Your spit is not a potential person
As I said, it's all a matter of the proper environment.
The current cloning techniques are not perfect, but they will get better in time. Even in the current form they could likely produce a fully fertile and functioning adult from a spit cell. There are problems with premature aging and birth defects.

There are lots of actions I would not want to witness, from the beheading of a cow destined for my big-mac to colo-rectal cancer surgery. Still that doesn't mean they should be banned. Nobody is forced to eat beef or have abortions.
