Life Begins Ex Nihilo?

I do my best to stay out of pro life and pro abortion issues as best I can. If you're like me, you were told as a teenager to never discuss politics and religion at the dinner table, this issue is another one that you should never discuss, unless you are among like minded people. However, listening to my local radio station this morning (KGMI) on the Joe and Patti Show, I was both laughing and cursing at progressive Joe Teehan's blatant ignorance and, in my opinion, misinformation (unintentional of course).

Plant life, as well as animal and human life cannot begin without conception, this is a biological absolute and to say otherwise would mean that you would have to believe that all life begins ex nihilo (from nothing).

Another thing that I find amusing is that pro abortion advocates are desperately trying to change that moniker to "pro choice", which isn't doing well either. If they are "pro choice" then why all of the whining if someone chooses life? Take the "pro choice" group's umbrage at ABC airing a commercial of Tim Tebow. If they are "pro choice" and advertising a commercial is part of the free market and right to free speech, then one would think that there wouldn't be an issue.

Not so. The blatant hypocrisy that permeates from "pro choice" advocates reminds me of walking through a landfill in 100 degree temperatures; it's okay if "pro choice" advocates air commercials, but not if you are a pro life advocate.

Joe, in his infinite wisdom, is all for universal, government run health care, but, doesn't want the government involved with tax payer funded abortion. In other words, on this occasion the government needs to stay out of a woman's reproductive rights. I ask you, isn't abortion a health care issue? It's the typical progressive pick and choose hypocrisy.

Then there is Planned Parenthood, an abortion organization created by Margaret Sanger. If you don't know who this vile, racist person is, then you would do well to look up her name with the terms, eugenics, racism and other not so kind adjectives. In his diaries, Joseph Goebells stated that the Nazi Party got the idea of eugenics from the American progressive movement. Margaret Sanger was a progressive through and through.

Should there be exceptions? I don't see an issue with it if a woman becomes pregnant from being raped, incest or if the mother's life is at risk.

Lastly, I would like to point out that Norma McCorvey who was the plaintiff in Roe v. Wade filed a petition to have legalized abortion overturned. Yet, "pro choice" advocates seem to ignore it or gloss over it. Why? She was once the idol of reproductive rights, now that she has changed her views, she isn't even given a mention.
