southern-feminism:
The reason “life at conception” sways so few people is because life does not begin at conception. Life was never absent. Sperm are alive. Ova are alive. They connect to make a zygote, which is alive. Life does not make something a person.
cultureshift:
You know very well that when people state that life begins at conception they mean a NEW individual human life unique from any other. We all know that life is a continuum. Each of us are, in effect, a single cell of the living human race. 384,000 human beings are born each day while 156,000 die. During the span of a single lifetime, each person, or ‘cell’, contributes to the collective, advancing the species year after year. As our population has grown, our civilization and technology has dramatically advanced. Every human being that is destroyed in the womb destroys enormous potential.
