The narrative that life begins at conception is a powerful point of view which is driving the abortion debate throughout the country. If there is a viable life, then surely it would be against God’s will to end the life there, inside the body of a person with female organs.

But if you peek behind the terminology, you can start to see how easily this narrative dehumanizes the woman, long blamed for original sin in the Christian narrative, and places the responsibility of pregnancy solely upon her shoulders.
