Pro-lifers can approach “the other side” in a way that says “I care for you and your child.”

As illustrated by the SAGE/CCFL confrontation, the pro-aborts can only approach in a way that says “I care for me and me alone” which can be loosely translated “I want to be able to have an abortion to hide that I can’t control my hormones and resulting unwise actions”

As far as the health clause of most abortion laws, I would say save the life that can be saved. If both Mom and Baby are going to die, the life that can be saved should be saved.

If the mother has a health problem that does not threaten her life or the life of the baby, abortion would not be acceptable.

If Mom has a fast spreading uterine cancer early on in the pregnancy, she needs to be treated for it and the baby will likely not survive. There are other cases late in pregnancy where the baby might survive and the mother not.

A consistent pro-lifer says save the life that can be saved (see Randy Alcorn’s Why Pro-Life?, Multnomah Pub., 2004, pp. 76-77).

Studies show that two fertile, consenting adults will have only a 3% chance at best of conception. Factors in rape or incest further decrease these chances (Alcorn, p. 78). What an amazing function God has placed in the human body!

Quite possibly the most difficult sign to read ever. The first thing I read was “These people raped incest not.”

Ausblog, You say, “I’d like to see effective birth control made available to all who can’t afford it.” Good point. I believe there is a shot that you can get that makes you sterile for 3 or 6 months. It’s free to anyone who wants it in Dallas, and probably elsewhere. I just googled “free birth control” and the first link says anyone in Washington state can get it free as well. Someone needs to get the word out.

3,500 per day / 1.3 million per year in America alone.

50% of that 1.3 million claimed failed birth control was to blame.

A further 48% had failed to use any birth control at all.

And 2% had medical reasons.

That means a stagering 98% may have been avoided had an effective birth control been used.

I am a 98% pro-lifer, 2% Pro-choicer, who has no religious convictions at all . I didn’t need the fear of god or anything else to come to my decision, just a good sense of what is right and wrong.
You see we were all once a fetus. Is it beyond the realm of possibilities that when your mother first learned she was carrying you, she may have considered her options? What if she had decided to terminate? Would that have been OK?
You would not exist, if you have children they would not exist, and your (husband or wife) would be married to someone else. You would have been deprived of all your experiences and memories. In this day and age with terminations being so readily available and so many being carried out, if you make it to full term you can consider yourself lucky.
Lucky you had a mother that made the choice of life for you.

Don’t you think they all deserve the same basic human right, LIFE?

At the point of conception is when life began for you. This was the start of your existence. Your own personal big bang. Three weeks after conception heart started to beat. First brain waves recorded at six weeks after conception. Seen sucking thumb at seven weeks after conception.

Though it pains me to say it , there may always be a need for the 2% medical reasons and such, but that’s all.

So how do we get the other 98% to be responsible……………….

How do we get them to be honest with themselves, about when life begins.

Everyone knows life begins at conception, egg+sperm = human being

Sadly many prefer an occasional abortion, over using birth control, they have all kinds of reasons, each of them selfish.

Then there’s the christian impossition,(all a bit talibanish), and their men in high places.(church and state should never entwine) their stance against b/c has only added to the numbers.

Sanity must provale, abortions should remain available and safe to the 2% and the rest need to have a good look at themselves and get their act together.

I’d like to see effective birth control made available to all who can’t afford it.

People have to stop using abortion as birth control………….
