Nah, I'll take your word for it. I'm not the one attempting to make a case thus I have none I need to defend. But in good charity I'll admit my own parameters are not terribly solid, at least compared to the confidence level that's been on display in this thread. That's as far as I'll be baited into that briar patch on this day.
It's unusual to encounter someone who's not terribly sure how to tell what a human is. Maybe you should figure that one out before you try to weigh in on more complex questions.
Oh you got me, I'm someone who both refuses to pretend to have worked out a complex question and unwilling to simply take the pulpit's word for it, It's actually laughable that you would come at me for not having solved in my own mind something the world at large is unable to remotely work out. I'm simply not prepared to weigh in. Or rather, maybe the self-righteous 'authorities' making the case for resolving complex questions should do better than constructing simpleton caricatures that even a gobshite like me can easily tear the whole thing down. This is exactly why the movement has spent decades spinning its wheels sliding backwards anytime it isn't hitched to some other political identity football.
Feel free to check the record, but why don't you tell us your parameters for determining what a human being is?

Seth is going to outlaw miscarriages. That should help the cause.
The difference between abortion and miscarriage is the difference between heart disease and homicide.
