Definition of Person »Definition of PersonDefinition of Person☜Central to the debate about abortion is the question of what defines a person. Often, the point of stasis in this debate involves the moment that a persons life begins and when their rights as such should be recognized by society.☜FFB597

Mind is not a requirement for personhood »Mind is not a requirement for personhoodMind is not a requirement for personhood☜U.S. courts have already held that children born with anencephalia are human beings / persons and are worthy of the equal protections of our laws. Despite the fact that they are born with only a brain stem and no cerebral cortex and despite the fact that they have no capacity for thoughts, feelings or self awareness. Also, recent fetal homicide laws which make it a crime of murder to kill a child in the womb during a criminal act do not require the victim to be able to think or feel pain. ☜FFFACD
