However, call me obstinate, it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have the best possible definitions of when that cognitive human being in the womb has rights as an individual (my best attempt to not say “life”/”alive”, for now).

I’m glad you agree that viability is not a good standard, so part of the discussion is just what is a good standard or should there be one at all? I don’t know what a better standard is, but I’m interested in finding out.

We *do* have a standard definition, we use that standard in hospitals every day to determine when is the end of a human life. Brain activity, it’s a person. No brain activity, it’s a package of parts that can be removed and passed around to others.
