When the RNA strip from a sperm cell combines with the RNA from an egg cell, that is a person.
That is how I define a person, and how a person SHOULD be defined. Why? Because the moment they join a new human being begins developing. Within hours the pattern of a human has begun building the base blocks, followed by more focused blocks of cells... and so on until the baby comes to term.
The moment of conception is the creation of a new person.
Every person has the right to life. We don't get to decide whether that person should live or die, every effort should be made to protect that life which cannot fend for itself, and cannot make any decisions for itself.
The embryo is NOT part of the woman's body no matter how much abortion right advocates say that it should. That is a person. It has been genetically defined and has begun growing.
There are no arguments that can counter that.
Do they feel pain at that point? No. Does that give you the right to terminate their life?
Giving the right to abort is tantamount to saying that random people should have the right over another person's life (an innocent person by the very nature of the fact they could have done nothing to sin against God or commit a crime against another person). It is saying that "you know what, that person is a bother to me, I will kill him/her."
I am not attempting to lay guilt upon women who have already had abortions. They have been taught for many years from a young age that abortion is "OK." They had no way of knowing since so many people in society who speak so loudly and aggressively and have declared it so, that it is still wrong.
Every human being has INTRINSIC value and a BASIC RIGHT TO LIFE. Every one. No matter race, no matter how they were conceived.
