Dude, that ain't science.
You actually think that scientifically, a 37-week "fetus" still in the womb is less alive than a 24-week preemie in an incubator?

It's just that Roe v Wade is a horrific mess based on out of date science.

if we accept the premise that an 8-month old fetus is not a person, that this is just some growth inside a body, then of course it's fully within that person's right to remove that growth without requiring governmental approval.
if we accept the premise that an 8-month old fetus is a person, then of course anyone's right to remove that person from their body is secondary to the fetus-person's right to live.
every non-monster agrees with these things. the problem is gaining universal agreement on the premise, especially along the continuum from conception to birth.
that's because if there is a right answer, we have no means by which to discover it. right now this is a question of faith and philosophy.
despite that, about 40 years ago 7 lawyers presumed to speak for everyone on such matters, and people are rightfully upset about it.
