I don ' t disagree with the conclusion on that last part wear contraception . Personally , I think using contraception is always preferable having an abortion . Contraception vs abortion Contraception is not , usually , a form of surgery Conceptraception has far less health risks There ' s less stigma around the use of contraception Contraception costs everyone less . and contraception it ' s less time consumingHowever , I don ' t think because contraception failed , you didn ' t have access to contraception , you didn ' t have education about contraception use or you didn ' t have the choice to use contraceptives means you should be forced to have a child . I mean , forcing someone to give birth because of morals they don ' t identify with is fucked up . It ' s fucked up on all kinds of levels for the mother and child . Oh , and the first part of your questionAsk yourself why exactly you consider human life to begin at birth and not at conception . Sure , why do I think human life begins after birth ? Because I think reducing what qualifies as human to simple biology , a mass of correctly aligned cells , is disingenuous and diminishes the human experience . Qualifying something as human before birth is also a difficult position to defend because it relies solely on subjectivity and moral perspective . There is no scientific answer to when we are human and not a collection of human cells because science is incapable of answering moral questions in a satisfactory manner . Arguments for a fetus being human after conception and at any point during the pregnancy are all similar and they ' re weak . So , yet again , why do I think human life begins after birth ? Because being human requires participation , it requires experience , time to build your identity and develop your mind . Being human requires a personality based on the experiences and circumstances surrounding you . To reduce what makes us human to layman ' s biology is to deny the fullness and necessity of human experience . Without human experience , interaction and development we are just a collection of cells . Saying a fetus is human is ignoring , what I consider , a key component of humanity .
