1. Abortion has always been about sex without consequences:
A. Women’s rights is a smokescreen.
B. Feminists in the 1960’s and ‘70’s wanted to be just like men. Since there was no DNA testing back then, men could walk away from sex (even if they got a woman pregnant) with no consequences, and women wanted to be able to do the same.
C. Abortion allowed women to have sex without having to take the responsibility of being a parent just as men could do.
2. Feminists say that a woman has the right to do whatever she wishes with her own body:
A. It is against the law to do drugs, be a prostitute, sell your body parts on eBay, etc. These are all done voluntarily with the body and yet are still illegal.
B. The baby is not her body. This can be shown by the difference between the DNA of the mother and the child.
C, So, not only is it not true that a woman has the right to do anything she wants with her own body, but the baby in her womb is not even her body.
3. When one asks a pro-choicer what a woman is pregnant with, they will say, a fertilized egg, embryo, fetus, etc:
A.These are all stages of development within mammals. All mammals go through the same stages of development.
B. As soon as you say that a woman is pregnant with a fertilized egg, etc. you are saying that she is pregnant with a mammal.
C. What sort of mammal do we think she is pregnant with? It can’t be a whale or a dolphin. It has to be a human mammal, (As shown by common sense and DNA) and humans are persons by definition. You can’t be a human without being a person.
D. Therefore, as soon as you say that a woman is pregnant with a fertilized egg etc you are saying she’s pregnant with a human person.
4. Abortion has a connection with American slavery, and what we did to the American Indians:
A. All three use/used a dehumanizing philosophy to justify their actions.
B. We first labeled the American Indians savages and then felt justified in doing what we wished to them.
C. The southern states claimed that the black Africans were more akin to animals than they were to humans. So they could be bought and sold, whipped, worked in the fields, and even killed as animals.
D. The pro-choicers see the fetus as something that is only potentially human, and so can be aborted without killing an actual human being.
E. What they all have in common is the dehumanization of the portion of the population that they want to kill or otherwise take advantage of.
5. Those who are pro-choice say that the fetus is not a human being from the beginning, but becomes one at a later point:
A. What they are actually saying is that a human being must develop to a certain point (which they decide) before they will consider him to be a human being and give him the basic protection of life. Who are they to decide whether someone is a human being or not? This is arbitrary and evil.
B. It is the very essence of genocidal thinking. If you declare that some portion of the population is less human than the rest, then you can do what you will to them.
C. From conception the baby has all of the genetic material that makes up a human being.
D. Nothing enters into the fertilized egg after conception to make it any more human than it is at that point. All it does is grow and develop.
E. You are not a human being once you develop to a certain point. You develop the way you do (and you get to that point) because you are a human being.
6. The answer to the question of when life begins is contained in the question:
A. As with everything else life begins at the beginning.
B. It cannot begin three months into the growth process.
C. Just as it would be foolish to say that a nine-mile race begins three miles into it, or even three seconds into it, it is equally as foolish to say that life begins three months into the growth process, or even three seconds into it. As with anything else, life cannot begin at any moment other than the beginning.
D. The beginning is self-evidently conception. No growth happens before that. It all begins to happen at the moment of conception.
7. When do we in America say that human life begins? When the mother wants the baby:
A. Two women-the same amount of months pregnant-one wants the baby, the other does not.
B. The one who wants the baby will tell her husband they are going to have a baby, and will to some degree change her lifestyle in order to care for the baby that is in her womb.
C. The woman who does not want the baby will go to the abortion clinic, get an abortion, and no baby dies.
D. This is truly absurd.
8. There has never been a time when a government has declared some portion of its population to be less human than the rest, that given enough time, history has proved them to be right:
A. History is on the side of the pro-lifers.
9. Some women will tell men that they have no right to speak on the abortion issue because they are not women and can’t get pregnant:
A. This is hypocritical because men cannot be vaginally raped, and yet feminists still want men to speak out against it.
B. Even though men cannot get pregnant they are former fetuses, and as a former fetus they can stand up and advocate for all of their brother and sister fetuses who are still in the womb.
