    through her article‚ “A Defence of Abortion” is one that adopts the premise that the fetus is a human being from the moment of conception. By doing this‚ Thomson is distancing her argument from the various theorists who maintain the moral view that it is wrong to kill another human being‚ such as (Marquis‚ 1989).

    views of the abortion debate. Most of the debate is if the fetus is considered a human or not is the main argument. For the pro-life side of the abortion debate‚ they mainly say that it should be considered human. Of course the pro-choice feel just the opposite usually.
