on tuesday, i will take full advantage of this freedom. i am planning on participating in the prolife day of silent solidarity.
prolife day is a day where people from all over the world make a silent protest against abortion. it's one of my favorite days of the year because it is a day where i get to join thousands of other prolifers in standing up for what i believe in.
i've talked to many people about my stance on abortion, and a lot of them have different views than mine. i do everything i can to make my point heard without making people feel like i'm shoving my opinion down their throat. a few questions/arguments that i hear often are;
1. what if the mother can't take care of the child?
pleasepleaseplease consider the idea of adoption. there are loads of people out there who would be completely willing to take the child into their home and give him/her a beautiful life.
2. what if a girl gets raped?
the way i see it, whether she has that child or not, she will always have that memory of being raped. you can't get rid of the memory of being raped by aborting the child. if the girl has the child and puts it up for adoption, she won't have the added emotional stress that comes along with an abortion. and she will know that something good came out of her being raped; another beautiful person will experience the world.
3. if the fetus you save is gay, will you continue to protect its rights?
yes. whether or not the fetus ends up being gay/lesbian/homosexual, i still believe he/she has the right to live.
i realize that everyone has their own unique situation and opinion on this topic. i'm not trying to offend or hurt anyone.
this is what i believe.
and i will respect your beliefs also.
if you have any questions for me, please ask. i would love to talk to you. if you want to participate in the prolife day of silence and have any questions, click here.
i'd also like to apologize for both myself and anyone else who has ever upset you or seemed forceful about being prolife. i'm personally trying very hard to continue standing up for what i believe in without being passionate to the point of pushing people away.
