Apparently it's not relevant, because you disregard it whenever you don't agree with it.Dyakovo wrote:Nulono wrote:Says who?Personhood wrote:being a person"Person wrote:A person is most broadly defined as any individual self-conscious or rational being, or any entity having rights and duties; or often more narrowly defined as an individual human being in particular.Nulono wrote:Your excuse was "No, because at that point the child is legally a person.". Is legal personhood relevant or not?
Yes, legal personhood is relevant. Acknowledging legal personhood as relevant is not, however, the same thing as saying that it is the only thing that is relevant. So you can quit building straw men.
Fetuses are not "things that will be children"; they are children.Umbagar wrote:Arilando wrote:Yes but afterwards she can choose to have an abortion, dont she have the right to do so? Also abortion saves live, there is a higher change of dying giving birth than dying having an abortion.
At some point a fetus is still a child. I believe that you get 1 choice in whether or not to have a baby, which is when you decide to have sex. Killing off things that will be children on a whim is immoral in my opinion.
An abortion is, by definition, the termination of a pregnancy after, resulting in, accompanied by, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus. Anyone who is alive, by definition, was not aborted.Fartsniffage wrote:Nulono wrote:Abortion has a 100% chance of death.
