By that definition the usage of condoms is murder, too, as their usage means intentionally killing ovocytes, which are innocent, human, and alive.

But it doesn't stop there! Following that logic, not getting every single fertile girl and woman forcibly pregrant every 28 days is murder, too! Otherwise, all those ovocytes will die.

Somewhere in the syllogism you postulated has to be a logical flaw.



Actually, It is you whose logic is faulty here. Life (according to the commentator) begins when an embryo is fertilized.


Murder starts at a single fertilized cell?


Not in my opinion, but maybe the question should be asked to the parent comment you replied to.
