People who are pro-choice believe that they are just defending the right of the mother to decide whether her unborn child lives or dies; thus, pro-choice. At the same time, they deny that they have any responsibility for the death of the unborn child if the mother decides to abort. This is nonsense. By supporting their right to choose, you are, in effect, implying that you believe either choice, life or death, is equally good and moral, and to the extent that you influence them to agree with you, you share in whatever decision they make. The only way you can avoid a shared responsibility in a decision to abort is to take a stand against abortion, i.e., to be pro-life.

It’s NOT OK with GOD who is the ONLY obe that matters.
If the baby consents then its okay by me.
No. Not really. I don’t feel obligated to protest. But I do feel obligated to explain my personal position when it’s discussed.
The conversation usually ends when I say the I must disagree, agreeably with your “choice” position...(to kill your baby.)
Yes, it is interesting. That’s the only way they can get well-meaning individuals to agree with them, because they do not have a defensible position.
Amen to that!
Amen! Absolutely.
I had a bumper sticker on my car a number of years back that said:
PRO-WOMAN, PRO-CHILD, PRO-LIFE
I got mixed responses from other drivers. Some would honk and give a thumbs up and others, like one woman I spoke to at the post office, who actually commented on it, disapproved - not because it said Pro-life but because it said Pro-Woman. She thought it was too "feminist". I think we forget sometimes that there IS a woman involved and not just the unborn child and that abortion truly damages her, as well. That is why I supported and volunteered at our local Crisis Pregnancy Center because it gave tangible as well as emotional and spiritual support to the woman as well as her baby. She was empowered by learning about her baby, the reality of abortion and its risks and heartaches, the positive choices she DID have that she could live with afterward and which involved the entire family support system that she needed to see her pregnancy through instead of what was sold as a convenient way to be "rid" of it.
As pro-lifers we MUST be more that speakers of that truth but DOERS, too. Many times the pro-abortion/anti-life forces accuse us of only caring about the unborn baby and not the needs of the mother. Let's prove to them more than we ever have in the past that this is untrue and unfounded.
A great proponent of life is Dr. David Reardon. He said something that struck me as quite profound and a worthy cause we should all strive for and it is that when the truth about abortion is finally known and society fully aware of the great evil and damage abortion causes to ALL areas of life it won't have to be made illegal because it will become UNTHINKABLE. May this truly be our goal with the help of Almighty God!
Yes sir, God sure is clear on the matter. Life begins at conception. Right there in all those Genesis geneologies we all usually skim through. Notice in a Genesis genealogy it says a certain man begat a certain son. It does not say born to or birthed. It says begat, the conception event.
So life according to Genesis starts at conception. That leads us then to thou shalt not murder. And that is abortion, murder.
How long before God judges this nation for offering babies on the altar of Molech?
Enlighten us why did you cry?
Amen, and thank you.
Good point!
Choice - keep your pants on - raising 4 daughters ...
“..why I was crying...”
Beautiful post. Many thanks
That’s REAL “body control”, isn’t it?!
REAL body contol ....
It does help when they are teens and the hormones rage ...
My oldest (26) is married and we now have the most beautiful grand daughter ever.
First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage.
That’s still how it should be.
How about an excerpt from an essay titled "Is the Earth Round or Flat?"
May the peace of Christ find you.
