This is 1 of 2 threads that I have created to help offload another thread that I have created.
Many of the people that I have spoken with accept the human rights of the fetus, but feel that the bodliy autonomy argument trumps this and therefore is a moral justification for abortion. I have started to address that on another thread.
However, there is a significant percentage of people who feel that a fetus or human organism in the embryonic stage is not a right bearer. This is a seperate but very interesting question that I would like to discuss seperately from the above the question because they are truely unrelated.
First is use the term human organism because that seems the most accurate:
An embryo is an early stage of development of a multicellular diploid eukaryotic organism.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo
Embryo is a STAGE of the human organism, not a SEPARATE entity.
Therefor if an embryo or a fetus does not in your opinioin bear human rights then what is necessary to bear these rights and why?
If it does then this thread is not for you.
Thanks
