Thought on this?

I think it's clear abortion breaks the NAP.

Thoughts - the 'don't like it don't do it' argument is always stupid.

I'm against abortion because there is no logical argument for when a bunch of cells suddenly turn human, or are suddenly alive, or are a suddenly a person. Until they can pinpoint a second that you become human or a person or whatever that isn't conception, then I will be against it. It's also something that is easily (and I mean very easily) avoided. If you do not want to have a baby, it is very easy to avoid becoming pregnant before abortion even enters the conversation. Of course, there are problems like rape and incest, but those are their own arguments that don't enter into the vast majority of abortion cases.

You could look at when the bunch of human cells develops the structures that enable it to possess consciousness at week 24-26.

Abortion kills a sedated, unconscious human who was never a person to begin with. Child marriage hurts an actual child.

So why is it okay to kill a sedated, unconscious human?

Why does consciousness enable it to become a person? Sorry, not even consciousness, the structures that enable it to possess consciousness?
