Enlighten me then. When does personhood happen? Otherwise reveal yourself as the hypocritical asshole you appear to be.

Actually, personhood happens when the law says it does. Historically, that is at birth.
However, with modern scientific knowledge of embryology and with modern medical practice, a good argument can be made for
personhood occurring when the fetus becomes viable outside the womb either with or without medical intervention.
This is typically around 7 1/2 months, and is certainly no earlier than the development of the brain and nervous system.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
