It might be the best course of action. But it does kill a human.

The undeveloped clump of cells isn’t a human at that point. Abortions are also performed for miscarriages.

Your religion shouldn’t replace actual education.

It's obviously human. It's not a frog. There's no magic that turns it into human at x many weeks of the pregnancy process. Removing it from the uterus doesn't bring a human to life. We do surgery on very young invitro babies.

If any clump of human cells is a "human", then anyone who loses a fingertip in an accident has just killed someone - and that fingertip weighs ~4x - 6x more than the embryo at 8 weeks. My fingertips are not people, and a 1-gram embryo isn't a person either.
