It’s mostly about maintaining cheap labor.

Sure, maybe some average Joes really do care about pro-life. But to the conservative economic elites, it’s about the working class being too busy raising kids to pursue education and realize the value of their labor.

Cuz the whole “pro-life” thing, as has been mentioned, is not so much about protecting life and lives, so much as it is just about forced-birth radicalism.

It’s painting with a broad brush, and there are inevitable exceptions and whatnot. But I’m more inclined to accept some underlying economic motivation, than I am able to believe the “pro-life” movement as it is currently aligned really is that concerned about fetuses.

Oh my god.


So i finally decided to read back through this instead of just talking about Bob Ross.

This is probably the dumbest fucking comment on this site. Seriously. Good god, this might take the lead from "Fry cookers have a tougher more stressful job than the CEO"

(This would be a lot more fun if you guys made the effort to contribute something more substantive than petty personal attacks.)

There are probably some devout religious people whose feelings on the topic are sincere but they seem to be a tiny portion of the Pro-Life argument.

My favorite part is how quickly they go MIA when actually asked about anything.

Seriously how can anyone really respond to what you presented in your original post?

That people aren't actually pro life, they are all pro cheap labor? That's about as Q as it gets.

Nothing wrong with this opinion. I'm certainly and unequivocally pro choice, particularly in certain circumstances. But you need to calm down Qusdahl.

you don’t see anything wrong with the hypocrisy of viewing life as sacred while in the womb, but then letting that ideal go out the door after birth?

and i know that doesn’t describe all pro-lifers

for me, i just don’t think abortion should be used as a means of birth control...i’m proud-choice, but generally anti-abortion
