Pro-life is really pro-death

[druggedonsurvival]

We're all familiar with how irritating conservative "pro-lifers" claim to value life, but one thing they do not consider is that every birth is a death sentence. You are killing every person you bring into this world some 80 years or less from the moment they come out. If these people believe in an afterlife, they should really be pro-abortion. After all, if they believe unborn fetuses have souls, they must go to heaven since they have not committed any sins. Why would they want to risk that person growing up and becoming a sinner, thus sending them to hell? Do they want more souls to be tortured for eternity? The idea of burning in hell forever for mowing the lawn on a Sunday or whatever is fucked up anyway, one life is torture enough.

Prolifers are evil. It's a common fact.

This is true because all life leads to death. Every living thing will eventually die and decay, that's just how it is

*Random side note* Theoretically immortality is possible but I get what you're saying.

I think religious people in particular often seen life as a test- a series of trials to obey God. I don't think they approve of skipping to the end- unless God takes that person out naturally. Then, maybe they will accept that it was God's will. But no- I imagine they perceive any destruction of life- abortion or suicide as murder.

What if God doesn't exist? What will they do once his existence is disproven?

For Christians, every human being is born a sinner. They say that we inherited Eva's guilt because she ate the apple and therefore started to understand what is good and bad (before that
Adam and Eva were shameless and innocent).

In Catholicism and some christian sects they believe in original sin, others don't.

Can you disprove something to a person who has 'faith'? They will simply say that that information was put here by the devil or something- to lead us astray. The whole point of faith is- it doesn't require proof I guess. People with the strongest faiths may never be willing to relinquish them.

Plus, there's the whole difficulty of- how do you prove something doesn't exist when, you don't have the tools to look everywhere? Because we don't know all the facts and, possibly never will, it leaves gaping holes that things like religion have filled for millennia.

If you mean after death though- if in fact ther is nothing. Then, they'll do what the rest of us will do... nothing!

I haven't heard that phrase. Accurate though.

The funny thing is that these people are often conservatives who wink at the death penalty.
