The ground rules, part 1 : can you name my claim? -- The ground rules, part 2 : is moral neutrality possible? -- Foundations : does God matter? (or, am I just matter?) -- Dead silence : does the Bible justify abortion? -- Part Three. Pro-life Christians answer objections persuasively. From debate to dialogue : asking the right questions -- The coathanger objection : women will die from back-alley abortions -- The tolerance objection : you shouldn't force your views on others -- The single issue objection : pro-lifers should broaden their focus -- The hard cases objection : rape justifies abortion -- The I don't like you objection : men can't get pregnant and other personal attacks -- The bodily autonomy objection : it's my body, I'll decide -- Part Four.
