I think this is very important. If it actually does begin at conception what right do we have to put a value on the life of the fetus? I'm against all killing unless in self defense. I don't care how uncomfortable or painful it is to have labor, if a woman can physically have labor and give birth she should. What happens to the baby after giving birth is up to the mother but I believe life is priceless and valueable. The next president could be killed, Jesus himself could be killed because of abortion. So anyone with any religious beliefs or spirtual beliefs should consider the possible consequences of every action or policy. Abortion is a slippery slope just like the death penalty.
