Defending Pro-LIfe (part 2 of 9) Apologetics, Abortion

[gmdinformation]

Good video GC.

[grandconjunct]

coming from one of my favorite video makers on youtube that is a major complement.

Abortion is murder plain and simple, and if a woman wants to really kill her unborn child, she will find a way. either find someone to kill the baby or kill it herself. where we as children of life should draw the line is the legality of abortion and the funding of killing preborn babies. if america wants to allow (legalize) the murder of preborn babies and use tax dollars (which makes us all guilty) than we are instructed to separate spiritually from this evil kingdom lest we suffer her fate

[AnthonyBlunt]

I think Pro-lifers should make a shift in language. Instead of speaking of the "unborn" child we should speak of the "preborn" child. I think that language inherently makes the point much more compellingly.

[grandconjunct]

I have never heard that distinction Anthony, what is the advantage ?

[AnthonyBlunt]

I think the term "preborn" implies that the moment of birth is less important. I guess "prebirth" is more technically correct; a prebirth child has no different rights than a postbirth child. However, "prebirth" sounds a little awkward and thus unusable. In any case, I don't think the term "unborn" generates sympathy for the child; in fact, it almost makes it sound alien.

Language is important in winning public debates.

[grandconjunct]

I like your thinking Anthony, Excellent.

And another thing, pro life people need to stop using religion as a argument and start arguing from a bio ethical standpoint.

Where do you get all of these images?

[grandconjunct]

All over the Net young man.

[ThatChristian]

I imagine so. My word, you must spend a lot of time hunting them down.

[grandconjunct]

Not really just send me a yahoo / gmail email adrress to my youtube I.M. box, and I will send you a lot of short cuts.

[ThatChristian]

No, that's really fine. I prefer to do my own graphics. Thanks anyway, though.

[grandconjunct]

I like your attitude TC, I try and be as innovative and creative as possible myself, but i figure everyone needs to emulate first before they can innovate, especially in Video where you have to combine artistic and technical skill, It seems to me I have to learn the rules, before I can break them as I heard one musician/ artist say once. but if anyone wants some links to speed up the process I will be happy to share.
