At what point does life devalue with age or accrue value in the womb, to enable these decisions to be made without conscience?

Conscience varies with values. Mine on abortion. http://helenpluckroseblogs.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/my-position-on-abortion.html … People decide whether their own lives have value or not.

Is Pro-life/ choice divide based on physical development? By dehumanising embryos we lower the value of life easing consciences

Or that could just be a more reasonable line for human rights than conception?

They could not indeed dovetail. Even my own view of limitations to abortions timing, are strongly against pro-life advocates

Who knows? We think physical development & pro-life think beyond physical to the soul from conception. There is No middle ground

Ability to survive is the line for you? Not whether it can think or feel?

No - it's where the child is "formed" - 10 weeks? and the focus is growth & maturity. My point re Guys was prior laws too broad

Why? Why is this better than brain function? Generally we go on brain function for life.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/825342315589951488 …
