That was a totally lame response to a very poignant question. My argument is not an argument Infanticide was once practiced as widely as abortion is today, and civilization was advanced by its abolition, not destroyed. Your argument could have been used back then with only a minor change. Imagine if fifty percent of women had killed at least one child, by the time they were 45. Making infanticide illegal would make all those women criminals.

The world as we know it would come to an end!

"My statement was not a silly one. If you wish to pretend that society can grant personhood to an embryo without it leading into criminal and cibvil charges on a daily basis, and without destroying the ethical framework that our social mores and our legal case law upholds and advances, then you are only pretending."
The question was easy. Please give examples of what the hell you are talking about? I can't say I blame you for ducking it. I wouldn't lay claim to an "argument" like that either.

I'm still waiting for your answer about D.S fetus's. Are you afraid? Please try to make your answer as "cibvil" as possible
