At your conception.
Not before, not after.
Being a life scientist (PhD level), I think I'm aware of when a human acquires 46 chromosomes. The issue is actually a bit more complex than the word "conception" indicates, but a discussion of that is a bit too complex for me to want to tackle it here.
It's about a lot more than that.
It's about teaching people that they should not be responsible, that they should just engage in whatever behavior their instincts lead them to, without any attempt to act civilized.
It's about driving home the point that no individual human has any worth, and that a human's only value is in the labor they provide to "society." And, by extension, it's about giving the message to every person who embraces abortion that they, too, can be just as easily snuffed out once they no longer provide value to "society."
“Medical science is irrelevant to the question of when a fetus becomes a human being that matter is a legal and philosophical one, not a medical one.”
Hitler would be proud.
