Person 1: What does “pro-life” mean? Person 2 (our hero): It means I think we all deserve basic human rights even before we’re born. I oppose abortion; I think we should use nonviolent means to support pregnant women.

Person 1 (our hero): I hope you never have an unplanned pregnancy, but in case you do or one of your friends does, please know that I’ll be here with love and support. I’m ready to help you through a pregnancy. Person 2: [says nothing]

Person 1: 1 in 3 women gets an abortion. Person 2 (our hero): I agree that abortion is common. I think women getting abortions often have good intentions. But sometimes a lot of well-meaning people choose to do something wrong.

Person 1: There are already too many kids in the foster system. Do you really want to add more? Person 2 (our hero): I’m concerned about those kids too, but there is actually no shortage of good prospective parents waiting to adopt newborns.
