What is the scientific question?
It's a philosophical/moral/religious question as to whether (or at what point) a fetus she be afforded the generally assumed human right to live, particularly in light of the inherent conflict of any such rights with the mother's right of self-determination. Where does science enter the equation, other than identifying possible relevant times subsequent to conception which might provide some philosophical guidance?
