Ed Cline: What is your attitude towards women as individuals?

Abortion is Pro Life — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 23:11:41 +0000

Edward Cline levies some excellent criticisms of Daniel Greenfield’s post at Sultan Knish: Violence On Their Behalf. Comments Cline: Women do have the right of ownership of their bodies; unconscious, dependent fetuses do not own the bodies of their hosts. You can argue the subject from an emotionalist perspective – and then it’s not arguing, [...]

Abortion is Pro Life — Sat, 30 Mar 2013 14:05:52 +0000

Shades of Living Proof: Embryo Tracking

Abortion is Pro Life — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 04:36:17 +0000

Sometimes the truth is a strange as fiction. As an example take a proposed legislation in Arizona (SB 1376) that is eerily similar to the scenario presented in the fiction novel, Living Proof. Writes Jodi Jacobson on In New Push for “Personhood,” Arizona Anti-Choicers Push Bill to Track Every Embryo: An Arizona group seeking to [...]

Grasping the essence of the abortion issue

Abortion is Pro Life — Wed, 14 Nov 2012 20:47:06 +0000

The two key issues to focus on are: the nature of a fetus, and the nature of individual rights. The first issue to grasp is the difference between potential and actual. A fetus is not an actual human being, but is human tissue. A fetus is only a potential human being, just like an acorn [...]

Writes Rand: “I cannot project the degree of hatred required to make those women run around in crusades against abortion. Hatred is what they certainly project, not love [...]
