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.
And what am I to think as an outsider looking at the religious folks with (by their oft stated beliefs) a specific definition of a person clearly delineated in their Holy Scriptures, and that definition is almost universally ignored ? And that ignorance of their Scriptures is compounded by noisy demonstrations, fund raising campaigns, and overt attempts at having their false and essentially disordered definition of personhood codified in secular law ??
(and let's review something here: heresy denotes the formal denial or doubt of a core doctrine of the Christian faith)
And we see those same folks, with their manifest heretical take on a core doctrine; the definition of 'person', are nevertheless also out proselytizing for new members in all manner of ways!
What can a heretic actually offer me in regards to my personal Salvation through belief in Jesus Christ that I can't get from an 'open and notorious' Satan worshipper? What would be the difference ?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
