The morning after pill will prevent a fertilized egg from implanting into the uterine wall. It won't end a pregnancy. A pregnancy is considered a pregnancy on implantation, not upon fertilization, so I ask you, do you believe life happens before pregnancy?

mom2pnuts, I didn't contradict myself. Yes, it prevents pregnancy, it doesn't END pregnancy, like abortion

there are people who believe that the morning after pill is an abortion. I'm not one of them, and I think it's a bit of a stretch, just to limit women's rights, yet again

about 50% of fertilised eggs are spontaneously shed from the uterus before or around implantation.
if christians really believed human life begins at fusion protestants would hold funeral services for late periods (and roman catholics would baptise the menstrual flow of young women who are sexually active).
have you ever seen a business offering casket services for sanpro?
nobody really believes that human life begins from the moment of fusion. or at least anybody that does believe that must necessarily believe in flushing babies down the lav.

I think you just contradicted yourself. You said "The morning after pill will prevent a fetilized egg from implanting into the uterine wall. It won't end a pregnancy." Then you said A pregnancy is considered a pregnancy upon implantation." So, if the morning after pill, by your definition, prevents implantation and (again by your definition) a pregancy occurs on implantation, then the morning after pill prevents pregnancy. Many consider life to begin at conception, when the sperm fertilizes the egg. To me, life begins when your heart tells you it's so.

I believe life starts at fertilization but I don't have a problem with the morning after pill.

I do, I think once it becomes fertile, it's a alive, and starts it's implantation on the uterine wall. It cannot do that if it is not fertile and moving. So, yes life happens once it is fertile.

I think that is it better to avoid acting in certain areas of life until one can know more about it. Sadly, though, life isn't like that and people must make choices everyday about things that they don't really understand fully. When it comes to critical issues though, think, feel, watch, and make the best decision you can with all the information presented to you.
Personally, I wouldn't use the day after pill. I would rather let the future unfold itself than act in something that I can not know about fully.

The morning after pill is touted as preventing pregnancy, not terminating it. The abortion bill is the one that purges the uterus.

what??? Is this a real question??? The sperm and the egg have to meet and fertilize in order for life to begin if that were the case we wouldn't need men at all!

I do believe that the morning after pill is a form of abortion just like this right here:

No it does not. without the egg being fertilized there would be no baby, so I don't see how if could be a life before.

Well, that's close to saying everytime a guy shoots off knuckle children he is having thousands of abortions. I do not believe that is life.
