But I still do not view fetuses as people until certain criteria are met, most of which happens in the third trimester. Viability outside the womb, higher brain function, etc.
People are in no position to determine who qualifies as being a person.
The crazy thing is you're fine with a fetus not having the status of a person, yet a corporation has the status of a person and they exist only on paper and meet none of the requirements you listed.
Yeah, actually, I think we are in a position to determine who qualifies for personhood status since we're the only ones making definitions. And I didn't have a hand in drafting up the law on corporations, so it's not like I agree with it.
