"The morning after pill has two probable effects - either it prevents conception (fertilization of a ripe egg), or it prevents implantation of a fertilized egg. I doubt very much that "most Christians" think either one is murder.
Most Christians believe life begins at conception. Thus preventing implantation of a fertilized egg would be murder.
There is also concern about the health effects on the child, if it manages to implant anyway of exposure to such a high dose of hormones.

Most Christians believe life begins at conception. Um, my guess is that the next step is circular logic, as in "and if you don't believe this, you are NOT a Christian"?

Most Christians believe life begins at conception.Does this mean you believe the unfertilized egg is not alive?
Does this also mean you believe that the free swimming sperm is not alive?
Would the sterilization of either an unfertile egg or a free swimming sperm be murder?
