Even in Christianity there was a lot of different ideas about when the "soul" arrived. A lot of them held that it was at the quickening, when the mother could feel the baby move that the soul arrived. That was eventually put aside in favor of life = soul.

Interesting about the “quickening”.

“life = soul”

Our pastor was saying how the question of “when does life begin?” is not even a question. Biology tells us it is at conception.
