gollark: Why, though? Why require it for a fetus, which will with some fairly high probability be born and then with some also fairly high (with modern medicine) probability go on to grow up and whatever, but not something with a lower chance of becoming a person?
gollark: Why *humans*, then?
gollark: Can you objectively prove that they have some sort of moral worth, though?
gollark: I see. Again, I'd say they aren't a person/child/whatever (but are a human body) at the time.
gollark: But you were saying that people should *not* have sex if they don't want children. Which stops those children who would otherwise exist from existing.
