Does a human being have a body? Of course, is the obvious answer.
I consider it a fact, that human beings, actual animals, members of the species, have bodies.
So the zygote, a single cell with human DNA, cannot itself be a human being.
Since it is only one cell, it cannot possibly have any flesh and blood and bone, i.e. a body.
The implication is, there cannot possibly be a human being at conception.
(Other than the newly pregnant woman.)
Note this is NOT about any disembodied "soul," not about "souls surviving the body," things like that. It is about real human beings alive on the earth.
