Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor famously stated in 1983 that  Roe v. Wade is "on a collision course with itself” considering ongoing advances in medical science. Roe contains the seeds of its own destruction since the Court's basic premise, that abortions should be allowed before the baby is "viable" outside the womb, disintegrates over time with advances in medical...
