Overview

Anti-abortion, most commonly under the larger umbrella of the more appealing term "pro-life", refers to the view that abortion is wrong, regardless of the reason, and should be illegal in most if not all cases

Groups

  • Army of God: "a pro-life organization that honors those who murder abortion providers as 'heroes'" according to [1]

Slogans

  • Life is a gift, not a choice.
  • "Abortion stops a beating heart." – only if the embryo is old enough to have one (apparently happens sometime during the 5th to 8th weeks of pregnancy), and so does capital punishment, eating meat (until vat-grown meat is available, anyway), hunting (for sport or food)...
  • "Your mother chose life." Not everyone is happy with this, despite popular assumption.
  • "Abortion: the worst kind of child abuse." Killing an entity with no nerves, much less consciousness, is worse than child abuse?
  • "As a former fetus, I oppose abortion." As a former fetus, I support it.
