Letting a fertilized egg die is not murder.
As for abortion, fetuses do not have rights, women do have rights.
I think abortions should be free and allowed to around 8-10 weeks. There is nothing wrong with removing a little wart growing on the uterus wall.
When that wart becomes a viable child, I do have a problem with killing that child. If it is between a woman's life and the baby, I would say a woman should be saved, not the baby.
What you guys are proposing is that fertilized human eggs should have a legal 'person' status. That is just ridiculous.
A fertilized egg is just a bunch of cells on a petri dish. Murder? You guys are irrational.
Fertilizing an egg and making a human being by this fertilization is what we are talking about. Doing the fertilizing without preparing for life for the human so created is negligent homicide in common language, not legal language.
The woman gave up some of her rights when she placed herself in the position of being trustee for another human.
Removing a human life is different that removing a wart.
Determining when the embryo/fetus becomes a human life is judgmental. Nobody can make such a determination accurately. To do so means that the judgment could be at age 10, or at age 20, or at any other age. This is part of the reason we have wars. One group of humans says that another group of humans should be exterminated.
No! Humans should NOT have legal "person" status. See https://redress4dummies.files.wordpress.com/2018/03/office-of-person1.pdf.
A fertilized human egg is simply a stage in human life. Legal murder at this stage sets the stage to make it legal at any stage.
If you are so against human life, why are you not suiciding yourself? Just a question. Don't do it. Your troubles will only be beginning if you do. You will have to face God in the judgment for your own murder.
EDIT: Banning stem cell research is the only safe way we can keep from murdering people... at this stage of our knowledge. Why? Because we don't know much about the epigenetic markers that control stem cells for making a human being. Once we know about and can control the epigenetic markers, so that we don't accidentally make a human (that we kill later), then (maybe) we can go ahead with such research in a right way.
