Yes, why do you think that some scientists don't have ethical and philosophical issues against abortion? The fallacy is when the lines between them are blurred. science is based on facts, and what a life is, is not arguable as they are based on scientific facts- but you, as a scientist can still have issues with abortion based on ethical, and other issues. Like I said many times, facts are by definition not arguable and science is based on facts, thus non arguable. I can still have issues with abortion based on scientific facts due to my ethical standards. I don't understand why that usvso hard to grasp. They are not mutually exclusive, and it doesn't make my argument a scientific one just because I'm a scientist.
This question is simply an ethical and philosophical and religious one, science is clear on the issue, but obviously, I have to repeat, I can have both an understanding of what scientific facts say, and still, ethically not agree with abortion.
See, time of abortion isn't a scientific question, at all, science don't dabble with opinions, and time of abortion is just that. All science do, is state facts. Let me is something that can be clearly defined, time of abortion is not, science doesn't get involved in that, science can define what an abortion is, but that is where science ends on the question. Science is by definition concerned about the "what", not the " why", that is the job of philosophy. And as such, science can only answer the"what" about abortion, nothing else, I.e., define what abortion is, anything beyond that is no longer science
For it to be science, it has to be proven, until then, its philosophy. Life has been defined and proven, thus fact and science. As an example the string theory, is still not prove so technically, its not science but philosophy and De Grasse would agree with that
