fetuses are essentially parasites that grow within the mothers body

a fetus cannot survive on its own without the mother, hence it is not alive

just as any person has a right to remove a tapeworm from their body, mothers have the right to remove fetuses from theirs

the world already had 8 billion people. that's enough imo

That’s a bit harsh, but not untrue.

I like how the Jews approach it. You start life with your first breath and end it with your last breath. Ergo fetuses are part of the mother, not a separate life - until the point of viability when they can survive on their own.

genesis 2:7-8 hits the nail on the head

"then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and *breathed into his nostrils the breath of life*, and the man became a living creature."
