First Post: What is this blog here for?

Today I am starting this blog. My plan is to use it to post my experiences with spreading the pro-life word, one person at a time. If you’re at all interested, please read the mission. Also, feel free to comment, and visit ortl.org, standupgirl.com, teens4lifegroup.blogspot.com, etc. Get involved in the pro-life movement!

My Mission

My goal is to start a conversation. People don’t discuss abortion like they do other issues, and that needs to be changed. As soon as people start to think about it, they will realize that we are right. Here’s what I do. If you want to give it a try, please do!

Go to a local coffeeshop.
Ask a random passerby if you can buy them coffee and talk with them for a few minutes
Ask them the survey questions (scroll down to see the survey)
Show them the Fetal Development video
Converse with them about why they feel the way they do about abortion
Encourage them to get more involved in the Pro-life movement
You might be surprised at the kind of ground you can gain

Survey

Introduce yourself, and make sure you tell them that you’re a student (if you are), and make them feel comfortable. Ask them for “Yes” or “No” answers to all questions.
Questions:
1. Do you think there should be less abortions?
2. Should abortion be used as a form of birth-control?

-- Show them the picture of a fetus at 18 weeks from fertilization (below)--

3. Is it wrong to abort this baby if he were diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome?
4. Is it wrong to abort this baby if the mother feels he would interfere with her career or education?
5. Is it wrong to abort this baby if the mother feels that she cannot afford to support him?
6. Is it wrong to abort this baby in the case of rape or incest?
7. Is it wrong to abort this baby if the mother feels she already has enough children?

-- Explain that currently in the US, abortions are preformed in all three trimesters for almost any reason (look up if your state has any restrictions. Oregon and Washington do not).--

8. Should it be made illegal to abort this baby if he were diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome?
9. Should it be made illegal to abort this baby if the mother feels he would interfere with her career or education?
10. Should it be made illegal to abort this baby if the mother feels that she cannot afford to support him?
11. Should it be made illegal to abort this baby in the case of rape or incest?
12. Should it be made illegal to abort this baby if the mother feels she has enough children?
13. Should be encourage women to consider adoption as an alternative to abortion?
