ustwo was exactly correct 4 pages ago. this whole argument is a secondary argument to the ultimate question of the ethics of abortion in general. only after that has been decided, in regards to the status of the fetus, can this argument be anything other than posturing and putting together a personal ethics that has embedded within it the way a particular person feels about the fetus. the rest of this is nice, but it can't be proven one way or the other.

When is ethics ever
not personal? When has any ethics
ever been proven?
