Reasons why I'm Pro-Life

1. Most importantly, I'm pro-life because I'm against violence, injustice, and unfairness. Biologically speaking, life begins at fertilization (meaning that a human organism is formed), and I don't see how someone can be human without being a person.
2. Abortion is very traumatic for anyone who is involved.
3. Abortion can be used for other evil things. For example:
-Historically, abortion was used for eugenics, and it still is. Sex-linked abortions are more common than we like to think, it is extremely common for unborn children to be aborted if they have a disability, and women of color may be pressured or even forced into abortion.
-Women are often coerced or even forced into abortion by their partners. Many men support abortion simply so they can be promiscuous and get away with it. Abortion may even be used to "hide" the fact that a woman was raped.
4. Abortion is often caused by a greater problem, such as shaming, abuse, or lack of resources. Abortion doesn't solve any problems, either. Abortion won't give a woman a better job, or a more loving family, and it won't stop her partner from abusing her. It will just make things worse.
5. There are better alternatives. There are things women can do to prevent pregnancy in the first place, and if they do get pregnant, they can get help from a pregnancy center. After giving birth, they can choose to either keep the baby or give him/her up for adoption.
