I’m pro-abortion because I believe in mercy and compassion

“Do unto others as they want you to do unto them. It’s called the Platinum Rule. In this moral universe, real people count more than potential people, hypothetical people or corporate people….

I’m pro-abortion because I believe in mercy, grace, compassion, and the power of fresh starts.”

VALERIE TARICO “I am pro-abortion, not just pro-choice: 10 reasons why we must support the procedure and the choice” Salon APR 24, 2015

Where is the “mercy” and “compassion” for the unborn victim who is torn limb from limb in an abortion?

Better to abort “innocent and defenseless” babies than let them be born

“Abortion might be killing a life. Bu if there is a sin, it is the sin that we adults perpetuate on the children of the earth – who truly are innocent and defenseless – by bringing those children into the world when they will not be cared for.”

Actress and pro-choice supporter Margot Kidder

Paul M Clark “The Source of Human Dignity” quoted in Paul T Stallsworth The Right Choice (Nashville, TN: Abingdon Press, 1997)

Which is a worse “sin”?

Killing a baby to prevent her from being unwanted?

Or letting her live?

Doctors call preborn baby “protoplasmic mass”

“What is aborted is a protoplasmic mass not a real, live, grown up individual.”

From doctors Dr. JP McDermott and Dr. WF Char in an effort to pacify nurses at a Hawaiian hospital when they became extremely upset by “dead fetuses and pieces of limbs, fingernails and hair” in the operating room.

Abortion and playing God

Ridiculous pro-abortion quote of the day:

“If it is a terrible thing to play God by terminating physical life, it is also a terrible thing, in another sense, to play God by imposing as a divine absolute a prohibition that may cause immense suffering to both individuals and society.”

Pro-choice activist

Edward Batchelor, Jr. ed., Abortion: the Moral Issues (New York: Pilgrim, 1982) 109

Apparently, dismembering a baby like the one below in an abortion is playing God, but preventing someone from dismembering the child is playing God… Even more?

Gloria Steinem: Abortion is removing a “parasitic growth”

“A woman would have the right to abortion just as she has a right to remove any parasitic growth from her body.”

Gloria Steinem, author and feminist leader, on CNN, September 9, 1981

Quoted in “Abortion: the Hidden Holocaust” Heritage House ’76, Inc. February 2, 2011

Is the picture above of a growth or of a baby?

(see what a seven week old embryo looks like after an abortion here)

Above: from a “growth” at 14 weeks. (see what he or she would look like after an abortion) Thousands of babies are aborted at this age every year in the US

Abortion-rights the “cornerstone of the woman’s movement” says feminist

Rickie Solinger quoted another pro-choice feminist saying the following:

“I consider the right to elective abortion… the cornerstone of the women’s movement… Without that right, we’d have about as many rights as the cow in the pasture that’s taken to the bull once a year.”

Rickie Solinger Beggars and Choosers (New York: Hill and Wang, 2001) 4

Planned Parenthood’s “40 Days of Prayer” mocks “40 Days for Life”

Planned Parenthood did its own takeoff of the pro-life “40 days for life” with “40 days of Prayer Supporting Women Everywhere” that was prayer for abortion. Here is one of the prayers they recommended:

The "sacred" work of one abortion clinic, this baby was aborted at 10 weeks — The “sacred” work of one abortion clinic, this baby was aborted at 10 weeks

“We give thanks for the doctors who provide quality abortion care.”

· We pray for a cloud of gentleness to surround every abortion facility.”

· We pray for all the staff at abortion clinics around the nation. May they be daily confirmed in the sacred care that they offer women.”

Others:

– We give thanks and celebrate that abortion is still safe and legal.”

– We give thanks for abortion escorts who guide women safely through the hostile gauntlets of protesters.”

– We pray for women who have been made afraid of their own power [of choice, i.e. abortion] by their religion. May they learn to reject fear and live bravely.”

Faith Aloud is the group that wrote the prayers. Infamous late term abortionist Dr. Leroy Carhart is a member of the board.

Former Planned Parenthood Pres. “women have abortions because they love children and revere life”

Former Pres. of Planned Parenthood Gloria Feldt on abortion and why women have them:

“I have spoken and read letters from hundreds of women about their experiences with abortion, and one thing I know is that abortion is almost always a profoundly moral choice. Women and men plan their families because they have respect and reverence for human life. Women who choose abortions do so because they love children…”

Gloria Feldt The War on Choice: the Right-Wing Attack on Women’s Rights and How to Fight Back (New York: Bantam Books, 2004) 103

Yes. They love children to death.
