If you are religious (which I once was) it says in the old testament (Leviticus) that life is in the blood. So it would be logical to assume that once you start producing blood you are alive.
I feel that you have 8 weeks after the person is raped or was apart of incest to make sure you don't bring life into the world. Once you bring life into the world then it's your responsibility to take care of that life until it can sustain itself. The fetus is a innocent life that should not pay for the crimes of another. If the fetus is threatening the life of the mother I think then it's the mother's decision if she wants to abort it or not.
A fetus at 8 weeks doesn't have brain activity.
Did you just quote Leviticus? Seriously? Leviticus is without a doubt one of the most ridiculous pieces of literature ever. Modern day Christians are quick to disassociate themselves from Leviticus by claiming the Old Testament doesn't apply to them (except of course when they claim it does apply. Kinda like Rubio claiming he doesn't believe in science except when he claims he does believe in science.)
At what point do we all become sinners? Conception? Birth? Later?
