However, as for abortion, the argument couldn't be any simpler: Abortion blatantly infringes on an unborn child's right to life, and since the primary purpose of the Federal government is to protect our God-given rights, including the right to life, a ban is completely within their power and authority to impose on the Several states. One way the liberals try to get around this argument is to say that the unborn don't fully qualify as human beings during certain stages of development while inside the mother's womb, and therefore aren't protected under the Constitution. For some reason, if you call an unborn person a zygote, embryo or fetus instead of a child, this dehumanizes them enough where terminating their life through abortion becomes somehow more acceptable to society. It also reinforces the false notion that an unborn child is the merely the property of it's mother so long as it resides inside her belly, and that she can simply snuff out it's life if the prospect of giving birth and raising it suddenly becomes unappealing enough to her. This is of course complete nonsense. In the end, it doesn't matter what stage of development an unborn child is in; it's still a life regardless of what you choose to call it, and is entitled to the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness like everybody else. There is no other definition. Those who argue for abortion are no better than the ones who argued 150+ years ago that blacks weren't entitled to rights under the Constitution because they didn't qualify as full human beings. The only difference with abortion is that we're now talking about human beings that are still inside their mothers' wombs. (At least blacks had the ability to speak up and defend themselves somewhat, but the unborn couldn't be any more helpless and have to completely rely on us for the preservation of their lives so they can have the chance to be born and go on to pursue their definition of happiness.)
