Moral and Logical Arguments Against Abortion

Wednesday, October 5, 2005 - By ALL

Responding to pro-abortion arguments:

Life beginning at conception is a religious view.
It (i.e. the preborn baby) is only "potential" life.
It's only "potential life" until birth.
The fetus is not a human being!
The fetus becomes a child (only) at birth.
Every baby should be a wanted baby.
Abortion should be restricted only after viability.
Who should decide, you or the state?
What about my reproductive choices/rights?
Women should have freedom of choice (abortion).
It's my body to do with as I want.
What's to stop the state from mandating abortion in the future?
The population explosion threatens us all.
Rape, incest or the life of the mother?
Abortion should be allowed for fetal deformity.
Forcing a woman to complete or terminate a pregnancy.
Pro-lifers want to punish women.
Classifiying aborting women as victims is condescending.
If we restrict abortion, it will be the poor that suffer.
Pro-lifers will force women into back alley abortions.
We're not pro-abortion, we're pro-choice.
Pro-choice is not pro-abortion.
Pro-abortion is forced abortion.
Pro-Lifers don't care about children after they are born.
"Babies" having babies
Contraception/birth control

A Gosnell Lesson

by Judie Brown

May

While we were all horrified by the actions of Kermit Gosnell, we should likewise be horrified by the millions of babies killed since abortion was decriminalized, and by the number of lives lost because of contraception. A baby is a baby from the moment he is created, but most people either choose to ignore that fact or remain uneducated. We must learn from the horrors we have seen and vow to do whatever we can to ensure that life, in all stages, is respected and protected.

by Judie Brown

May

Throughout history, during scandals and difficult times, men have stood up for what is right and for what should happen according to God’s will and the natural law. Today is no different, though we do not see this heroism as often as we should. Yet, in recent days, we have seen wonderful examples of this. Read today’s commentary for some inspirational stories.

Motherhood Has Become a Cultural Anomaly!

by Judie Brown

May

Mother’s Day is Sunday. Traditionally, it is a day to honor and respect all that mothers do and sacrifice for the sake of their children. And while this day is important, special, and necessary, we can’t help but wonder what our country would be like if we celebrated mothers every day. If mothers and babies were held in the highest regard, as they should be, each and every day of the year, think about the lives that could be spared. Think about the heartache that would not come about because a mother chose to abort her child. That would truly be a celebration.

Plan B Contributes to Twisted Diversity

by Judie Brown

May

When a society teaches its children to value things above people and to value personal pleasure above all else, what is the result? A society of people who no longer care about their own health, well-being, or future, or about the well-being of others. This misguided notion of what is important leads them into a dangerous lifestyle, and this is where a seemingly innocuous little pill enters. Yet if you delve into this pill—not only what it does, but what it represents—you will find a horror story to rival some of the best. Except that this is reality.

Are Gosnell's Coldblooded Acts a Logical Result?

by Judie Brown

May

We all know how easy it is to become sensitized to something—whether it be violence on TV, song lyrics on the radio, or something else entirely. But what kind of nation do we live in when we find the majority of people sensitized to the killing of innocent babies? For 40 years now, it has been legal for a mother to have her tiny child killed. For 40 years, too few tears have been shed for these babies. And now we discover a man like Kermit Gosnell, who devalues life so much that he stabs it out of a baby with a pair of scissors. This is what the last 40 years has brought us. What will happen in the next 40?
