Yes...there is....26 X World Champs said:I read your post and I'm confused? What do you mean that people are "pro-death"? Please show me of whom you speak? You want me to believe there's a movement out there that want to use abortion to promote death?
“It has been left to the very latest modernists to proclaim an erotic religion which at once exalts lust and forbids fertility.....The next great heresy is going to be simply an attack on morality, and especially on sexual morality.”
"Over-civilization and barbarism are within an inch of each other. And a mark of both is the power of medicine-men."
"To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it."
"Fallacies do not cease to be fallacies because they become fashions."
~~all quotes are the words of G.K. Chesterton
There is a culture war—and it is between those who favor life and morality and those who favor death and vice. Those at the fringe end of the death and vice side of the spectrum are pro-death.

ARCHITECTS OF THE CULTURE OF DEATH
by Donald DeMarco & Benjamin Wiker
(Ignatius, 2004, 410pp, $33.00. Available from AD Books)
The "Culture of Death" has become a popular phrase, and is much bandied about in academic circles. Yet, for most people, its meaning remains vague and remote. DeMarco and Wiker have given the Culture of Death high definition and frightening immediacy. They have exposed its roots by introducing its "architects."
In a scholarly, yet reader-friendly delineation of the mindsets of twenty-three influential thinkers, such as Ayn Rand, Charles Darwin, Karl Marx, Jean-Paul Sartre, Alfred Kinsey, Margaret Sanger, Jack Kevorkian, and Peter Singer, they make clear the aberrant thought and malevolent intentions that have shaped the Culture of Death.

Mr. Chesterton's quote again...You want to prevent a woman from choosing what to do with her body, which is her right and is protected by the Constitution and you make your argument by comparing this right to a societal breakdown that would allow for stealing and other crimes that are illegal? Need I remind you that abortion IS LEGAL?
"To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it."
Fine...how about "lying"...When you say you are personally against something but that other people should have the right to do it....you say NOTHING. Can you be personally against lying...but support other's right to lie? Not if you have a respect for the truth you can't. That is the logic error I was pointing out to you. If you claim to dislike abortion personally, but you don't take a stand against it--you are either lazy--or for it. I don't respect either of those positions.
