Today we're fact-checking Dr. Phil on abortion. In a recent episode of the Dr. Phil show, Dr. Phil said there was no consensus on when life begins, after which he proceeded to ask the viewers to fact-check him on that statement. We are here to do just that. Is there a consensus on when life begins?

The issue of abortion has become a heated debate after the overturning of Roe v Wade decision, which is giving us, pro-lifers a golden opportunity to present our position to the largely pro-choice mainstream through debates such as these.
