I believe that debate over abortion eventually comes down to whether a fetus is a person or not, cmv.

I believe that the principal point of contention with regards to abortion is ultimately whether a fetus has the rights of a person and that other issues are secondary. (In case it comes up, I am pro-choice). I'm not arguing whether or not fetus have these rights, or at what point a fetus would gain these rights, just whether this issue is the central one to the abortion debate.


If one believes that a fetus is a person, then  they would be pro-life. This view would imply theat abortion would be the moral equivalent to murder (except in cases where the mother's life is at risk). All other issues, such as a woman's right to her body would be secondary, as saving a life - forgoing an abortion- comes first morally. Many pro-lifers feel that personhood begins at conception, hence they feel that abortion at any stage of pregnancy is wrong)


If one feel that a fetus is not a person, then they would be pro-choice. Although one might dislike abortion, if one does not feel a fetus is a person, then abortion would not be equivalent to killing someone. In this case, a woman's right to her body would come first.

Legally, the right to your own body comes before somebody else's right to live. You cannot force someone to give up organs, blood, or any other part of their body to save someone else. In this line of thinking, the personhood of the fetus is irrelevant since no matter the answer, a woman can still get an abortion.
