Life is not a choice, it is a right

If all lives matter, then that must include life in the womb. Your life began when you were conceived.

The DNA that makes you who you are, was formed at conception. Just 18 days later you had a heart beat. During the third week of your life, your spine and nervous system formed.

That is why it is troubling to understand how the murder of a pregnant woman is considered a double-homicide, yet it is not murder to have the child aborted. Isn't quite ironic that those who support abortion were never aborted themselves. Furthermore, that those same people who would agree a bundle of cells on Mars would mean life, but not the fetus in a mothers womb.

Life is not a choice, life is a right.
