"People who support the rights of women want to reduce abortions just as much as do those who would attack the rights of women. The goal to reduce abortions is the same." If that's true then you should stop supporting Planned Parenthood because they want to do as many abortions as they can to make as much blood money as possible. That's why they won't refer women for adoptions or let them see their own ultrasounds. Of course they will use ultrasound themselves to illegally alter their procedures as long as it aids in the harvesting of Human body Parts that they can sell, but I digress... "There is no scientific basis for a soul, so a secular state cannot make judgements or policy decisions based on this superstitious definition of personhood. Any scientific definition rests on brain development, as that is what gives us cognition, feeling, consciousness, awareness, and human being." The Science is clear and unambiguous. A new and genetically distinct Human Being exists from the moment of conception. It's the Pro Abortion side that is ANTI-SCIENCE "Of course none of the "arguments" for stripping women of their rights hold any water." Killing another Human Being without sufficient reason is not a right, it is a crime and should be treated as such. Roe V Wade will be overturned on the merits. "Additionally, simply having human DNA is not any sort of argument ... My bowel has human DNA." You are apparently ignorant of Science. Your bowel is not a distinct and whole Human Being, DUMMY! "human life is a brain activity" That's completely arbitrary and untrue. Brain activity comes naturally to an already living Human Being at a particular stage of development. It does not make the Human Being MORE ALIVE. Human Life begins at conception. Why are you so ANTI SCIENCE? "In order to grant personhood to a fetus, we would have to assign it a "soul"--..." You just finished claiming that souls don't exist and now you are claiming that Persons can't exist without Souls existing. You haven't thought your position through, have you? "or we would have to establish neocortical life. Even in the latter instance (which occurs after 6 months) one could still not violate the rights of the mother to her own body." Firstly that's a false dichotomy Human Beings are alive and worthy of respect and protection from the moment of conception. Secondly you demonstrate that you don't give a rip about the unborn when you claim that women have the right to kill their unborn babies even after 6months. That's why you are in favor of Partial Birth Abortions up to 9 months.
