So it is always an arbitrary line drawn from an unknown exact instant of conception. Even the first trimester boundary can not be completely accurately determined. It's always a guess.
Oh true, it is a vague line. It has nothing to do with personhood though. My only issue is the man involved has no say on the issue. Je should also have a choice about parenthood.
If they allow it to ever be considered human, then the problem is that there's no single clearly defined event where it changes from non-human to human because it is a gradual process.
That's why pro-abortion groups can't admit that an unborn child is ever a human, not even up to the day before birth, sometimes not even right after birth.
It is not simply a location. It's not as if a full baby magically appear inside a woman the day after conception. The actual person is growing a fetus. The woman is the person.
Assaulting a pregnant woman would be the crime, not a property crime. The discussion centers on the woman who has the baby inside her more than the baby itself.
The job of a pro-abortionist is to convince the anti-abortionist that the fetus is not a human. Any other argument will never succeed in convincing anyone to allow abortion.
To the pro-abortionist that is irrelevant. All that matters is why the woman should have the right over her body denied to her. You must show why a womans body does not belong to her.
That's a bad argument. If you believe an unborn infant is a person, then you can't ignore someone else killing it. That's akin to "If you don't like child abuse, don't abuse children."
Personhood of the fetus seems irrelevant. Even if it is a person a woman should still have the right to an abortion. That is the point behind the classic pianist argument.
Your concept of not being a person till you pass a magic line doesn't make much sense. Which conjoined twin is a human, & which isn't. Simply declaring irrelevance isn't sufficient.
Birth is a very objective line. The issue of personhood is irrelevant because it changes nothing. Sure, call a fetus a person, but abortion is still fine.
You are arguing circles. A baby would not die if it was removed from the circulatory system the day before it would be born. Therefore, you just declared it a human.
Late term abortions are rare, and usually only happen due to medical complications. They are irrelevant as they would happen even if regular abortions were illegal.
That is not a contradiction at all. Abortions happen during the first trimester, except in extreme situations. Late term abortions are irrelevant to the issue of abortion rights.
I just had the same confusion. Memo now gives you notifications of replies to replies of yours, which makes it seem sometimes that someone is talking to you. Not sure I like it.
Seems the answer is after the first trimester. Sounds like a good point. Later abortions are only allowed for medical reasons, despite what Alex Jones claims.
