Summary
We have all heard the common excuses for not joining the pro-life movement: "I'm not a conservative." "I'm a man - I can't say anything about abortion." "Well, that's your science. I have my own." It's so tragic when people will use just about any reason to avoid becoming sold-out, unapologetic advocates for life. Today, let's tackle these excuses and misunderstandings and discuss ways that we can respond with love and facts!

| 0:00.0 | Hey, pro-life, Jen, it's Kristen Hawkins. |
| 0:10.3 | Welcome to this How to Win the Debate episode on the Explicitly Pro-Life podcast. |
| 0:16.2 | Okay, so today I'm going to do something a little different. |
| 0:20.5 | I'm going to rapid fire some of the like common phrases we hear as excuses about why people don't get involved in the pro-life movement or just things that we hear about why people aren't pro-life and do some responses to them. |
| 0:35.3 | So hope this helps you in your conversation. |
| 0:38.3 | So here we go. |
| 0:39.3 | I'm not a conservative. |
| 0:42.3 | Okay, well I didn't say you had to be a conservative to be pro-life. |

| 1:27.2 | the tragedies of modern-day politicsies of modern day politics is that the |
| 1:30.7 | Democratic platform has moved from safe, legal, and rare, that phrase that Bill Clinton coined in the |
| 1:37.7 | 90s to convince my grandparents to vote for them to now birthday abortions are fine. And maybe even inf Fancy's, you know, a few hours after birth |
| 1:46.3 | is fine too. They've also made it exceedingly clear that if you are pro-life, if you're |
| 1:52.1 | anti-abortion in any way, you are not welcome in their party, which eliminates, quite frankly, |
| 1:57.6 | the voices of thousands as over a third of registered Democrats are pro-life voters. |
