Because so many millions of their generation are missing on account of abortion.
they grew up living with their parents’ stupidity might be a good place to start.
Because they realize how close they came to not being here?
I know a young man who is an only child, but should have two siblings, who were aborted, as they were “inconvenient”. I often wonder, when his Mom reaches the age where she becomes “inconvenient”, if he will tell her that if he had the help of two siblings, perhaps they would be able to support her, but alone, he cannot.
Maybe because they have seen the destruction killing babies have done.
There is a lot more information available to the general public about the harm abortion (as well as contraception) can wreak upon a woman’s body.
I think this generation wants none of that harm.
They also see the grief in their friends who did have abortions and possibly the inability of those friends to bear children later in life. Mighty powerful influence in my opinion.
Millenials are an odd bunch.. pro-homo but increasingly pro-life. Seems like the media has figured out how to edit and spin homos as gentle and inoffensive, but technology shows the nastiness of abortion.. they can’t glamorize genicide of the unborn.
Maybe because they don’t have the disdain for black babies that their liberal parents do.
In America, all our constitutional protections rest on the Founders' premise that all human beings are "endowed by their Creator" with rights to both life and the liberty to "pursue happiness." That is the sole reason those rights are deemed unalienable--because they are derived, not from another human being, not from a government, not even from the mother, but from God.
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them." - Thomas Jefferson
That understanding underlies every other consideration embodied in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. It is the very basis of our rights to life, liberty, and laws to protect them.
Since the 1970's, technological advances have enabled us to observe God's tiniest creations in the womb. We no longer have an excuse for imagining that these are blobs of tissue labeled "fetuses." They are living babies who will have life and liberty if we do not "destroy" them.
At the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC on February 3, 1994, Mother Teresa stated: “And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?"
Indeed, if we cannot protect the life and liberty of these smallest versions of ourselves, even with their so-called "imperfections," then Mother Teresa's words take on significant meaning.
Probably because they’re thanking God that they were lucky enough to dodge the abortion bullet that has claimed the lives of 40~50 million souls over the last 40+ years.
What a silly poll. Who believes that abortion should be illegal in all cases? Who believes in banning an abortion if a woman’s life is at risk or if the fetus has died?
I think it’s because back in the 70’s to the 2000’s, feminist doctrine was that a woman couldn’t be “free” if she couldn’t control her own body 100% of the time. (This of course left out the small detail that when there’s a *baby* growing inside your body, it is in fact a separate person.) So the two were inseparable: abortion on demand = women’s rights. But I think young women these days have grown up with a lot less discrimination against them (which is a good thing) and as a result can take a second look at abortion rights and say, “Hey, wait a minute, how does my freedom as an individual equal abortion on demand?” I think the real freedom and equality that young women now enjoy has finally freed them to leave the feminist plantation, just like blacks *could* leave the Democrat plantation if they’d just open their eyes.
We’re winning the hearts and minds of the biggest generation in America when it comes to gun rights and the right to life. Now we just need to channel that toward government fiscal responsibility and tax reductions and you’ll have the most conservative generation in a century.
With modern birth control, people really have little excuse.
Easy answer is that these young people have been born to mothers who were pro-life - or they wouldn’t be here. I doubt the baby-killers thought this out in advance. Neither had I. But obviously, these young people were allowed to be born. Which does automatically put them in the majority.
From the many young folks I’ve encountered while working with them, it’s one of the ways that they don’t want to be like their parents. When I attended a university nearly 30 years ago, abortion was against the religion of most of the Gen-X-ers and Baby Boomers in that community. But many of them collected venereal diseases and did it anyway, and they did so more than people of other communities in their age range.
Many of the Gen-X-ers and Baby Boomers who had abortions aborted some babies and kept others. They treated it as a career/economic decision and sometimes a decision based on their feelings for their husbands.
I’d like to think because they are smarter but I agree that the core of it is related to ultrasound which makes a big difference and as next generation Ultrasound tech becomes even more common it will be even harder to escape the reality that what is being aborted is not just a clump of cells but a living baby. Also it wasn’t till after Roe V Wade that the Pro Life Movement got its act together which has made a big difference. It shows how important it is to mobilize a clear response and clear message against the left. You can’t win if you don’t provide a compelling argument and nothing is more compelling than the idea that Mother’s shouldn’t be killing their babies. Its intuitive.
Many of them, especially the onlies, must wonder how many siblings they would have had, if not for the selfishness of their mothers.
