You would guess correctly; however, that has no real bearing on my views on the abortion issue. It hasn't changed my views on contraception either. So, maybe I'm not a good Catholic in that regard.



A fertilized egg does indeed equal conception or it wouldn't be fertilized, and it grows before implantation into the uterus.

con·cep·tion –noun
1. the act of conceiving; the state of being conceived.
2. fertilization; inception of pregnancy.

Yes, I do consider it a miscarriage when the fertilized egg (or zygote since you want to get medical) cannot implant by natural causes, and I'm sure it happens countless times to women around the world on a daily basis with them never having known they conceived.

Are you in the medical field Vegmom?
so you not only get to decide what is morally correct for all women, but you are so righteous that you can determine when your church is wrong and you can ignore them? interesting....

so if you practice conception in your own life (as you post indicates) by your own definition you may had countless "abortions" as the result of your taking contraceptives.
na, thats not hypocritical in the least
