Look, Koga, I have been trying to respect your opinions on the subject. I could have started ranting about your opinions, but I haven't. The least you can do is show respect for my stance on the issue.
Now, to your question. If the law decided that a fetus was a person, I would take that on board. Don't forget I mentioned personal opinion - the law simply decides what is right and wrong, or rather, legal or illegal, but it doesn't mean we cannot form our own, personal opinions on something.
No one is going to prevent you from believing abortion is murder, and that the fetus is a person. You are entitled to your views, after all.
About this statement: 'What's right is right and what's wrong is wrong. The law is not the absolute definition of right and wrong'.
No, it isn't, I agree with you there. For example, the law in some US states has decided that the death penalty should be legal. I disagree with the death penalty, because I don't believe it is right. The law does, but despite that fact, I am not forced to think that it is okay, as I have my own opinions on the subject.
The point is that everyone sees things differently. What may seem wrong to you may seem right to another person. That's why there are so many differing opinions on this subject.
