Do you honestly think that a just-fertilized egg is a person? You can’t even see it. And if you wait a few weeks, that embryo becomes something that you would scrape off your boots without a single thought.
And even if we are making the assumption that embryos are people- would say go ahead and kill them. While in the womb, embryos are nothing but parasites- they suck nutrients from a woman’s body and force her great inconvenience in the last months of that pregnancy. If she wants to scrape that parasite out of herself, I say go ahead.
Also, in response to all of the religious comments: I will accept ethical laws, but not moral ones. There is a difference between saying what is right or wrong, and evaluating what is more important in one situation or another. I don’t appreciate being told what to do by people who think some magic dude in the sky should tell everyone what to do. I am aware that the majority of America is Christian, but since when is this a country where we do not protect the rights and opinions of the minorities?
