The author argues that baby Chance's survival proves unborn babies are real people. She points to how abortion supporters wanted him to die even after birth and kept calling him just 'cells' as proof they know fetuses are human but don't want to admit it.
Conclusion
The survival and thriving of baby Chance demonstrates that unborn children are individual human beings deserving of protection, not merely 'cells' or parts of their mothers' bodies
Premises
- Abortion activists openly called for baby Chance's death both before and after his birth, revealing they understand unborn babies are living human beings
- Media outlets continued to dehumanize Chance even after birth by referring to him as 'cells' rather than acknowledging his humanity
- Chance is now home, healthy, and thriving with his family, showing adorable pictures of him smiling and being hugged by his brother
- The activists' concern about setting a 'precedent' if Chance survived shows they fear recognition of fetal personhood
- Whether inside or outside the womb, abortion advocates wanted Chance's life to end, indicating their position is not about location but about denying personhood
Assumptions
- A baby's survival and normal development after birth proves their prior personhood in the womb
- Abortion activists' reactions reveal their true beliefs about fetal personhood
- The continuity of identity from fetus to born baby is self-evident
- Public reactions and media coverage accurately represent broader pro-choice positions
