Non-viability = Not a person = No rights
Unless of course you believe humans have souls. I do not subscribe to that belief. It has no scientific basis and is nothing more than magical thinking]
By your convoluted logic, only humans within certain parameters have “rights”. Even a right to life. So I’m assuming that you’re definition of “viability” includes people with severe physical and/or mental disabilities? If that is true, basically you are saying that the disabled aren't really “persons” and therefore; do not have “rights”. Who decides the big question of viability? What exactly does that mean? Does a cancer patient that cannot walk cease to have “viability”?
Throughout history, personhood, rights, etc., has varied upon whom you ask, but civilized societies seem to have achieved some consensus on the issue, which you obviously choose to ignore.
