Rationalization.
I wanted to add this to the end of my previous post, but forgot;
I'd have a much easier time and be less argumentative if someone just said. Here's the line. You can abort before here but not after here. Health reasons, personal reasons...whatever. But don't (anyone) try to sit there and put a pretty bow on the reasoning by trying to tell me "it's not a real person yet". BS. Just make your decision and live with it.
Viability is what they use to determine these things. Whether or not it is a real person is something that is philosophical in nature and not something I get into a debate about. My entire stance on being pro-choice is that if an abortion happens and you consider the embryo/fetus to be a person there are rights being violated, if abortion is prohibited from happening then there are rights being violated. Therefore, since there is a guarantee of rights being violated no matter the decision it should not be a government decision but one left to the people personally involved. I abhor abortion, but that is my decision, and I live with it quite happily.
