Francis Schaeffer: Abominable abortion law
“Certainly every Christian ought to be praying and working to nullify the abominable abortion law.

John Piper: Subtle infanticide
‘One accurate way to describe abortion is subtle infanticide. That is: child-killing done in a way that the people don’t recognize it as child-killing. That reality is why the word abortion exists.

“To the extent that the method of estimating future cash flow requires projections, I would say that projections, while they’re logically required by the circumstances, on average, do more harm than good in America.

John Paul II: Right to life

Germaine Greer: Contraception is abortion
“These days contraception is abortion, because the third generation pills cannot be shown to prevent sperm fertilizing an ovum… Intra-uterine devices, medicated or not, work by creating inflammation of the uterus, often accompanied by infection; women who accepted them as contraceptive devices were actually being equipped with a do-it-yourself abortionist’s tool. The outcome was frequent…

Harrison Hickman: Pictures of developing fetus
“Probably nothing has been as damaging to our cause as the advances in technology which have allowed pictures of the developing fetus, because people now talk about the fetus in much different terms than they did 15 years ago.

“Cowardice asks the question, ‘is it safe?’; expediency asks the question, ‘is it politic?’; vanity asks the question, ‘is it popular?’; but conscience asks the question, ‘is it right?’; and there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but because conscience tells one it is…
