...each with a unique DNA signature...

That's potential. A fertilized egg, within what...72 hours of conception? has a unique strand of DNA, separate from its parents' DNA. That is scientific individuality. We are human long before we are aware that we are human.

And no, I don't believe that a miscarriage is on par with an abortion, if you were wondering that. A miscarriage has more in common with death by natural causes of a post-natal human individual.

If it is our consciousness and self-awareness that make us human, wouldn't murder be legal through toddlerhood, possibly beyond?
