How do you define embryo or fetus? I say it's a stage of development. You are
also a bunch of cells. What stage of development are you?

Embryo, fetus, something else, baby, toddler, pre-teen, teen, adolescent,
adult, elderly - they describe development, but they all have one thing
in common. They are human beings.

If an embryo or fetus is not a human being, then what is it?

Then why not start killing off the excess after birth too?

You have a baby and find out it is autistic and probably will never talk.
What's more important, keeping that unwanted child or tossing it aside
and trying again?

Couple of things - superstition based laws - so I take it you don't believe
that we are created in the image of God? What do you believe? Random chance
and evolution?

That leads to the answer of the 'wanted' child and society, so answer that
one first please.
