It’s basically impossible to argue a pro-life stance against a pro-choice argument, because the argument just gets turned around on the anti-abortion (pro-life) proponent. The conversation goes something like:
“Absent intervention, life would happen naturally, therefore to intervene at any stage of pregnancy is the deliberate ending of a human life… and we all know what that is called.”
“Oh well, my good friend ********* had an abortion last year, are you calling her a murderer”?
(End of conversation).
But that’s basically what it is! “To abort” is just a medically-sterile and innocuous way of saying “to kill”. How can it be otherwise?
