Why Are You Pro-Choice?

Trent Horn discusses the issue of abortion and invites pro-choice listeners to explain why they are pro-choice.

Questions and Topics Covered:

• 17:05 - How does Scripture define the initiation of life?
• 28:12 - I am pro-choice because I am not the woman. It depends on rape or abusive situations. What is the Catholic view if a woman has an abortion because she is abused or raped?
• 34:40 - I am pro-choice because since life ends when the heart stops, shouldn’t life begin when the heart starts beating? Also, what is the proof that the zygote is an organism?
• 42:40 - I used to believe abortion was okay in the first trimester, but, my grandma went to prison for performing an abortion on her daughter when they were outlawed. As a result, I felt it was a woman’s right to choice. I was an unwed mother and chose life because of what happened.
• 45:40 - I am neutral. It is not for me to make that decision. Everyone has the right to choose for themselves.
• 50:25 - I am pro-choice because we all are. Everybody is pro-choice.
