Question

Please don't give me any B.S. links or articles from websites...I want to know what you think.

lol...that's sick (the shower answer).

Answer 1

Some don't, some do, depends on a lot of things really, but given as the majority of pro-life supporters are ignorant on conception, reproduction, and pregnancy the ones who do use contraception are probably unaware of the connection and hypocrisy in it.

I think a lot of pro-lifers follow Natural Law – this is where it is believed that everything has a final effect, and that final effect is the will of God, so sex is the cause and the final effect is pregnancy/cause of a child is pregnancy – a way around this of course is to use birth control methods like Natural Family Planning (using scientific methods to determine when a woman is fertile, abstaining from sex while she is fertile).

For the most part they just don't understand the difference or similarities, there are no strong lines between a fertalized egg and a baby within the womb, some will say as soon as an egg is fertalized it is wrong to terminate, others will just guess at when it is considered suddenly to be a human life – normally when they or the woman finds out they are pregnant, this is how they determine where their line stands.

It does stand to make a good argument when they come along claiming we shouldn't have choice to care for ourselves and our [potential] children as we see fit because it is 'murder'. What is even better is when you go into even more grey areas not just things such as emergency contraception but when you go into herbal abortion or induced miscarriage (use of herbs and other methods to bring about body rejecting pregnancy) as there is no clear line between using these methods for menstrual problems, inducing menstruation, as birth control, as emergency birth control, as use for abortion and natural miscarriage – this stumps even the most educated of pro-life supporters.

Answer 2

This is one of those questions that get to me. I guess I'm in the middle when it comes to abortion, I think woman should have the choice but not use an abortion as a form of birth control. If a person is Pro Life just because they are using birth control does not make them a hypocrite. The sperm never come in contact with the egg so there is no fertilization which means there is no fetus growing in the body.

Answer 3

The few pro-life people I know still use contraceptives.

What irks me about the general mass of the pro-life movement is that, not only do they oppose unwanted or dangerous pregnancies, they also oppose day-after and similar forms of pills that would prevent any semblance of life from ever forming.

There is just no middle ground at all, and no rational compromise.

Answer 4

If they use a condom or the pill how are they hypocrites? The sperm never gets to the egg, so no life is formed. Pro-life means to me that you believe once life is created it should not be destroyed.

Answer 5

Actually, if they use protection, they won't (Hopefully) have to worry about putting their views to the test. They hopefully won't get pregnant and won't be faced with that decision since most of them have probably never even been in that situation to really know what they would do. I think everyone who does not want a baby, prochoice or prolife should abstain or use some sort of birth control/controceptive.

Answer 6

Hilarious!!! Kudos, man. While we're at it; how at all? Check Blue Pill Sales! Easier to have a philosophy than to live by it.

Answer 7

I'm a pro-life kinda guy and I believe that if a chick wants an abortion it's her choice.

Answer 8

Whenever I uh, "pull one off" in the shower, I remind my roommates not to step on my children when it's their turn to shower.

Answer 9

You have a good point there. Something that few people think about.

Answer 10

Howmany prolifers have adopted any of the kids they say can be adopted?
