A Single Video Changed His Mind On Abortion

"I didn't realize it was like that. I thought that it was just an egg. Now that I've seen this, I'm against abortion. It's changed my mind."
Many people who support abortion as "a woman's reproductive right" have no idea what abortion actually does. But once they see the brutal reality, their minds change.

I wish they would show these videos as part of every presidential debate and even down to city council and school board. What people don't get is that our body is a temporary shell or suit, so to speak. But in reality we are a spiritual being, made in God's likeness and image. That our soul exists complete at conception. Which means we our conscious, self aware, thinking, have emotions, and feel love, and know if our parents love or hate us. Free will. Intelligence. Jesus is there and introduces Himself. We know to love, honor, and obey our parents and Jesus. But we also have the sin nature, which tells us sin is enjoyable and that we should be in charge of our lives. We understand if we are a boy or a girl and what that means. We also understand that about our parents. And we know we are in our mom. That's what everyone knows 5 minutes in from conception. But the vast majority of us listen to the sin nature and elevate ourselves above God. And sin darkens us in the womb. And so we forget this knowledge of Jesus. Thankfully Jesus doesn't give up on us.

The only person who has a right to make any decisions about their body is the person whose body is in question, for all medical procedures, not just pregnancy and abortion. It's especially ludicrous that most of those making laws about what women can and can't do with their bodies are men who very clearly haven't a clue about how the female reproductive system works. A better route would be to provide proper, comprehensive sex ed in schools to teach ALL students how both male and female reproductive systems work, the consequences of unprotected sex and the many options for contraception. We also need to recognize, as a society, that boys and men are 50% responsible for every pregnancy, and if they want a say, they should be ready to shoulder the responsibility for every child carried to term.

I went to a hospital the same day I found out so they could remove my fallopian tube to save my life because it could have burst and I would die, but it also indirectly ended my baby's life which was sad for me but because I could've died and baby wouldn't be able to grow in the fallopian tube, it is morally acceptable (They wouldn't have been able to move the baby to my uterus either because he/she was so fragile and small it wouldn't have worked, I asked the doctor).

And so there are these two things going on. I think what happens is that when you learn embryology, there is no emotion attached to it. The pro abortion side uses emotion as propaganda basically. They always use the outlier situations and circumstances in order to convince people of their position. It's completely emotional and there are no facts or evidence involved.

Planned Parenthood has overtaken sex education in the US. Their agenda begins with pre-schoolers and continues through every grade, so they can not only teach children that the pre-born are not human, but they are actually parasites, harmful to the life and health of the mother. Further, they begin to push the trans agenda in the early elementary grades. Government schools are no longer centers for education, rather they resemble 1930's tactics used by the German government, by plaguing the education system with ***i propaganda and creating organizations like the *****r Youth. They indoctrinated the younger generations with propaganda. Look up Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov. He explained 40 years ago what they planned for the US, and it has come to pass.

Children have been so dehumanized that they are labeled as parasites. It is entirely reasonable to disagree with abortion after watching something so tragic. And the "how abortion works" videos are fairly straightforward, too. If you have seen the series, you would know that there is no manipulation of emotions. A former abortion practitioner simply explains how the abortion pill and procedures kill the baby.
