"...genetically distinct Human Being with cells from your nose?" Because cloning creates a fertilized egg just as intercourse or artificial insemination does. Scientifically, the fertilized egg is not a distinct human life because it could well divide into identical twins (like any other fertilized egg). But it is homo sapien life. Just because this dna from my cells can be inserted into the nucleus of an egg to make a human life does not mean that these millions of cells are human PERSONS. "The same Society BTW that also refused to acknowledge Blacks and Women as "Persons"" Well no. I'm referring to modern society. In any event, we don't re-instate slavery simply because modern society thinks it wrong. We ought to trust that modern society is doing a lot of things right since getting somewhat removed from the morality of the church and the slavery and racism and genocide noted in church history and sacred literature. "That's the kind of thing that was said of Blacks so that they could be traded" The Christian slave traders acting on biblical authority are not the only elements responsible for slavery. There were others. And your argument is what? Blacks are human persons so carrots and fertilized eggs are also human persons? Sorry, you are just weird. "If the life that is taken is no more than a piece of fluff then no justification is needed". You probably misunderstood the sentence. I said: "And we both agree that abortions are unfortunate necessities in the harm they sometimes do to the mother." Now, if you don't find harm to the mother from an abortion to be unfortunate then bully for you. Perhaps you find harm done to something that cannot experience or encounter any harm to be unfortunate, do you?? But not actual harm to a real living sentient conscious person... "Sorry; strictly catch and release." Any pain involved in that? Do they start to gasp for air or squirm or thrash wildly about trying desperately to reach water and oxygen?
