Pro-Choice

(No expressed objections to abortion, and opposed to legal penalties against it)

• "If you look at the issue, you'll see that this isn't about the children. There are children starving in the sewers of Persia. There are babies in the AIDS wards, chucked out into the streets like … cabbage. If this were really about the children, they'd be doing something about the children that are already here. I don't play that game."
  • Tori Amos

• "My friend, O' Lordy
  Went to take care of her own body
  She got shot down in the road
  She looked up before she went
  She said "This isn't really what I meant"
  And the daily news said "2 with 1 stone"
  • Sheryl Crow, "Hard to Make a Stand"

• "We lived our dreams and challenged fate
  In tears she told me she was late
  Then Sally let his pidgeons out to fly
  She left one night with just a nod
  Was lost in some back alley job
  I close my eyes and Sally's pidgeons fly"
  • Cyndi Lauper, "Sally's Pidgeons"

• "Why is it that most of the people who are against abortion are people you wouldn't want to fuck in the first place?"
  • George Carlin

• "Why is it that when it's us, it's an "abortion" and when it's chicken it's an "omelette"? Are we so much better than chickens all of a sudden?"
  • George Carlin

• "To meet this problem as a great scientist has recently pointed out, we need not more of the fit, but fewer of the unfit. It would be unbelievable, unless it were not a cruel fact of our American civilization, that syphilitics, consumptives, epileptics and semi idiots are permitted to propagate their own curse, both what is called legitimately and illegitimately. Is it not time to protect ourselves and our children and our children's children? The propagation of the degenerate, the imbecile, the feeble minded, should be prevented."
  • Margaret Sanger; Birth Control Review Volume V, Number 8, (1921) p.19

• "Neglect of an effective birth control policy is a never-failing source of poverty which, in turn, is the parent of revolution and crime."
  • Aristotle, Politics, circa. 350 BC

• "If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament."
  • Florynce Kennedy

• "Never mind the vicious nonsense of claiming that an embryo has a 'right to life.' A piece of protoplasm has no rights -— and no life in the human sense of the term. One may argue about the later stages of a pregnancy, but the essential issue concerns only the first three months. To equate a potential with an actual, is vicious; to advocate the sacrifice of the latter to the former, is unspeakable."
  • Ayn Rand

• "A feminazi is a woman to whom the most important thing in life is seeing to it that as many abortions as possible are performed."

• "After tens of millions of [abortion] 'procedures,' has America lost anything? Another Edison, perhaps? A Gershwin? A Babe Ruth? A Duke Ellington? … As it is, we will never know what abortion has cost us all."
  • Joseph Sobran, Editorial Columnist

• "It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish."
  • Mother Teresa

• "It is statistically confirmed that the most dangerous place to be with in regard to the preservation of one's life is in the womb of a mother, who is being told that if she doesn't want her baby she can abort its life."
  • Unknown

• "We cannot diminish the value of one category of human life—the unborn—without diminishing the value of all human life."
  • Ronald Reagan

• "We should not be surprised at the epidemic of child abuse. Obviously there is a connection between what we can do to a baby in the first nine months of life in the womb, and thereafter."
  • Princeton Ethicist Paul Ramsey

• "When we look to the unborn child, the real issue is not when life begins, but when love begins."
  • Robert Casey

• Message from the Blessed Virgin Mary, Midnight Apparition, at Holy Love Shrine (Elyria, OH), September 15, 2001 -- just four days after "9/11":

"Dear children, during this hour of grief, understand that your Heavenly Mother stands at the foot of the Cross with you. I sorrow with you for this senseless loss of life. Place your sorrow deep within the wounds of My Jesus.”

“My message to you as a nation is this: GOD ALONE IS THE GIVER AND TAKER OF LIFE. Whenever man presumes to take upon himself the role of God, the world is changed forever.”

“A stark parallel emerges from this national tragedy. Within minutes the false sense of security this nation enjoyed was stripped away. Lives were destroyed. Violent death was incurred upon the innocent. So too, in the womb the security of the innocent baby is destroyed within minutes. Life is destroyed by the evil plans of another. It is called ‘abortion’, but it varies little from the national disaster your nation now mourns. Yet, who mourns with Me at the foot of the Cross for the senseless loss of these innocent lives? As a nation I invite you -— I plead with you -— to do so. Do not mourn one national tragedy and ignore the other.”

“Just as the planes became instruments of death by penetrating those buildings with a destructive force, so too, the instruments of the abortionists invade the privacy of the womb -— wielding death. In each case the terrorists and the participants in abortion feel justified through convoluted thinking.”

“But My Son, the Just Judge, does not reason this way. He reasons with a righteous Heart. In His Infinite Mercy He stands ready to forgive the contrite heart -— even the heart guilty of such heinous acts as these. My Jesus does not forgive the unrepentant.”

“My dear children, I have come to you so that you may be reconciled with God. The path of reconciliation is Holy Love. The path of judgment is arrogance, hatred and vengeance. God’s judgment falls upon those people and nations who do not live in love. Therefore, I have come to call all people and every nation under the seal of Holy Love.”

“If you live in Holy Love -— that is, your heart is loving -— you will have love in your world around you. If you have evil in your heart, that too, will spread to the world around you. Evil begets evil. Love begets love.”

Indefinite

(these statements, whatever the intent and opinions of the authors, make no declarations that can definitely be positioned in any of the three categories)

• "No one wants an abortion as she wants an ice cream cone or a Porsche. She wants an abortion as an animal, caught in a trap, wants to gnaw off its own leg."
  • Frederica Mathewes-Green

• "And, by the way, my belief is that if men were the ones getting pregnant, abortions would be easier to get than food poisoning in Moscow."
  • Dennis Miller

• "I have a different stance on abortion: I'm against abortion, but for killing babies. That way everyone loses, and I win. I'm neither pro choice, nor pro life; I'm pro you-shutting-the-hell-up. The only way I'd be "pro choice" is if it meant I could choose which babies I could abort, and only then if I could lift the age restriction to 80."
  • Maddox

• "And should men quarrel and hit a pregnant woman, and she miscarries but there is no fatality, he shall surely be punished, when the woman's husband makes demands of him, and he shall give [restitution] according to the judges' [orders]."
  • The Bible in Exodus 21:22

• "If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman’s husband demands and the court allows. But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life."
  • The Bible in [Exodus 21:22]
