This is assuming you are talking to a rational person, which is not a great assumption.

Even worse it assumes anyone wants to. No one in DC wants to “solve the problem of abortion” anymore than anyone in DC wants to “solve the problem of immigration”. The Federal Government is destroying itself.

The hardcore believers in abortion are not rational, but MANY who are not hardcore but lean toward supporting abortion will listen to rational arguments where they would not listen to emotional appeals (however valid) by those who oppose abortion.

Genuine debate requires rules. Strong emotions in debate usually encourage the violation of such rules.

Yes, very few, there are some, but very few are willing to engage in a rational discussion. Few have the courage to do so - instead they resort to name calling.
