Abortion is not health care. A woman has a right to her body, but that is not her body. What about the baby?
Abortion is clearly wrong.
I think we have deluded ourselves into believing that people don't know that abortion is killing. So any pretense that abortion is not killing is a signal of our ambivalence, a signal that we cannot say yes, it kills a fetus.
Does the unborn human fetus have at any point the right to live?
On right-to-life, see the Republicans flee from Todd Akin, who committed a gaffe while restating his support for what has been a plank of the Republican platform since 1980.
The advocates of abortion on demand falsely assume two things: that women must suffer if the lives of unborn children are legally protected; and that women can only attain equality by having the legal option of destroying their innocent offspring in the womb.
A potential person is not a person, any more than an acorn is an oak tree. I don't think women should have to give birth just because a sperm met an egg.
Pro-lifers believe there are two victims in an abortion: the unborn child and the woman who felt that that was her best option.
There's a lot of Democrats, myself included, who have supported right-to-life.
So the time line of when we consider a fetus 'human' is arbitrary after conception.
Scientifically, there's no debate over whether the fetus is alive and human.
I should have known better. Pro-life arguments are now based on scientific evidence and the pro-choice arguments are not. That is a cultural, historical fact.
Like the pro-slavery forces who invaded Kansas, the pro-abortion forces in Washington and elsewhere want us to believe that abortion is not murder; that being born is worse than death; that the unborn baby is property, not a person.
Mr. Trump is totally and entirely pro-life.
Abortion is the taking of a life.
There comes a time when a human being has to either face evil or admit to allowing it. Abortion is legal in the United States, but it should not be celebrated or used as a political tool. Viable babies are human beings.
Those opposed to abortion cannot simply invoke God's will-they have to explain why abortion violates some principle that is accessible to people of all faiths.
Abortion on demand has, in my judgment, contributed significantly to an environment in our country in which life has become very cheap.
I do not believe abortion should be legal.
I think the next president ought to invoke the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution now that we clearly know that that baby inside the mother's womb is a person at the moment of conception.
I'm very close to the pro-life movement.
The rights of children as individuals begin while yet they remain the foetus...Whoever has read the 'Weekly' knows I hold abortion (except to save the life of the mother) to be just as much murder as the killing of a person after birth is murder.
In the eyes of the Catholic Church, abortion is a tragedy. Our principle objective must be to try and win greater sympathy for that perspective and for the value of human life from its beginnings.
I'm pro-life. I believe in life at conception.
I think the real place where most evangelicals have trouble with the Democratic Party is on the issue of abortion.
