It is disturbingly astonishing to sit in the bleachers while some dispute the right to choose or obliterate life. Some didactic individuals base their pathetic arguments on the premise that the embryo is part of its mother’s body. They are totally on sinking sand. A mother does not even have the right to take her own life. God tells us not to commit murder; our own lives are not excluded. Some call abortion a humane act if an infant is predicted to be born with a defect or if it will bring embarrassment or inconvenience to families and others. Instead of God’s view, some fashion their expedient ideas or perform heinous acts to accommodate their own preferences. One cannot rationalize his/her way to abortion with any moral decorum. You cannot and dare not attempt to compromise truth with pragmatism! Actually, our lives are formed in our ancestors.

Hebrews 7:9-109. And, so to say, through Abraham even Levi, who receiveth tithes, hath paid tithes; 10. for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him. (ASV)

Life ingredients (potential life) begin prior to birth! When a father’s and mother’s seed mix successfully, an embryo (dynamic life) comes into being. An embryo is alive. Kinetic life does not exist before that time. Thus, contraception only delays or postpones life; whereas, abortion destroys life itself. That is murder. At conception, a life comes into being, replete with an amalgamation of all of one’s ancestors. Life begins at conception.
