The contention that an embryo is a human subject is contended on the belief in a entity called "soul" which somehow inhabits a body and somehow contains human subjectivity, i.e. a mind.
Such a belief and therefore the contention stemming from it are in unambiguous contradiction with any scientific understanding of human embryology and neuropsychology.
In short, it's bunk.
An embryo is not a human yet, and terminating it is as morally contentious as using a barrier contraceptive method, coitus interruptus or abstinence. No human subjectivity was terminated, therefore no human was harmed in any way. It is, therefore, as ethical as any other common behavior.
