This would not be accurate:

• If a dude jacks off and does nothing to interfere, nothing happens.

• If an egg is fertilized and no one intervenes, there is a baby.

Regardless of someone’s political stance, conception is clearly when the most meaningful shift occurs and specifically one that is “black or white.” It’s either fertilized and will eventually be a person, or it’s not.

Fertilization is definitely not the most important part.

Human beings aren't single celled.

You can't be a person without a nervous system either.

My initial comment was ridiculous out of hyperbole to convey a point, but life from conception is equally as ridiculous.
