Trent Horn discusses the issue of abortion and invites pro-choice listeners to explain why they are pro-choice.
Questions and Topics Covered:
- 03:44 - I am pro-life but became politically pro-choice because: murder is the killing of a person; nobody has proven the first trimester fetus is a person; the murder suspect is innocent until proven guilty.
- 14:47 - I am pro-choice because I am very rational and informed. Raped women made pregnant should be allowed to make a decision to terminate the pregnancy.
- 21:01 - I am pro-choice because if someone like Charles Manson’s mother had had an abortion, many people would be alive.
- 29:24 - I am circumstantially pro-choice. It depends on the situation of the mother. If the circumstances surrounding the child’s birth would be very negative, I wouldn’t want the child to suffer in life. It seems like the mother should make the choice.
- 41:18 - I am politically pro-choice. Laws come after the creation of life. The only one who should pass judgement on us is God.
- 46:05 - I don’t think abortion should be illegal because I think it’s too aggressive a move in the secular culture.
- 50:00 - I was pro-choice, I am now pro-life, however, I never resolved the ethical dilemma of teenage girls having the condition of aneurysms and AVM (arteriovenous malformation) that can easily cause death in pregnancy, making the decision to abort the baby.
