Reply #7: This is not a new argument for those of us who have been fighting

[choicevoice]

this for years. Here is how the argument goes.

The answer they will give to your original argument about being against policies that help feed, clothes and educate children they answer: But our church does help them and god will provide. They will never get specific.

When they say there are so many people who want to love a child.
Our answer: There are in excess of 500,000 children out there now in foster homes, etc who need love and a home right now in America alone, plus around the world there are children in dire straights.
Them: But they want babies to raise.
Our answer: Then they are selfish. They don't really care about "children" they just want a baby.
Them: If a woman is pregnant why not just carry it to term and put it up for adoption?
Our Answer: So you want to FORCE a woman to breed so YOU can have a child? This makes that woman a brood mare for you. Putting a child up for adoption is not an easy decision.
Them: But abortion is murder and immoral.
Our answer: Murder is a legal term and according to the law abortio is not murder. IMMORAL is letting already born, breathing, sentient children live less than the life they could have if they had a home and someone to love them.

The message is that they want to FORCE WOMEN TO GESTATE AND GIVE BIRTH. Want to scare a woman? Tell her someone is going to FORCE her to BREED for their religious beliefs.
