Not to mention that the body inside the woman is not actually her body. Therefore, as the child is merely within her temporarily and not part of her, she has no right to destroy it.

Correct. DNA evidence is now well established in criminal courts. DNA analysis of any fetus would qualify it in a court as a different person than the woman carrying it. So the determinants about what make it a separate person under the law are time and position. If the baby's head clears the vaginal walls, it becomes a person. Could we therefore pass a law that says that people are only people when they are on the first floor of their house but not the second? Could we also say that we can legally kill someone before noon, but not after?

I completely agree. If you believe in the Bible, you know that your body is not even your own.

"What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." -- I Corinthians 6:19-20

Yep. The whole "it's just a piece of flesh" argument is ridiculous. If it's just a piece of her flesh, why does it have different DNA?

Correct you only have 2 arms 2 legs. Not 4 arms 4 legs.
