Christopher Hitchens is pro-life



Many atheists believe abortion is morally permissible. It's a case of atheists believing that if Christians have a moral stance, it must be wrong. I have found that most atheists that are pro-choice haven't given the issue much thought. To kill an 'unborn child' is murder (like the killing of any innocent human-life). Many pro-choice atheists believe that all intelligent atheists are pro-choice as well—as this video shows—that is far from the case. The people that support abortion believe that inconvenience is a good enough excuse for murder.

  1. I disagree, people that are atheists usually have thought about it. The pro-life stance is more of an emotional decision and derives from the religious perspective of when life begins. Most believe in a soul and this causes them to say all life is precious even embryos. However thinking of this from a more intellectual stance and you realize that what we mean is life is brain activity and early embryo's have none. Its just a dividing cell.

    A dividing cell doesn't qualify as 'life'? You clearly need to spend some time thinking about this issue. You have blindly accepted the ideas of those that dehumanize human life.
