If DEFINITIVE, CLEAR-CUT, IRREFUTABLE evidence came out that a fetus counted as a person in the same way that an adult woman does.

Others argue that it is ultimately the choice of the mother whether she wants to raise her child or not. Personally, I think both arguments become irrelevant if one accepts that a fetus is a human being; nobody can choose to kill someone else, except in self-defense, because otherwise it would be murder.

A fetus is not more important than the mother, just as I'm not more important than you. However, we don't have the right to kill each other, except in self-defense. I think the same applies in the former case as well.

I fail to see what is off topic. The topic, as I understand it, is the arguments behind why we support abortion. I asked him if he at any point was influenced to believe, as I read it, that the fetus is more important than the mother, how I perceive his argument. What, precisely, is off topic?

Not much, unless someone can demonstrate that an embryo is living (besides the classic, "science liez!")
