Abortion is morally wrong

[Mister Agenda]

Thank you for the warm welcome, everyone! 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.

Here's some ontology for you: something that doesn't have even a rudimentary brain is not a human being, is arguably not a 'being' at all, and most human it can be is genetically human. And note the way you add ad hoc qualifiers if someone points out that a biopsy is genetically human (completely so!). It takes more than a sequence of molecules to be a human being.
