Can one be two? A synopsis of the twinning and personhood debate.

Mark Rankin.   

Abstract

It has been argued that the possibility of monozygotic twinning disproves the conservative position on foetal personhood that defines the foetus as a person from conception. This article will canvass arguments for and against this proposition, in order to arrive at a conclusion as to the relative strength of this finding.
