In this episode Trent talks about five pro-life arguments you should avoid when trying to make the strongest defense of unborn children.
can someone make a list from the video? thanks
5:37
1.What about adoption?
7:11
2.Abortion hurts women.
8:15
3.Fetuses feel pain
9:18
4. Fetuses have brain waves.
10:30
5. What if you were aborted?
My favorite pro-life argument is to fully embrace Sanger and point out the purpose of Planned Parenthood is to eliminate inferior races, and invite the pro-abortion person to join the Klan. Because they need members who are fully committed to the cause.
This guy Trent sounds very condescending - I’ll pass.
Is murdering a woman who’s pregnant worse than murdering one who’s not? Why?
Question I like to ask “pro-choice” folks.
Summary:
Arguments that do not work:
1. Choose adoption.
(If adoption not possible or desired, abortion is still wrong.)
2. Abortion hurts women.
3. Fetus feels pain (99% of abortions are before 20 weeks, that’s point they can feel pain.)
4. Unborn child has brainwaves. (No, abortion wrong because child is member of human community.)
5. What if you were aborted?
Instead of these ideas, some of which are logical fallacies (?), focus on life. If it’s wrong to kill a 2-year old, it’s wrong to kill an unborn child.
I use one argument: When does life begin. The EXACT moment.
There can be no answer, thus life begins when life begins: when the zygote is created. Thus when the life is created, it is no longer one human (the woman) but two (the woman + the baby).
I am not kidding when I say this SCIENTIFIC argument has never been defeated. The lefties just resort to ad hominem since that is all that is left.
>>Instead of these ideas, some of which are logical fallacies (?), focus on life. If it’s wrong to kill a 2-year old, it’s wrong to kill an unborn child.<<
They are all results-oriented which is not the issue at all. If all life is sacrosanct then it cannot be taken whether it is cogent or if its existence is a problem for others. If nor, then the person is a psychopath.
She even had a Ex-KKK leader named LOTHROP STODDARD on her board of directors....Was he there to help black women plan families?????
Most of the pro-choice folks I can engage in debate have already crossed the Rubicon ... they will ultimately admit that abortion ends a human life but they will insist there are degrees of humaness or some other ludicrous excuse for their god-like powers of discernment. They know and will admit that abprtion kills a human life, terminates a human being, or terminates a real human, they just nassuyme god-like power to do so ‘for the woman’s benefit!’

The only argument against THAT is to say that if any human’s life can be terminated for no reason then the person making the statement is undeserving of life for the same reason.
Those who promote murder ignore that the baby has DNA to prove they’re alive.
Excellent thank you
Thank you!
And it is unique DNA, not the mother's DNA. Abortion is not about the mother's body, it is about SOMEONE ELSE'S body.
Lot of people against abortion lined up to get aborted tainted shots.
For a while, my grandmother had three hearts, six arms, one uterus and two penises.
It was her body! Her body, with twin boys aboard.
While this is not an argument for why abortion is wrong (which because it is the taking of innocent human life), it is a valid response to the argument that abortion is justified because unwanted children will suffer.
"2. Abortion hurts women."
This adds additional weight to why abortion is wrong, for it does have a negative psychological effect upon women, and usual fosters aversion of the Bible and the adoption of liberal views.
"3.Fetuses feel pain"
Rather, murderers will feel pain.
"4. Fetuses have brain waves."
Which supports that this is a living organism, and if it is not a human person, than what is it? When did it become a human person.
"5. What if you were aborted?"
