If you consider yourself pro-choice, then you should be able to prove the validity of your position. Otherwise, you are being intellectually dishonest. See if you can answer the following questions.
Try to be honest and complete about your answers. For example, when asked, “Can you prove that the preborn is not a human being?” Don’t merely say, “Everyone knows she’s not.” Instead, actually PROVE–not parrot others, but PROVE that she’s not. Think about whether she has any genes that are not human genes. Think about whether any human has ever given birth or miscarriage to any being other than a human being. Don’t let others think for you. THINK FOR YOURSELF!
These are your questions. BE INTELLECTUALLY HONEST!
- Can you prove that Jane Roe didn’t change to being pro-life many years before she died?
- Can you prove that Jane Roe’s daughter (who Jane Roe went to the Supreme Court to kill to make abortion legal) was born and is pro-life?
- Can you find in the U.S. Constitution any mention of “privacy”? Look most carefully in the Fourteenth Amendment where it’s alleged to be.
- Can you logically connect “privacy” to the act of abortion?
- Can you prove that the preborn is not a human being?
- Can you prove that the preborn is not alive?
- Can you prove that the preborn doesn’t have a heartbeat at 2.5 weeks after fertilization, have brain waves at 6 weeks, feel the pain of herself being ripped apart at 8 weeks, and have fingerprints at 10 weeks if still alive?
- Can you prove that the preborn is not a baby?
- Can you prove that the preborn is not a person?
- Can you prove that the preborn is a part of her mother’s own body and therefore not a separate life?
- Can you prove that the preborn is not a baby especially knowing that Planned Parenthood says she is? (Planned Parenthood is the nation’s and world’s largest abortion provider.)
- Can you prove that new, viable life doesn’t begin when sperm fertilizes egg?
- Can you prove that freedom of choice isn’t freedom to murder a preborn baby?
- Often, a woman can have a baby from a pregnancy which begins after an abortion. Can you prove that this baby won’t have one or more of 140+ handicaps which have been identified as being enabled by abortion?
- Can you prove that God doesn’t say, “You shall not murder”?
- Can you prove that God’s second most important commandment isn’t “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself?” Can you prove there is any neighbor closer to a mother than her preborn baby?
- Can you prove that the newspapers and other media are not prejudiced toward pro-choice? That is, can you prove you’ve been hearing both sides of the controversy?
- Do you know why a student is not allowed to have an aspirin without permission from her parent but can have an abortion without parental knowledge or permission?
- Can you prove that many studies don’t show that the aborters are often severely physically and emotionally hurt for the long term? Can you prove that some aren’t killed by the abortions?
- Can you prove that abortion does not cause a 50% increased risk in contracting breast cancer? (The 50% comes from a pro-abortion researcher.)
- Can you prove that the so-called “safe and legal” abortion is really safe for the mother? Can you prove it is safe for the baby?
- Can you prove that abortion doesn’t often cause sterility?
- Can you prove that abortion doesn’t devastate many fathers?
- Can you prove that the abortion industry doesn’t consistently fight legislative efforts to make their cleanliness standards at least equal to those of veterinary clinics?
- Can you prove that there is at least one abortion clinic within 100 miles of you that has had a general inspection by your state health department within the past 5 years?
- Can you prove that the abortion industry isn’t a multi-billion dollar per year industry?
- Can you prove that sex ed courses do not teach our children how to be promiscuous and to be promiscuous?
- Can you prove that sex ed courses do not cause an increase in sexual intercourse among children?
- Can you prove that birth control doesn’t have a high failure rate?
- Can you prove that the IUD doesn’t work by abortion?
- Can you prove that the Pill, Depo-Provera, and Norplant don’t work by abortion sometimes?
- Can you prove that there aren’t at least one million stable couples in the U.S. available to adopt babies.
- Can you prove that the preborn is less viable than you? That is, can you prove that the preborn baby needs more people helping her with food, clothing, shelter, money, etc. than you do?
- Can you prove that 98% of all abortions aren’t solely for birth control?
- Can you prove that abortion isn’t legal during all nine months of the pregnancy?
- Can you prove that pregnancy because of rape isn’t an extremely rare occurrence?
- Can you prove that you still have good reasons to remain pro-choice?
These questions were designed to make you think. Often, those who call themselves pro-choice strongly and automatically deny what pro-life says. They give pro-life statements no consideration or credibility at all. That is, they don’t think. Well, after trying to answer the above questions for yourself, perhaps you’ve thought about the claims of the people on your side of the issue.
The pro-choice leaders can’t prove the above any better than you can. But they don’t care: They are driven by the money and power of the abortion industry. Are you? Do you have any reason to remain on their side? Do you have any reason at all to remain pro-choice?
Be logical. Become pro-life!
