Reply #93: I think we should even be cautious [View All]

in discounting everyone who claims to be "pro life." I know many many people who are blue as can be on every other issue, but because of their faith background they believe firmly that life begins at conception. These are the ones who ARE working to improve the lives of babies growing up in poverty. There's a big difference between those who intentionally make abortion a wedge issue and those who don't agree with its legality at all but function appropriately in society anyway. It is a religious belief, plain and simple, and I don't understand why we take that and then vilify each and every one of them without knowing anything else about them. Sorry, but not all pro-lifers are hypocritical in their actions. Many are, but not all.
