It’s a question of life or death—when does a human life begin?
Our culture likes to pretend we don’t really know ... and so abortion is okay. It’s just a clump of cells . . . a part of the woman’s body. But using vague language like that doesn’t change what abortion actually is—murder. You see, we can know when a life begins! At fertilization, when the father’s sperm meets the mother’s egg, a new person is formed. This person is genetically unique—there’s never been another person like him or her . . . and never again! No new genetic information is added after fertilization. Everything that made you was present at that very moment . . . when your life actually began!
