We all have aduty to defend the basic rights of people, one of those basic rights you hear so much about includes life. Would you not agree that thisright is bestowed upon us the day that our existence is recognizable? How would we classify recognizable life? Are we considered alive once the chromosomes mix or are we considered recognizable once we can be visually seen? Would development matter, if it does matter, then when do we consider it a human that has all of their basic rights? Does the fetus deserve to live if it has an illness that will affect it during their whole life?
Almost all of the debates about abortion always lead back to the same thing, development. Certainly the fetus is not alive until you can visuallysee it, right? Who cares if the fetus has a heartbeat or the DNA of an human, it still is not as developed as you and I so it does not deserve our rights. I guess if it's some sort of alien then it wouldnot deserve our basic rights to life anyways. This is a very scaryplatform to stand on, the argument of development will ruin human equality.
Once the chromosomes mix, it is clear that some sort of life exists. What kind of life would exist once those chromosomes mix though; could the life possibly be alien? How did this alien life get into the female though? I highly doubt that a alien impregnates all the childbearing women, to many things would not add up. For one, why would the alien wait until the guy makes 'love' with the female? Why does the DNA in that fetus match the basic sequence of human DNA in all humans?
Lets just assume that the fetus was created from the formation of the chromosomes; would this be enough of a qualification to be a human?Some would say no, so I ask you, what could the fetus be if both of its biological parents are human? Of course it is a human life, it's just in the early stage of development.
Now, we have just concluded that a human is created once the chromosomes mix, when does that human deserve its rights? Some would try to say that it is 'just' a fetus thus it does not deserve to live its life. Using this sort of argument is bad, my sisters are just females so does that give me the right to kill them? Technically speaking, a baby is not self aware before it is 2 or 3 years old. What would allow this baby to be anymore special than a fetus? The baby looks human thus it deserves the rights, at least that is what we've been told in a ominous way. This would wreck human equality, after all why would someone who was born dis-formed deserve the same rights as me? See the irony in all of this?
Once a person exists, it does not matter what stage of development they're in, the person deserves all of our basic rights: life, liberty, and freedom. The woman loses the right to do whatever she would like to do to her body once she has a fetus inside of her, She's responsible for both of their lives, she does not get to decide when the child dies.
Here is something you should think about though; if someone brings you into this world, do they have the right to kill you?
