| Related Pages Ending Abortion Learn How to Share the Pro-life Message Pro-Life Responses to Common "Pro-Choice" Arguments Pro-Life Responses to Common "Pro-Choice" Arguments: Big AreasThese responses aren't designed to present the entire pro-life position to someone. Instead, they are quick ways to neutralize inflammatory slogans and bring the issue back to the main point, the killing of the unborn. The goal is not to debate with individuals and "win" fights about abortion. Instead, grace, wisdom, and tact in dialogue about abortion might help people see that the pro-life position is a reasonable one.
Abortion isn't killing. A fetus isn't alive, it's just tissue. How can something that's growing not be alive? Biology says that the fetus is alive, and abortion makes it dead, isn't that killing?
What is it? A dog? A fish? A carrot? If a being has human parents, isn't it human?
No, he or she is a person with great potential. A "person" is a valuable human being who has rights. An unborn child is alive, human, and a member of our species who is developing into a fully grown human being. Shouldn't we treat them and all human beings equally under the law?
Childbirth terminates a pregnancy, is abortion the same as childbirth?
Aren't we all "pieces of tissue" in different sizes? Are bigger people, more valuable people?
Newborns can't think like us, and people in comas can't feel. Can we kill them? It isn't even in the world yet. What planet is it on then? I would suspect Earth, like the rest of us. Why should we have the right to kill someone just because of where they live?
Should we cherish the helpless, or kill them? Isn't a toddler dependent on his/her mother too? Should we allow the killing of toddlers as well?
If that's true then pregnant women have two brains, two hearts, 20 fingers and toes, two blood types, two sets of DNA, and a penis half the time! Obviously the unborn are there own little body, they aren't a part of anyone else's body.
Can a Satanist kill a two-year-old in a ritual sacrifice? After all no one knows when life begins and that's what his religion says. If no one knows when life begins then shouldn't we play it safe and not kill a life in question? Back to menu A woman has a right to choose. A right to choose what? Women have a right to choose their college, spouse, and careers. But should anyone have the right to choose to kill a human being for virtually any reason? That is what it means to choose abortion.
What about the child's body and her choice? There are two different and distinct bodies.
Does a woman have a right to abuse her two year old in private? Can a father molest his daughter if it is done in the privacy of their own home?
Aren't parents supposed to take care of and support their children? How does a child living inside their parent change that?
Your organs weren't made for me. For whom is the uterus designed?
Trust you with what choice? Is it the choice to attend college, get married, or kill a child? Not all choices are equal or good.
Isn't a mother who aborts her child forcing her morality on her child?
Why are you personally opposed to abortion? Would you be personally opposed to slavery but not take away the choice to own a slave?
If a woman privately hires a doctor to kill her born child, should we interfere?
Many serial killers say God told them to kill their victims, does that make it okay?
What about the rights of 650,000 females that are aborted each year? When men abandon a crisis pregnancy they are considered scum and jerks. Are you saying women need to strive to be jerks or scum?
Is it unfair to deny people the chance to hurt or kill others?
Would a drug addict who doesn't want to give up her son to the state have "no other choice" but to kill him? I thought "pro-choice" meant women do have other choices. Back to menu
Every child a wanted child So should we kill all the unwanted ones then?
We could just euthanize those children in their sleep, is that a good solution to poverty? We wouldn't tolerate killing impoverished born children, so why do we tolerate killing impoverished unborn children?
Should we kill the homeless, mentally handicapped, or senile? They're just contributing to overpopulation, right?
So was slavery. What is legal isn't always right.
If you don't like child molestation, don't molest one. (Does that sound tolerant or absurd to you?)
What about laws that forbid murder, theft, and rape? Isn't that legislating morality?
Religious people oppose the killing of toddlers, should we say they should stop because of "Separation of Church and State?"
Rape is illegal but there are still many rapes, should we do away with that law?
Safer for whom? The mother, or the child being aborted? If a woman's child is drowning in a lake, shouldn't she reasonably risk some of her safety if the only other alternative is the child's death?
No, the death of the mother would be just as tragic as the death of the child. Can't we have a world where neither dies? Should we legalize terrorism to make it safer for the terrorist? Back to menu Pro lifers show disgusting photos of dead babies! They are disgusting photos because abortion is disgusting.
1.3 million couples are waiting to adopt newborns. If a woman is going to kill her toddlers, do I have to adopt them to stop her from killing them?
How do you know I'm a man? Some women don't have uteruses, are they second-class citizens? Do I have to be a parent or an abused child to oppose child abuse? The entire Supreme Court that decided the Roe vs. Wade decision were men. Should we ignore that court decision legalizing abortion?
Why do you think pro-lifers do those things? It's terrible when people harm those that they consider "unwanted." That's why I oppose abortion. Back to menu What about a woman whose life is in danger? Do you know of any such case? This situation is extremely rare and usually the child will die regardless. The doctor should do his best to save both. On the other hand, it is very common for the child's life to be in danger during an abortion. What about his or her life?
Am I a child of rape? If I were, would that mean at one point I didn't deserve to live? Rape is the fault of the father, why should the child pay for his crimes? Do we allow the mother to kill the guilty party? No. Then why would we allow her to kill the innocent party?
What amounts of imperfections justify the death of a child? If a mother's born child becomes deformed, does she have a right to kill it? Back to menu
