in 1973, the 24 week figure was decided upon because at the time, 24 weeks was considered the earliest an unborn child would be viable outside the womb. With our technology today, many premature babies are surviving being born before 24 weeks... I was trying to discuss the legal/illegal, right/wrong issues of abortion. I think the supreme court made a mistake but thought if I'm wrong, it would be easy to show where I was wrong in thinking an unborn child begins at conception. Some say brain activity, some say only after it's born, some say a heartbeat... So when is an unborn child a child or an "inconvenience"? Because the mother says so? If we follow that logic, then a mother should be able to eliminate her offspring at any time...
