Why You Shold Be Pro Life

I’m sure most of us on here are already pro-life, but I just wanted to share a new video by one of my favorite YouTubers, Julie Borowski. She’s a policy analyst for FreedomWorks and does a lot of great videos and wanted to share this one with you!

She is giving reasons why people should become pro-life. Though I do disagree with her view on legalization. I believe her argument is outlawing it won’t really stop it completely but instead bring a rise to the black market demand for it, so instead of focusing on the law we should focus on changing society because once we have a pro-life culture and society laws will follow.

While I agree that we need to change the culture, I am in favor of laws against it (because it IS murder) at the state level (like murder is).

Anyways, enjoy the video! (and remember, not every libertarian is a crazy, pro-abortion pot head)

She is right in this sense.

Eating one’s own earwax is legal, but no-one does it because it is seen as an unusually yucky thing to do.

If the heart of society could be changed then we wouldn’t need to change the laws about abortion because we wouldn’t need to apply the laws about abortion… everyone would be naturally against abortion.

I think we sometimes shoot ourselves in the foot when we come across as rabid anti-abortionists who repel the pro-choicers. We need to be winning hearts and minds, not telling people they are sick and evil. You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

If we don’t change hearts and minds we will never win this war.

I would like increasingly strict laws on abortion in Canada, but we are not even going to get to first base with the current state of play. Those who are against abortion are painted as religious nut-bars on the one hand, and those who are pro-choice are painted as baby-killing leftists on the other.

In my view the dialogue needs to change.

I show this video to my students in grade 12

And yes, I pray outside the local abortion clinics.
