And while we're at it, I'd like to add a few components to this amendment:
Extended Personhood. Unfertilized eggs and sperm will also be granted special "pre-personhood" rights, as they are fundamental to building the nucleus that eventually becomes the zygote that transforms into the little person that is the image of God. Women are now required to save the results of their menses and submit monthly reports to the Mississippi Association for Christian Advocacy for Personhood (MAsCAP). Failure to do so will result in a $600 fine and 5 months in jail. Men who donate their sperm will be charged with murder.
Anti-PETA Personhood Addendum (APPA). Animal rights advocates who claim poultry eggs must now be outlawed are to be ignored by all state and federal governments. Animals don't have souls, and thus we can eat their eggs without remorse.
Incest and Rape Vital Care. If a child is created as a result of rape or incest, health officials will now make sure that that child has a complete, healthy family life by mandating that the raper or the incestful family member join in matrimony with the rapee. They will be required to live together until death do they part.
Minor Changes. All changes made to this amendment will be decided on by prayer.
