Except that there is more to the equation than just an “unborn child”. There is the host/mother who carries that child and is it’s life support system for 36 weeks until it can survive on its own.Can a 4 year old live independently without adult intervention/care? No they cannot. Even scientist arguing cloning have agreed that life begins at conception. https://www.princeton.edu/~prolife/articles/embryoquotes2.html
Obviously its not "life" since we all know a baby, children, most teenagers and some adults can't survive without other taking care of them.
https://www.icr.org/article/cloning-redefining-when-life-begins-exposing-flaws or the pdf https://www.icr.org/i/pdf/imp/imp-310.pdf and its argued and even considering Davis vs Davis, they give a 14 day window of pre-embryo to embryo, which is already agreed in the scientific community, to have created life.
Using the argument of "independent of the host" is a poor argument at best. Really, those that just support abortion, ie killing of unborn children, tout that support proudly. Say it out loud to yourself, "I thinking killing an unborn child is perfectly justifiable and is morally acceptable."
To each his own, but those that support abortion really don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to any argument concerning doing XY and Z to "save a life," it simply a moral decision they have made.
What the anti-abortinists think is that the host/mother should no longer have a say in what happens to her own body, simply because there is a ***** growing in it.
Flip the script: What if you were told that because you impregnated a woman, you no longer had a right to choose what happened to your own body? Want a tat? Nope. Want that elective surgery that is risky? Nope.
Want to go have *** with another woman? Not allowed. Your body is not yours.
An extreme example, but it speaks to the reality of Roe v Wade. I wonder how many male anti-abortionists woul be willing and happy to rescind control of their body to legislation like we may see.
Legislation that is not even the decision of the MAJORITY of our country.
