A human organism, according to Apple!
He maintains that, although conception (fertilization) takes place, the living organism produced is not really alive yet. Apparently, a certain length of undetermined time needs to pass, before we can call the organism "living" even though it is behaving like every other living organism we've ever known.
He will point to the fact that 50% of these organisms die and spontaneously abort, therefore, they were never alive to begin with. Subsequently, since so many of them die and were never alive to begin with, the 50% that survived were not alive at that point either. Apparently, it is only when an organism is able to maintain the process of life indefinitely, that it can be called a living organism.
Since he has failed to provide us with any guidelines to determine how long an organism must maintain the process of living before being considered alive, and given that any percentage of failure to live is enough to deny the distinction of life to an organism, then we can deduce that no human currently living is actually alive. Unfortunately, 100% of all human organisms will eventually not be able to maintain the process of life. We will all ultimately "spontaneously abort" the process of living some day.
It saddens me to no end to inform you of this, I had such great hopes for humanity, but alas, you are all dead... non-living human organisms... a clump of meaningless cells, destined to spontaneously abort some day. Sorry... blame Apple... it's HIS argument!
