Glenn Beck Destroys the Myth That Pro-Life People are Just Pro-Birth in One Single Tweet
LIFE NEWS ^ | November 19, 2018 | Micaiah Bilger

Conservative media personality Glen Beck dismantled a popular pro-abortion myth in a short, simple tweet over the weekend.

Beck was accused of being “pro-birth” after sharing a LifeNews.com article about Hollywood actresses hosting a party to celebrate their abortions. It is a common attack lobbed at pro-life advocates, but it is ridiculously false.

Offering no evidence to support her claim, a Twitter user named Carol Valentine told Beck: “When those who yell about the rights of the unborn child actually step up to care for that child throughout the child’s life, then I will feel that those protesters are actually pro-life. Until then, they are only ‘pro-birth’ and couldn’t care less once the baby is born.”

FYI-I adopted my son from a teenage mother who couldn’t care for her baby. Now, is this reasonable: until those who will let a killer move into their home, I won’t listen to those against the death penalty? Or don’t talk to me about the holocaust, Until you adopt a Jew.

Beck is right. Pro-life advocates do a lot to support babies after birth, as well as before. They donate countless hours and money to pregnancy centers and maternity homes, many of which provide resources up through the first two years of the baby’s life. Some open their homes to pregnant and parenting mothers, and many adopt children as babies and through foster care. Student pro-life groups work to provide better accommodations for pregnant and parenting students on their college campuses. Many others befriend and mentor families as they struggle and grow.

There always will be problems in the world, but this sad fact should not keep people from working to end injustices where they can. Babies will be born into an imperfect world, but they still deserve a right to life.

More always needs to be done to protect human rights, but the gaps in these protections never should be used as an excuse for destroying the rights of the most vulnerable human beings in our world today.

I still remember when Glenn adopted that child. He and his wife could not have kids. They adopted that kid then his wife got pregnant.

It’s more of a lie than a myth. Still I suppose lies can become myths to the less gifted...

So, if I talk someone out of murdering her child, I have to make breakfast lunch and dinner for him for the rest of his life?

Maybe, after I talk her out of murdering him, I can talk her into actually caring for him. That would be a step in the right direction.

This is why I don’t work the suicide hotlines. I’m afraid lefties say I don’t really mean to help unless I take care of the person’s bills for the rest of their lives.

I 100% would take care of any child if a mother was contemplating abortion. If I knew ahead of time, I would choose life and support that kid into adulthood.
The problem is that it is done in secret. SO many people would adopt these kids.

My wife and I did. The baby was born addicted to heroin and didn't get a proper detox.

She gave us 18 years of hell that affected our other kids.

Don't know if I would do it again.
