From the pro-abortion Ayn Rand Institute:
“[A]bortion rights advocates keep hiding behind the phrase “a woman’s right to choose.” Does she have the right to choose murder? That’s what abortion would be, if the fetus were a person. The status of the embryo in the first trimester is the basic issue that cannot be sidestepped.
The embryo is clearly prehuman; only the mystical notions of religious dogma treat this clump of cells as constituting a person.”
Leonard Peikoff “Abortion Rights are Pro-Life” Ayn Rand Institute, January 17, 2003
Below: Pictures of embryos/fetuses in the first trimester. Are these clumps of cells? Is it a “mystical motion” to see these babies as human?
