I'm cool with abortion being legal up to 14 weeks or so for any reason whatsoever. But again, I'm only speaking for myself, not for the pro-life community at large. I'm not even involved in the pro-llife movement outside of my personal position so I have no idea what the rumblings are there.

However, I do think that like everyone else, it's the vocal minority that gets the most play. I don't know anyone who believes life begins at conception or that all abortion should be completely illegal under every circumstances and I live in a pretty conservative community.

Also, I've been pregnant three times and it's never taken until 17-18 weeks to feel the baby. Maybe from the outside I guess but I know I felt mine move much, much sooner.

So quickening is relative? For some babies life begins earlier and for others it begins at 17 weeks?

Not everyone who is prolife believes life begins at conception. I certainly don't.

I've never heard a pro-life person with that position. When does it begin?

This is an estimate, but I would say 3/5 of the pro lifers I know believe it starTs at conception, x1/5 at quickening and 1/5 at viability.

No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm pretty sure the medical community has agreed on when a mother could feel her baby moving. But I'm not suggesting women have to prove or say that they haven't felt movement to get an abortion. I'm not speaking to legalities at all as much as what I personally believe.
