Understanding the humanity of the unborn child from conception is crucial. Advances in fetology have shown the genetic separation and distinct human nature of the unborn. Science and technology support the logical and humane stance that a human being and person are one. It's not about religion but recognizing the inherent value of life. Abortion is at the core of civil rights issues, as Martin Luther King Jr. rightly noted injustice anywhere threatens justice everywhere. Killing the innocent contradicts the freedom and rights that define the United States. Protect life, defend the rights of the unborn.

By classic dictionary definition, a human being and a person are the same thing • based on science, technology, and is the only logical and humane stance
You don’t have to be a member of a particular religion to know it’s wrong to kill innocent human beings
You cannot reject the inherent value of human life and simultaneously affirm the values of freedom and human rights that distinguish the United States of America.
