As the fifth child of a mother who wanted only two children, and the child of a father who was 15th in his poor family and the grandchild of a man who was 18th in his poor family, I gotta say, I’m pretty pro-life, even without considering the theological implications...

Here is an interesting aspect of the pro-life movement in the U.S., and proof that Americans with pro-life beliefs are not monolithic, but cut across every catagory of its citizenry. Indeed, one can call the pro-life segment of the nation a model of diversity- but don’t expect the politically correct press to point it out.

Planned Parenthood has hired clergy to promote abortion from a theological standpoint.
Say what??? I'd be interested in hearing what these members of the clergy have to say. (And in particular the denomination they hail from.)

I have always wondered how this issue can break down on political and religious lines so cleanly. To state that a fetus is not a life with so little reflection is to me perplexing regardless of politics or belief in God. I guess I do understand it somewhat along the lines that if you don’t believe in any greater authority then the only authority that matters is your self interest. But come on, casually dismissing a fetus at any stage as not living is absurd. I guess like with all sinistro thinking the big picture gets ignored.

I’m not a thesist and I am pro life.
It certainly has to do with more than religion, but far to many other non thesists have thrown away the baby with the bath, so to speak.
