The Argument from Humanity asserts that the moral status of the fetus as a human being makes abortion immoral. The argument has three elements: (A) if the fetus is an innocent human being, then abortion is always (or perhaps almost always) immoral; (B) the fetus is an innocent human being; and (C) abortion is always (or perhaps almost always) immoral. Therefore, the best choice is D, because all three elements are necessary for the Argument from Humanity to hold.
