I liked the way my DH put it: "the so-called "pro-lifers" have zero chances of winning an argument based on logic or reason; their logic is dogma".

So you can cite 1.000.000 scientific studies - you still made zero progress in presenting them your side of the story.I honestly think that when we write such things we write them for other pro-choice people, not for their eyes or ears.

By the way, I feel extremely uncomfortable calling these people "pro-lifers" and playing their game. Their position has SQUAT to do with life per se, and everything to do with an abstract dogma.

If these people were indeed so "in love" with the idea of LIFE they would:

1. also oppose capital punishment under ALL circumstances.
2. also oppose any form of war whatsoever.
3. also make sure everyone GETS TO have A LIFE, not just be given birth and thrown into a place full of misery and struggle.

I find them upsettingly hypocrytical, irrational and ill-willed against humanity and I refuse to refer to them as pro-LIFE people.This is not about LIFE. It's about a DOGMA.

Any "together" person who calls them by this self-proclaimed title only makes their game and fuels their irrationality and rigid cruelty further.
