By "human zygotes", do you mean human beings? Yes or No?
<NO ANSWER>
No. I don't mean anything by your phrase, "human zygotes". I do not, by your phrase, "human zygotes", mean human beings, nor do I mean things that are not human beings, by your phrase, "human zygotes". Where have I used your phrase, "human zygotes", in any other way than to ask whether or not by it you mean human beings? That's right: I have not.
I'm not asking a thing from you....rather YOUR intuitive reflection upon the scenario is all that's required. Thanks for participating.
I already answered that question
Oh, well good then. So you would save the 5 month old baby, and leave the zygotes, is that right?
Let's say you're in a building. Before you are 2 5-month old babies and a tray containing 100 zygotes. Suddenly, the building bursts into flames. You only have time to save either the 2 5-month old babies or the tray of 100 zygotes, but not both. Which will you choose?

Unless you mean something by your word, "zygotes", here, you've not asked a question.
By your word, "zygotes", here, do you mean human beings? Yes or No?
They are certainly potential human beings if they are brought to term.
Now answer my question to you.
You've not answered the question I asked you:
By your word, "zygotes", here, do you mean human beings? Yes or No?
They are potential human beings, but not actual human beings. Now answer my question to you.
By your word, "zygotes", do you mean human beings? Yes or No?
Is that a Yes?
So, then, is it a No?
Yes.

You only have time to save either the 2 5-month old babies or the tray of 100 [things that are not human beings], but not both. Which will you choose?

Your silly "scenarios" are meaningless.
The premeditated taking of an innocent life is the Biblical definition of murder
The whole point of the exercise is to check whether people think a human zygote is in fact a human in the same way as a 3 month old baby.
