Did you mean to write “when does life begin?”

Yes, I’ve got some typos that no matter how many times I review, I don’t see until after posted. I sure wish we had edit ability on FR.
So, yes, when does life begin and when do we call it murder and wrong to kill it?

I believe at conception.

Give an individual sperm time, nutrition, protection. . . no human being.

But give a fertilized ovum time, nutrition protection. . . complete human being.

It’s obvious to me.

No, I don’t believe we should use the present form of IVF. I sympathize with barren couples. If you could do IVF without discarding scores of people in the embryonic phase I think that is fine. But the modern way, no.

Also, I’ve known two barren couples who were supposed to never be able to have kids. In each of these cases after ten years or so they began to conceived naturally. It is not unusual.

Finally, if you cannot have children, perhaps you should adopt. There is a waiting list for healthy babies in this country, and a waiting list for Down’s babies. But older foster-to-adopt kids need parents. Perhaps that is your calling.
