George Weigel writing for NewsWeek points out what we’ve known as a scientific fact for decades:  that human life begins at conception and any other suggested point for its beginning is arbitrary:  http://www.newsweek.com/id/155564/output/print.  This is not a matter of religious faith, but cold hard science.

In my opinion, anyone running for President who thinks that such a fact is “above his pay grade” ought not be seeking the highest political pay grade in the world.
