53. The short answer? Life began 4.7 billion years ago, and hasn't stopped.
Edited on Sat Jan-22-11 12:24 AM by Warren DeMontague
Sperms are alive. Eggs are alive.

People may have the power to vote on things that don't affect them personally, but I also think that governmental decision-making should defer to the right of individuals to control their own bodies, as a general guideline.

My personal philosophical opinion is that the ONLY person qualified to make a decision about a pregnancy taking place inside a woman's body is the woman herself. Period. End of story.
