The issue is that abortion kills an innocent Human Person, and no body has the "right" to do that.

I think you are being intentionally obtuse & little immoderate in using the phrase "human person" when referring to a blastosphere. . An early embryonic form such as that can only constitute a potential "human person" , and not a fully formed individual . Your ethical position seems too impracticably narrow from this arbited starting point, when faced with human realities and responsibilities.

Should there be rights afforded to this potential "person" ? I think we could say "yes" to this ...by starting firstly and hopefully with :

" Every child , a wanted child "

And one purely morally & ethically, could do as much good in the world that is to come to affirm always a special concern for the poor, the weak, the helpless, the widow, the aged and orphan.

Or you can debate ad-infinitum about whether a blastophere in a mother's womb is a "human person or not .
