Unfortunately I can not eat cookies..I am allergic to gluten :/ I outlined my reasons for classifying fetus' as human beings in my first post and the following few posts. If and only if a fetus is a human being than abortion is murder. I am arguing that point. Beccs, the problem with your definition is it confuses human beings with their functionality instead of their ontology (what that thing actually is.) Not to mention the ethical issues that would result from such a view not even counting abortion.
Wrong. Murder is the unlawfully killing of another person. Abortion is the lawful killing Of a fetus. It doesn't qualify as murder.
