Looking at the frustrating search results for the question 'when does human life begin' inspired me to attempt a non-biased answer if anyone's interested:
YouTube
Summary of the video:
Liberal media/pro-choice biased people tend to deny the scientific consensus of when life begins.
Conservative media/pro-life biased people tend to cite the science correctly to a point but the implications and conclusions drawn go beyond the science.
Scientific consensus from embryologists: Biological life begins at fertilization. There is a scientific consensus that at the point of fertilization there is an individual biological human life.
Embryologists will call a zygote a human being but not necessarily a human person. The controversy is not when life begins, it is when personhood begins.
