"5 Myths about Abortion"

This week is the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Perhaps you will have opportunities to speak on behalf of the weakest, most vulnerable members of our society. Here is a helpful article over at crossway from Scott Klusendorf entitled "5 Myths about Abortion" which might help.

Here are the myths he tackles (you should read the article for the answers):

1. Myth #1: Christian pro-lifers impose religious arguments on a pluralistic society and thus violate the separation of church and state.
2. Myth #2: Men have no moral authority to speak on abortion.
3. Myth #3: The only way to end abortion is to preach the gospel because outside of Jesus, pro-life arguments make no sense to unbelievers.
4. Myth #4: Pro-life advocates must take on a broader “whole life” agenda to legitimize their efforts.
5. Myth #5: The call of the church is not social issues like abortion, but discipleship.

If anyone is willing to read his book, Stand for Life: A Students Guide for Making the Case, Saving Lives let me know and I'll get you a free copy (the catch is you have to agree to read it within the next 30 days).
