Q&A: The argument that life only begins "in the womb" (to justify destroying IVF embryos) fails — it's a location argument. If location determines life, a baby outside the womb would be less alive, which is absurd.

Some Christians argue Psalm 139 means life begins only in the womb, justifying destruction of IVF embryos. Mike: this is the location argument inverted — pro-choice people say life begins outside the womb. If location determines personhood, a delivered baby would lose value. Location doesn't determine humanity.
