Personhood is a hot topic in pro-life circles, and Pro-Life Wisconsin is dedicated to achieving legal personhood for the unborn. But what exactly is legal personhood? What does it mean to be a person?continue at Pro-Life Wisconsin
In a nutshell, “person” is a legal term used to describe any human being entitled to equal protection under the law. If you’re legally recognized as a person, you have Constitutional rights. If you’re not a legal person, you don’t. The term “personhood”, then, is used to denote the pro-life movement that seeks to recognize the unborn as legal persons.
PLW is going to do a series of blog posts on Personhood.
Also via American Life League, an interesting video by CNN on Personhood.
