Not until it's born.
In legal terms you become a person when you are born....but legally you can
define anything . Blacks in america were considerred a part person....so in
a way is the unborn child.
(I sometimes imagine a pessimistic situation in SA where the ANC decides
that I am not a person- a full person being defined as someone who is a
designated person(ie black....you cant use the euphinism minority here
because the whites are a minority) Together with another party ...say the
PAC who went around saying one settler one bullet(ie dont waste your
bullets) pass this and hey presto I can be aborted.)
I delibrately used these words however not for legal definition but to
humanise the unborn child ,
The point I make again is that definitions have very little to do with it.
Rather the world view of utilitarianism has become the dominant one.
That means that the all those who believe it in effect say that "I want to
maximise my utility (long term pleasure) by destroyng the fetus/ unborn
child. Maximising the societies utility, nor that of the fetus/child is not
my responsibility"
