Of course, you know full well that the mass of cells is not undifferentiated anyway. But your "argument" fails based on the ontology of the genetic code contained therein.

Abortion is the premeditated unjust act of killing a defenseless human. Start there, and argue for it.


Now we are into definitions.

What does it mean to be human, and who decides?

Is the Sin of Onan, since it contains your genetic code also the same as a 100 million acts of murder?


Being human is easy. DNA answers that question. When the DNA says "human", you have a human.

Next?


So, a batch of eggs are fertilized in a fertility clinic. Are they now a person? If every single one is not implanted and not brought to term, is that "murder"? How about discarding the unused ones?

And by your DNA standard, flogging the dolphin is not "murder".
