Well then how is it a relevant argument? Are you against exceptions made when the plug is pulled on someone who is brain dead? Or abortion? Simply having human DNA shouldn't be the first and last argument as to your "right to life". I'm sure your first argument would be that someone who is brain dead or a fetus doesn't have consciousness or something similar, but I'd ask you whether you thought the consciousness of someone like Ted Bundy or Adolf Hitler was really like that of a "normal" human being, and if it was really worth preserving?
