But today I want to talk about why you do not need to be ashamed to be pro-life.
00:00:33.540
I think we live in an era where being pro-life is something you can't talk about openly,
00:00:43.780
If you have followed my channel for a while, you know that I am very openly pro-life,
00:00:51.060
So today I want to tell you why you don't have to feel bad about being pro-life,
00:00:55.720
even in today's climate, because at the end of the day, being pro-life is the only position
00:01:10.500
There's no other time in the development of a fetus, in the development of a baby,
00:01:16.940
that you could arbitrarily decide is when life begins.
00:01:20.940
It has to begin at the beginning, when the sperm and the egg meet.
00:01:25.860
Trying to come up with any other time in the lifespan of a baby makes no sense.
00:01:32.080
You can say that it's viability, which is what Roe v. Wade tried to do.
00:01:36.560
And the fact of the matter is, as science gets better and better, viability changes.
00:01:41.180
As well as the fact that, what does viability even mean?
00:01:44.960
A baby, when it is born, cannot do anything by itself.
00:01:52.180
It doesn't make any sense scientifically to be pro-choice.
00:01:59.380
It's, I don't want this baby, therefore I can get rid of it.
00:02:03.120
It isn't a life to me because it's not something that I chose or that I wanted at this time.
00:02:11.360
Science is a sperm and an egg meet, create a zygote, and from that meeting, we can grow life.
00:02:17.600
It is absolutely, unabashedly, the most scientific argument to be pro-life.
00:02:25.280
And I feel like that's a pretty easy argument to make.
00:02:27.980
I mean, people may say that it isn't a life until it can feel, until it has a heartbeat,
00:02:32.860
until it is any of the things that they want to decide, like I said arbitrarily, makes it alive.
00:02:46.660
Number two is that being pro-life means being consistent.
00:02:50.160
It's so paradoxical when a pro-choice person says that it's not a life when they want to abort the baby,
00:02:58.500
when the baby doesn't fit in with their plans, or they're unprepared, or whatever other reason they may have
00:03:07.380
But if they have a miscarriage, it was a baby, and they can mourn that child.
00:03:11.780
Now, I'm not saying that someone who's pro-choice doesn't have the right to mourn their child.
00:03:16.480
Absolutely they do, because it's natural, because it's their baby that they lost.
00:03:20.600
As someone who had a miscarriage, I would not hold that against anyone.
00:03:24.300
But my point here is that you don't get to choose what makes a life have worth.
00:03:30.240
Just because you didn't want the baby at this point doesn't make that baby any less worthy of living
00:03:36.640
than the baby that you did want that you miscarried.
00:03:43.880
Why would a miscarried baby be something you can mourn over?
00:03:48.900
As opposed to the baby that you didn't want and therefore isn't a baby to you.
00:03:54.400
Being pro-life means that you recognize that a baby's a baby no matter what you wanted.
00:04:02.520
Number three is being pro-life means being pro-woman.
00:04:06.340
You will be told that being pro-life means that you are anti-woman,
00:04:12.300
Being pro-life means that you are protecting the lives of women in the womb.
00:04:16.240
Women in the womb are aborted at much higher rates than men in the womb.
00:04:20.240
So you are protecting the lives of those who cannot speak for themselves,
00:04:24.660
of those women who cannot speak for themselves.
00:04:26.920
Women in the womb have rights too, and we as pro-life people defend those rights.
00:04:33.240
Last but not least, being pro-life is the compassionate position.
00:04:38.060
Often we are told that being pro-life means that we don't care about the women who are in bad situations
00:04:43.500
or who get pregnant and aren't ready to be mothers.
00:04:46.560
But how is it compassionate to tell a woman who has gotten into a situation she wasn't prepared for
00:04:52.360
that she should abort her child, that she should not be a mother,
00:04:56.400
that she's not ready to be a mother, that she's not worthy of being a mother,
00:04:59.320
instead of offering her the help and support she needs?
00:05:04.620
Pregnancy centers provide help to women, to mothers,
00:05:07.820
so that they can bear their children and have help.
00:05:11.200
The fact of the matter is, is that being pro-life means being compassionate
00:05:14.840
because we provide women with the help that they need to do a task that they may not have been ready for,
00:05:23.620
you're right, you are too weak to do this, you can't have this child, you might as well kill it.
00:05:29.000
Being pro-life is compassionate not only to the baby, but to mothers as well.
00:05:33.240
And being pro-life means supporting women so that they can be the mothers they were born to be.
00:05:40.720
and I hope that you leave feeling bolstered in your position as a pro-life person.
