Abrahamic religions are very clear that life begins upon the first breath. You do not breather in your mother’s womb, hence you are not alive.

Only in recent years have politicized “Christian” phonies spread the heresy that “life begins at conception.”



Pro Choice based on scripture.
This is interesting.

It’s life but not totally. There are other factors.

Yeah, take this over to religion or even politics. You are stirring the pot.


At conception, you are cells dividing.

Think about the tax ramifications of that a minute.

Agree, child support for men who get women pregnant and then abandon them should start then too

When you're talking about preemies, they will use expected due date as a measure for things like milestones.

As someone who's had miscarriages, though, no, conception is not the same thing as birth, not even close.

Because the whole world doesn’t really need to know when exactly my partner and I had sex!

I’ll bite. They don’t even measure gestational age during pregnancy from conception, it’s measured from your last menstrual period. So technically, the clock starts even before conception.

But also conception is hard to pinpoint and birth is more definite.

And also, you know, when life begins.

True, but conception date is estimated. Birth date is certain and easily recorded.
