Haha...that's kinda funny when you consider that I said BIBLICALLY SPEAKING God says he formed us IN THE WOMB....I was not refering to a scientist. BTW what was the point I missed?

While biology can tell us when something is living "materially", the life itself, the intangible and eternal soul of a man begins in the hands of God (an anthropomorphism of course) and is embodied in the natural when sperm and egg meet. The meeting of sperm and egg do not create the intangible and eternal soul of a man...that originates with God on the spiritual plane. Life technically begins and originates in the spiritual. Carnal minds always focus on the natural, science, biology, evolution, etc. But creation, life, and existence begins in God.
Is it really me or YOU that missed the point? You seem to have just confirmed the very words I said..GOD formed us in the WOMB. God is the author of our existence.

Quote:
So I propose that life doesn't begin at conception...unless that "conception" is the "conceptualization" in the eternal mind of God before biological conception and meets the biological conception at the point when sperm and egg meet.
We are talking about physical life...living organisms...BTW are you a Mormon?

Quote:
Man is more than a physical biological thing. Man is body, soul, and spirit.

And please note, God's formation of man in the womb isn't instantaneous...it's a nine month process.
Nobody said man was only a physical biological thing...I fear you read WAY too much into what was posted
