Emergency Contraception and the Pro-Life Stance: Resolving the Apparent Conflict


Question
how can you be pro-life but say that emergency contraceptive is an abortion? thats kind of a contradiction dont you think?

Answer
No, I do not think it is a contradiction.  Pro-life means I value and respect all life, from conception to natural death.  An emergency contraceptive prevents a fertilized egg (conception occurs at fertilization) from implanting on the wall of the uterus.  Therefore, it is an abortion which is the unnatural early death of a living human person.  Why do you not agree with that?
