Life begins when God says it does.

Contacted by the woman’s representatives and touched by her plight, Lejeune testified there is indisputable scientific evidence that human life begins at conception. “I asked the judge to make the decision of Solomon and give the embryos to the parent who wanted them to live,” he recalled. Lejeune’s point was that an embryo has a human nature from the very beginning and should not be treated merely as “matter.” Convinced by Lejeune’s testimony, the judge ruled in the woman’s favor. But the state’s highest court later ruled that the embryos were not human beings. That decision was in turn upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court ...

I live in East Tennessee, not far from the courtroom where this hearing took place. Having studied this case and the testimonies (I used Le Jeune's testimony in a book), I'm now convinced that had this wonderful geneticist centered and focused his argument upon the difference between an organ (or subunit thereof) and an organism, this defense of embryo-aged human beings would have been a world changing one, stopping the degredation into the pit of dehumanizing humans at their earliest age.

“All scientists know when life begins,” Lejeune stated. “If the scientic establishment had told the truth, then the Supreme Court would not have said in Roe v. Wade that science does not know when life begins.” This wonderful man is mistaken in this ... the subpreme court knew what they wanted to rule and where they wanted the society to go before even hearing the testimonies in Roe, and they knew they were fomenting a gross lie but it fit the direction they wanted America to move.

Wonderful read, thank you. It's unfortunate that, despite Dr. Lejeune's impeccable credentials, most pro-aborts will dismiss everything he has to say because he's a Catholic.
