Abortion makes a women's body and offspring the accountable parties for the social crisis she is experiencing. Is she abused? Blame her body and kill her kid. Is she poor? Blame her body and kill her kid. Is she ambitious? Blame her body and kill her kid. It's all sick.

If we need abortion because of maternal mortality, why do black women have the worst maternal mortality outcomes as well as the highest abortion rates? Shouldn't it be helping them? Or maybe, just hear me out, we can improve maternal mortality WITHOUT killing humans.

The one thing an abortion actually does is kill a woman's offspring. It doesn't improve anyone's financial situation, protect from abuse, improve relationships, or finish college. Women speaking of no regret highlight their circumstances but suppress thoughts of their abortion.

@secularprolife It's also false in another way. Sperm only causes fertilization. Sperm do not cause pregnancy. A woman's own body is the determining factor in pregnancy. Some women just resent the way their bodies work and want to find a scapegoat for Biology.

If you've had a miscarriage, you have had an abortion. The medical term for a miscarriage is “spontaneous abortion”. Your doctors have likely sheltered you from this terminology, rendered unspeakable by politicians with the intention of shaming and disempowering you.

This is important because when the pro-life community talks about women being victims, it's not because we think the woman has no responsibility for the part she's played in the abortion. However, we know that her slice of the pie might be much smaller than most think.

Well, today, I've had both a Christian abortion abolitionist telling me I'll be judged by God and Christian pro-choicer blocking me after THEY are the one to ask me a question. Am I doing Twitter right yet?

I see several pro-life people who struggle to take a hard line on abortion because they deeply care about women. This is a genuine concern, and truly, the things that induce women to choose abortion can be truly heartbreaking! And so some see abortion as evil, but necessary.

@KiwiBreeder This would be a great conversation over a cup of tea but it's hard to summarize over Twitter. But the long and short of it is that God is the creator of both sex and pleasure and he approves of both! But sex for pleasure but without relationship is hollow and fleeting.

Thanks to all my pro-life accounts I follow who have helped me think through this. I'm sure I'm not done yet, but I've certainly thought more deeply about these issues because of you. @TruthAgape @StupidRock @to_discussion @AlbrechtEmilyA @emilyrrarick_ @DSiPaint

@LMichelleJ87 @AnikaFreeindeed And I'm really glad he had it. Otherwise, when Joseph Rosenbaum attacked him, he probably would have died.

@jen_evans @emilykmay I've learned to take the kindness away with me from those wishes and leave the rest behind.

@NohaAboelataMD Ppft, "Most vulnerable". You only care about YOUR version of the most vulnerable that lives in your head. There are other vulnerable people. And they were irrevocably harmed by the policies you whose loosening you are mocking.

@awomanpoet @Men_4_Choice It is not scientifically accurate to describe a fetus as a body part. A fetus is a scientific term describing a specific, short time period in the life cycle of a human.

I'm trying to intentionally place my kids in situations to build independence. Today, it looked like my 7 and 9 year old daughters going shopping on their own for ingredients to bake their favorite cookies. I fought the desire to hover the entire time, but we all won!

@FreeBlckThought I would assume even though men are the smaller percentage, they still make more than all the women, or close to it. This is because they would tend to choose majors which have a monetary payoff with more females choosing majors that are largely unemployable. Just a guess though.

@THR I too had a miscarriage that was removed through a D&C. It is a terribly sad situation and I'm grateful for medical advances that make it possible for me to be safe. But it wasn't an elective abortion and it's confusing to this polarized time to conflate the two.

@She_Brings_Joy I volunteer with a post abortive healing ministry. This tweet makes me angry because I think of the faces of all the women I have met who had abortions while experiencing pressure from men who were trying to avoid "unwanted fatherhood". Oh! I just keep seeing their faces. 😭

@deadtosin610 There is a very limited set of circumstances where I think this can be true. But it's not aways true. Jesus was anxious in the garden before crucifixion. Anxiety can also be an affliction that we endure, not a sin we commit.

@Men_4_Choice Stop the nonsense. It is stupid to put exclusions on which lives we can protect. You wouldn't like it if I told you you can't care about the dozens of school children who loose their lives until you care about the hundreds of thousands of babies who loose their lives, would you?

You see, even when we can't prevent all murders by making it illegal, we still make it illegal. Because killing kids is evil. And what kind of society would we be if we said, "Well, killing kids is bad but making it illegal won't stop it so let's forget it." Crazy.

But if you are going to compare this issue to abortion, please remember in your comparison to locate the issues correctly. 1 kid being killed is too much. And abortion kills them by the thousands each day. And it is LEGAL.

@KGLiebowitz I wish I could say something that would actually be meaningful. But I'm so sorry and I'm praying for you and is all I can muster. Words seem so meaningless right now.
