    How is that any different? It’s still their religion that says when life begins. Other abrahamic religions do not believe that life starts at conception.

      While the argument for life beginning at conception can be rooted in religious texts, it can also be based on the desire for simplicity of argument.

      I.e. not wanting to pick a random day during the term of the pregnancy to serve as a cutoff point, because the development of a fetus doesn’t have a convenient place where you can say "5 minutes ago, this thing wasn’t alive. Now it is. "
