Then you argue that it has to be unique DNA. I'm confused about your view on this.
And, you still haven't answered my other question about being force to become someone's dialysis...
My argument is very simple:
A human fetus is a human being because she/he is an entity with human DNA. A human fetus is also not a tumor/cyst/body part of the mother because it has a separate set of DNA from that of the mother. That's just simple, basic biology.

I offered a "what if" type scenario. How would you feel about that if you were forced to have a toddler in kidney failure attached to you for the purpose of using your kidneys? Or, alternatively, having one of your kidneys or part of your liver removed, by force, to give to someone else.
