Well, for anyone who believes the fetus to be part of the mother, they would also have to believe the fetus to be an organ by definition. Does one need to explicitly state this in order to believe it?
Plus, I'm not sure I follow the logic all the way around. Are you saying, more or less, that since no science textbook says the fetus is an organ, then the fetus is not an organ, and therefore all I've said so far is wrong. What exactly would a scientist do to determine if the fetus is an organ or an individual organism? I think this would be essential to show if your claim is to have merit.

I doubt it. As I have been getting at, Stu will actively avoid talking about anything where he is wrong, and he just changes the topic instead of facing being wrong. I wouldn't expect him to entertain your 'difficult' questions.
