And herein lies your sleight of hand: Personhood is a philosophical concept not a scientific one. A child doesn't have the same rights as an adult and a fetus doesn't have the same rights as a child.

What about the termination of a living brain dead adult?

What does society call that act? It calls it legal.

Society also calls abortion legal.
