Premise 2

Premise 2 is itself derived from two simple premises, which we will denote 2a and 2b:

Premise 2: Embryos and fetuses are human beings from conception AND To be a human being is sufficient to make one a person IMPLIES Unborn children are persons.

We will examine Premise 2b first and then return to Premise 2a.
