The Importance of Intuition

I think that most people would say it is wrong to take a healthy fetus, permanently make them unconscious and do God knows what with them. The only thing that can explain why that's wrong is because that human fetus has a right to properly develop in virtue of being a person. There's two questions: Is this individual a person? And what should the punishments be for harming this person? We don't get the answer of the person question by answering the punishment one first. Otherwise, we're working backwards with our intuitions.
