Pro-lifers have long known that abortion supporters engineer language to justify abortion.
After all, it's much easier to sell "reproductive justice" than to call abortion what it is: barbaric violence against a defenseless child.
But many pro-lifers unintentionally contribute to the hijacking of the conversation through their own word choices.
We break down the ways pro-lifers can help build a culture that respects life simply by taking a little extra care in the way we speak on this two-part series of The 40 Days for Life Podcast:
In these episodes, we cover:
- Common phrases pro-lifers use that dehumanize unborn children;
- Life-affirming ways to discuss topics like disability and adoption;
- Which language choices really matter--and which are a waste of time?
- The temptation to go too far and become a pro-life version of "woke."
