I didn't accuse you, or the people on "these threads" of anything, except some spurious arguments.
Please answer this question honestely. If you knew an unborn child was going to become the next Hitler or Charles Manson, wouldn't you insist it not be aborted, even knowing that?
I said, all of the "programs" for children that these Christians support and promote, while for the most part, beneficial, they do not at all address the actual situations of most of the desparate women who have abortions. This does no say, nor is it intended to imply any fault in the programs or effort of Christians to help those considering or having had abortions. The fact is, there are more women having abortions than any Christian programs are ever going to be able to reach, many women are not interested in the programs of Christians and are even antagonistic toward them, and many women are in places far removed from any Christian programs. These are just the sad facts.
If you are really opposed to abortion, a calm reasonable approach will work wonders in convincing others.

IF?, we are not dealing with IFs and precognition - we are dealing in scientific/biological fact. Just because we are Christians does not mean we are addle-brained.
"all of the "programs" for children that these Christians support and promote, while for the most part, beneficial, they do not at all address the actual situations of most of the desparate women who have abortions."
Is this something you read in The NY Times, (or from your public high school teacher)? It is obviously not something you know from experience, because it is UNTRUE!
I will answer if you will answer this. Suppose you met a five-year-old child on the street that you know would become the next Hitler or Charles Manson. Wouldn't you insist on him not being shot in the head on sight - even knowing that?
I would insist that the child not be aborted - even if I believed the child would grow up to rape and murder my daughter.
Shalom.
