PZ Myers Sunday Sacrilege blog: "An embryo is not a person"
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2010/04/sunday_sacrilege_an_embryo_is.php

After PZ Myers spoke at the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point he was inspired to write this. He debunks the cliched religious reich anti-abortion talking point that embryos are people and thus abortion is murder. He even retouches some anti-abortion billboards to conform to biology! Good stuff.

The comments section is rather disconcerting though.
