The article says every person has a purpose. As I said before, people's opinions might differ on exactly when a person exists during the human developmental process, but as far as I know nobody has ever argued that unfertilized eggs are persons.
(Note that unfertilized eggs do not "evolve into" humans--only fertilized eggs do. So even on its own terms your argument is not valid.)
- immibis 2y agoUnfertilized eggs have the purpose of turning into fertilized eggs, which either are people or have the purpose of turning into people. I think if fertilized eggs are people, so are unfertilized eggs. There's really not much difference between them.
- pdonis 2y ago> Unfertilized eggs have the purpose of turning into fertilized eggs The article doesn't say or imply this. Unfertilized eggs aren't persons, and the article only says every person has a purpose. > I think if fertilized eggs are people, so are unfertilized eggs. There's really not much difference between them. Fertilization doesn't count as "much difference" to you? Hmm.
