregnancy and dismiss serious pregnancy concerns as "conveniences"?  

If we agree murder is wrong, we are trying to logically follow under which circumstances we can murder a human being in the womb.
Why aren't you against murder inside the womb?
You're using the wrong terminology. Murder is a legal term to describe unlawful killing. So essentially what you're asking me is why am I against the law. The problem here being that since we're arguing over what the law should be, you've presupposed that it is murder in the first place.

You have acquired and stored data in a particular way. (As do we all)

And consequently you attach tags to certain bits of data that you regard as belief.

You "believed" that you could differentiate between one life and another.

Therefore, given your stance in this discussion, it is only fair that others with different "belief" variants, should regard your position as somewhat  hypocritical.

As it would seem that your "beliefs" allow you to be selectively moral.

I literally have no idea what you are saying.  You could just say what you mean in a coherent sentence, instead of philosophically written paragraph.  Just say it directly bro.

Nothing to do with ego.  That is what I got from your response.  Simply re-typing your response will generate the same consensus from me.  If you want to clarify or correct my position, then do so.  Just explain what you mean or when you think life starts in a short sentence.  WOW! Now I understand your position.

Enough with the semantics.  Shall we use "kill" instead of "murder?"  Ok, thank you.

Again, you have yet to answer my question and keep dodging it.

Logically, why can we kill a baby inside the womb, but can not outside the womb?  If they are both human beings, then why aren't you against killing them in the womb?  Where do you draw the line?  Does a women's hormonal changes give them a right to kill a human being?

I'm not sure what you're misunderstanding about

According to my logic I have no problems with any sort of killing of human beings as long as a sufficient reason is given with respect to the moral constraints of society. I deem reasons for abortion sufficient and so everything else follows, yes?

So you have no self-morals?  All your morals are based on society?

What would you consider sufficient reason?  Would you consider hormonal changes a sufficient reason to kill a human being?  Where do you draw the line?

Everyone has their own personal blend of morals which are derived from society among other factors

What would you consider sufficient reason?
Already answered

Would you consider hormonal changes a sufficient reason to kill a human being? 
No

Where do you draw the line?
"I have no problems with any sort of killing of human beings as long as a sufficient reason is given with respect to the moral constraints of society."

I don't. All abortion cases involve the right to bodily autonomy and hence this is automatically a sufficient reason for me

Just to be clear...you think a women's bodily autonomy "rights" give them them the right to kill another human being?

Miscarriages are completely different from abortions. Miscarriages, the women does not choose whether to kill the baby.  Unfortunately miscarriages happen, and it is very sad.  In abortion, you choose to deliberately kill the baby.
