They are all groups that work with people who have been involved with abortion, helping to come to terms with what they have done. One of the great lies surrounding abortion is that there are no emotional, physical, mental or spiritual consequences. Talk to almost anyone involved in an abortion and they will tell you that is not true.

I am aware that such groups exist, but many people who hear Keyes speak probably won't be. I think part of the pro-life message needs to be that people who are pursuaded to do bad things are not necessarily bad people; sinners are welcome back to the fold iff they repent.

IMHO, this is a much more important message than the fact that abortion is wrong. Many people, even those who are pro-choice, already know that in their gut. But they think they have to believe that it's okay to believe that they or their loved ones are okay. Were it not for that 'need', I suspect abortion would be much more widely and openly despised.
