  • Next Generation of Pro-Life Leaders

    I thought you'd all appreciate this great article in Slate on the up-and-coming faces of the pro-life movement and how they are quite a bit different and more diverse than previous generations.

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      Here's one of the pertinent quotes from the OP...

      Despite recent setbacks, however, the demographic outlook for the pro-life movement looks anything but bleak. On issues from race to sexuality to drug law, Americans are used to seeing each new generation become more progressive than their parents; with abortion, it’s not happening: In a 2015 Public Religion Research Institute survey, 52 percent of millennials said the label “pro-life” describes them somewhat or very well, a number that roughly mirrors the general population. A 2013 poll showed that 52 percent of people aged 18 to 29 favored bans on abortion after 20 weeks, compared with 48 percent overall. Pro-choice activists now worry about the “intensity gap” among young people: A poll commissioned by NARAL Pro-Choice America in 2010 found that 51 percent of anti-abortion voters younger than 30 considered the issue “very important,” but for pro-choice voters the same age, only 26 percent said the same.

        I think it's important to point out that the movement doesn't necessarily include repeal of Roe v Wade. The pro-choice/pro-life dichotomy isn't really the conflict anymore.

          What do you see as the real conflict today?

            Internalizing possible consequences and taking appropriate steps vs the attitude that there's a safety net when things go 'awry'.

              Didn't it used to be that family took responsibility for family, feeding, clothing, whooping when needed?

                  Amazingly I've seen a secular/atheistic and agnostic group that's pro-life because of health reasons, many are physicians and nurses, and some are lay people. Part of it has a lot to do with the complications they've treated post abortion. For other reasons mentioned they are pro-life, due to human anatomy and development. Its quite interesting.
