Absolutely relavent if one believes that beginging of consciousness is the moment a soul begins. The concept of "quickening" is historically relevant in the in Old English law as to whether or not murder has been committed or not.

Once again, when does consciousness begin?

Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.

There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.
