Marquis also feels that everyone’s life has the same great value, so who are we to rob someone of theirs? He feels that killing a fetus deprives them of what they would value, or could value if given the chance. He also feels that above all it is seriously wrong to kill infants or kids.

His beliefs that if a fetus is classified as a human, it has a right to live, period.
