I’ve been trying to talk myself out of writing this piece, mostly because there’s so much other good commentary out there on this subject. But over and over I find myself pondering these questions and seeing very few in the Evangelical pro-life movement who are addressing them. Let me emphasize that none of the following ideas is new with me, just that they don’t seem to get much if any airing in my circles. And that’s my purpose here: to give these ideas an airing. I’ll tell you up front that I’m not going to end with a list of quick and easy solutions. I just want to prod my readers, most of whom would identify as pro-life, to think about the ramifications of that term and to be able to engage in rational discourse with those who would disagree with them. We need the very best weapons available in the fight for life.
