Pro-choice knows, for a fact, that the million dollars is slowly growing inside the shoebox.
Those are the positions here. One is an opinion and one is a fact. Once people accept that their opinion is not a fact, there will be nothing to argue.

I'm not as confident in "science" as you. When I was a child popular science more often suggested the fetus was a living organism. And I'm not so sure the medical\scientific community is as confident as you assert, but I do overall plead ignorance.
I think you're still missing the point. If you don't abort the fetus it will eventually (in the majority of cases) become a human being, that's also a fact. And that is how those who do not think like you draw their conclusions, it's very logic and it's very much based in the laws of reality, if anything your argument is more semantically then anything.
