I am puzzled about the difference between potential life and life among humans. If all potential human life should have the same rights as post-birth humans as you seem to imply, wouldn't that result in the following:
All miscarriages would result in murder charges, although I suppose one could get over if it was shown in court that the miscarriage was not due to any negligent behavior on the part of the mother. As others have pointed out, wouldn't proper enforcement of this law mean that we would have to hire hundreds of thousands of menstrual police to be sure that each unimplanted egg was not the result of maternal misbehavior.
Once any artificial womb is invented, all women would be forced to have 50,000 children as that is the number of eggs, or potential humans, each woman is born with.
And to be fair, since every sperm is also sacred, and once united with an egg, a potential human life, shouldn't male masturbation and nocturnal emissions also be prosecuted? Perhaps we could use a special unit of the menstrual police, like a sperm squad or something, with special training and all.
Maybe to help relieve the onerous burden placed upon law enforcement such laws would entail we could teach it in the schools and churches to turn in offenders, even give them rewards like a pair of blue jeans. Hey they do it with drugs here and it worked to some degree against dissidents in the former Soviet Union.
Have you considered the inevitable conclusions of your position?
