The idea that life begins at conception is religious not scientific.

I'm going to say it's a mommy thing. I love babies and children and don't consider it a religious thing to know that that child wouldn't become any bigger if it weren't already living at the beginning. I become attached to that baby from the beginning...forming a bond before it's born.

Other mothers don't like the child and wish it to be gone... no religion there!

It's not always a religious belief that has people deciding.
