Sources I'm reading are unclear. Once a sperm enters the egg and begins fertilising it is the point of conception scientifically I think.

I guess it would be hypocritical given my stance here to promote use of the pill. I don't tell anyone else what to do though. I only make my opinion known here because we're talking about it.
Marriage is a representation of a natural commitment. I care nothing for the institution per se. Apart from a good thing that has been formalised. I have no problem at all with commitment outside of marriage.

But I don't see any problem with two persons being in a long-term relationship having sex and using the pill as contraception in order not to get pregnant.Me neither
