Abortion is wrong because killing a innocent human being is wrong

You're smuggling a definition into what should be a factual question. "Innocent human being" assumes the moral status you're trying to prove, not evidence for it. A fetus at eight weeks has no capacity for suffering, autonomy, or social relationships. A born person does. The difference isn't semantic—it's fundamental to why we distinguish between potential life and actual personhood. If potential matters morally, then contraception is murder and every miscarriage is a tragedy requiring investigation. You don't believe that. So your real argument isn't about "human beings" broadly—it's about when that status begins. That's a philosophical claim, not a biological fact. What makes a clump of cells deserve rights a conscious person does?

You're so called clump of cells is going to be dehumanizing what we know biologically as a human being, because its a whole organisme from the species homo sapiens. Human rights , such as the right to life shouldnt be granted once we hit a certain level of sentient , or the capacity for consciouness because that would almost be arbitrayr, given the fact that consciouness is a human who is conscious, not knows exactly when that comes , its different for most fetus, and animals might be more conscious than a 1 year old either way.

You've just demolished your own position. If consciousness is arbitrary and unreliable, then you can't ground rights in biology either—biology doesn't tell you which organism deserves moral status, only that it exists. A virus is also a whole organism. So is a cancer cell. "Human species membership" is your real criterion, but that's arbitrary too. Why does genetic code matter morally while consciousness doesn't? You admit animals might be more conscious than infants, yet you wouldn't abort infants. This proves you're not actually following the logic—you're asserting species membership as a brute fact, then calling it objective. That's circular. If an arbitrary threshold is unacceptable, species membership is equally arbitrary. Pick your actual principle and defend it.
