Define Person


Person-hood has been in the news a lot since the Amendment 26 issue.  I invite Pro Choice/Pro Life advocates, Philosophers, and anyone interested on this issue to define what a Person is.




Your comment should reflect these questions:

  • What is a Person?

  • When does an organism or thing become a Person?

  • Can a Person lose Person-hood?

  • If sentience is a requirement for Person-hood, are infants or adults/elderly with Alzheimer's Persons?

  • Who or what grants Person-hood?
