As a result of abortion, we have lost family members, friends, and connections. There are millions of relationships, both online and offline, that simply dont exist because weve been systematically eliminating part of our population. The greatest nation in the world has been impoverished by that compassion deficit that abortion creates. Excellent point!

How is pointing out that 50 MILLION Americans have been murdered in the past 35 years “ridiculous hyperbole”?

Yes, this can be taken to odd logical conclusions. For example, what about her friend Alicia, who never would have been born if her mother had carried John to term back in college—deciding not to have any more children, or not to marry the same man, or whatever?
Or how about the billions of fetuses that are lost before mothers even know they are pregnant—why do we not think about them as potential friends?
Etc.
It’s a good emotional technique, but we should recognize it for what it is. The popularity of scenarios such as “It’s a Wonderful Life” demonstrate the mass appeal of the technique of such speculation, but let’s not fool ourselves that these exercises are complete, logical, or close to rigorous.

Anything to avoid the reality that 50 MILLION babies were deliberately murdered right?

Pro-lifers on Facebook and MySpace should create pages for those killed by abortion, indicating when they died, in what state, what they might have been interested in, cures for cancer they might have discovered, etc.
To: Gondring
“Or how about the billions of fetuses that are lost before mothers even know they are pregnantwhy do we not think about them as potential friends?”
Simple. Because there are just too many of them to think about. And because their deaths were from natural causes. At least they weren’t murdered.
Of course, one of the popular, though absurd arguments for abortion is that “God causes millions of abortions a year,” therefore abortion should be legal. Logically, this means that because God causes lots of people to die at the age of fifty, it should be legal to kill fifty-year-olds on a whim. And ten-year-olds, eighty-year-olds, etc.

Huh? It means we'll see how many others think it's silly.
How hard was that?

Abortion isn’t just about who “might have been born.” Deciding to marry a different man, for instance, means that different children will be born. But deciding to marry THIS man rather than THAT man isn’t murder! Abortion IS murder.
