Nobody believes abortion is murder
RE: Nobody believes abortion is murder
A brain is bar none required to even approach personhood.

A brain past an unspecified stage of development is a person.

Ergo, an human or other analogous organism of comparable rights possessing of a brain past a stage of development that confers to it realistic development of being or "personhood" should be considered protected in some sense, albeit less than other groups at latter stages.

If we never could "know" the point at which a fetus progresses into the stage of development where it most certainly is a person than the following applies:

An embryo at a few weeks is magnitudes more less of a "person" than a fetus at a few months is magnitudes less of a person than a viable premature infant.

If we can determine such a point, then anything prior to that point is fully devoid of rights.

Thus I'd make the argument that a few week old embryo is no more human than any other mass of undifferentiated tissue.

A lot of the "abortion" argument seems to stick it's dick into the late term abortions, which are the most heavily regulated and risky ones.

Then the claim is against all abortions. As if a partial late term abortion sets the model for all abortions.

Its really stupid -- if it's not human yet, then it is okay to destroy it.

One can always make another pre-human anytime.
