QuestionI am doing a Persuasive Essay on being pro life. I would like to hear some of your arguments for being pro life. I want to persuade everybody that being pro life is the right way. Not only by nature, but also by god. Anything will help! I have a few ideas of my own but I would like the to hear the voice of others!
AnswerSara,
I believe that life, even though not totally formed of course, is forming from the time of conception, and that life needs to be given the opportunity to mature.
A life cut short pre-birth is never given the opportunity to experience happiness, joys, ups and downs, and even heartache. Certainly life can hold a lot of bad situations for each of us, but there is so much potential for good. A living being should be able to be brought to fruition.
From a Christian standpoint, God's word, the Bible, shows that God knows each of us while even in our mother's womb (I do not have the verses handy, but they are in there without a doubt, please look them up). Would a God who acknowledges our existence before we are born want us to not be born? It would not seem logical to say so. There is no greater miracle than life given us by God.
Being pro-life demands having courage. On some important national issues and on morality, there seems to be shades of gray, rather than just black and white, right and wrong. I am glad you are standing up for your beliefs.
I wish you the best.
