2-But seeing w/ their owns eyes a helpless & vulnerable unborn baby did something no slogan or political campaign ever could. The second thing I’ve observed is an up close encounter w/ a child who many would say should “obviously” been aborted b/c of the circumstances involved.

4-is when pro-choice people see pro-life people joining them to stand against lives lost via genocide, sex trafficking, preventable deaths b/c lack of vaccines, clean water. I’ve seen people who stand up for the lives of both born & unborn people persuade those who are pro-choice
5-that human rights must all to all humans, born & unborn. I should caveat that I’ve only ever seen change in any of these categories where LOVE & COMPASSION are on abundant display. Here’s to love & life - for every human person.
