BC Students for Life is united by the idea that all life has equal and immense value. We strive to protect the most vulnerable form of life ~ the preborn.
MYTH: Thousands of women will die if abortion is illegal.
FACT: The 1989 abortion ban in Chile was correlated to a near complete reduction in abortion-related maternal mortality. In 2008, Chile had the second lowest maternal mortality rate in the Americas.
It's not difficult to distinguish between D&C for missed miscarriage vs for elective abortion. It's like distinguishing between cremation vs setting a live person on fire. "It's the same process" - yes, you've named a similarity. Now can you spot any differences?
The baby was viable and 28 weeks old. Old enough to be born and survive. They birthed him & stuffed him in a plastic bag. This is a murder case and media groups are trying to spin it as if it isn’t. The 17 year old: “I will finally be able to wear jeans. Fuck yes.” Horrific.
@pdferguson @KristanHawkins Legal definitions don't determine the essence of what something is. You should know that. So no, legality doesn't determine the personhood of ANY being, born or preborn.
@pdferguson @KristanHawkins "Person" and "personhood" are philosophical terms, that is also used in the legal system. You seem to go with whatever the law says. So would that mean that if the law regards black people as 3/5 of a person, than that would be it for you??
@pdferguson @KristanHawkins There is nothing "inaccurate" about refering to a fetus as a preborn baby. But yes, what is most important regarding legality, is whether or not we are referring to a human PERSON.
@pdferguson @KristanHawkins Why do you people can't seem to have a conversation without insulting people?
Look up the definition of a child, because what your 'definition' is inaccurate. Also, we all know that wanted babies are referred to as... BABIES. Why? Because babies are children...
Bit crazy to me that PCers will suggest we're pro-life because we haven't had to deal with pregnancy. I've been pregnant multiple times. I've given birth via emergency c-section & VBAC. I've miscarried two children. I mean what is this nonsense? Countless parents are pro-life.
1) Pro-life women experience the same pregnancy-related complications as pro-choice women.
2) The phrase "women around them" implies (again) that mostly or only men oppose abortion - a total falsehood.
Stop erasing pro-life women.
Bizarre to me when people emphasize fetuses haven't taken their first breath. Yes, and? Is exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide via the lungs more important than doing so via the umbilical cord?
Just alerted to a case where a surrogate mother of a 30 week-old baby boy is planning to get an abortion because the boy's parents have decided they don't want him after all.
Please pray for his life to be spared
