Quote by: Captain Chaos  It is not a question of whether it is considered human. I mean, for this thread, that is the question. I agree that a human's life begins at conception.
The question is, do we apply rights to a human without a personality. In our society, we do not. The law allows killing the brain dead for organs, and the law allows abortion. |
It's the mother's right to privacy. The laws have all taken into consideration when life begins, and so forth, but because this life is so dependant it has no rights till a certain point, and this is to be determined by the doctor, and the mother. This is the right to privacy by law.
I don't think it's got anything to do with personality, it's the mother's rights.
