If Life Doesn’t Begin at Conception, Then Where do We Draw the Line?
At week 8, the embryonic period is over and the fetal
stage begins
by

It is a scientific fact that life begins at conception. Live Action has already covered this at length, with an abundance of statements from experts in the field. Pieces have also been written to further demonstrate the humanity of the unborn and the miracle that conception is.
If we accept that life begins at conception, which is indeed a fact,
not just an opinion, then there should be no confusion as to if the
unborn is a life worth saving. There should be no confusion as to if the
unborn is a life that will be killed as a result of abortion.
For those who do not accept this fact, then, it must be confusing.
Where is the line drawn? When the heartbeat forms? When the child can
feel pain? When does the child become a life? When is it wrong to kill
this life? There exists a wide range of opinions as to when abortion
takes a life, and when it is wrong. But opinions are not fact, and they
become pretty arbitrary pretty fast.
