Pros And Cons Of Pro Life

Improved Essays
Throughout the time that I have been alive, the debate between pro life and pro choice has always been a big one. Usually, people with strong biblical beliefs side with pro life because they look at it as if you are killing a human and a chance at life given from God. Someone with very strong biblical beliefs is former Heisman Trophy winner, Tim Tebow. Tim Tebow led the Florida Gators to two National Championships, was a 3x All American, was selected in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft, and lastly, he always made sure his christian beliefs came through in everything he did. Whether that meant writing biblical phrases on his eye black, ending every one of his speeches with God Bless, and lastly, starring in controversial commercials defending pro life. In the 2010 Super Bowl, there was a Tim Tebow pro life ad that struck some people as taking things too far. Part of the reason this commercial was so controversial was because the message of the commercial got confused with the actual purpose of it. The …show more content…
pro choice debates there have been many different pros and cons to each side. Some would argue that a huge side of pro life would be having faith that God will do what is right. God is good and everything happens for a reason. The other side of the argument would be to say that although everything happen for a reason, part of life is having a choice and being able to choose the path that you follow. Someone that thinks like this would side with pro choice because they would believe that the person who is pregnant should have a choice as to if she wants to have a baby at that time. Throughout the longer and shorter version of the Tim Tebow commercial, it is clear that the parents side with pro life. Overall, most would say they did an okay job of portraying their message because instead of defending their beliefs and talking about all the benefits of pro life, they chose to point out all the downsides of pro

    Although McLachlan may be an influential feature to some, her sole support of the company is not what inspires an audience to donate to the cause.

    She supports this by pointing out the US Department of Health and Human Services published an advertisement discussing condom use and abstinence but the National Conference of Catholic Bishops stated the ads “promote promiscuity”. Furthermore, the well-known television network ABC, refused to air the commercial during its peak family viewing times. Quindlen believes that these commercials would jump start the conversation needed between the kids and the parents if they were played during the prime time, when families are gathered together watching the television. Putting the pieces together, she claims you cannot be against the commercials, but at the same time promote talking to our children about sex. The activists and the Conference she believes are making the start of that conversation much harder, and therefore are hypocritical.…

    In the Chipotle super bowl ad, there is a wave of depressing feelings being portrayed as the ad shows a farmer, who has just started a family, and seems like a nice guy that soon turns into a farmer that begins caging up all of these farm animals and injecting chemicals and other inhumane things into them. Luckily, the farmer comes to a realization towards the end as to what he has done and is able to 'save' the farm animals by undoing all the horrible things he began doing in the beginning. I believe the purpose of this ad is to get its audience to eat at Chipotle or to make their audience remember Chipotle so that when they are hungry, Chipotle is one of the first places they think of. This ads audience is families and people who are opposed…

    The viewpoints held by persuasive writers are often different from each other’s, sometimes even polar opposites, but the one thing all persuasive writing has in common is the use of rhetorical appeals. Ethos, logos, and pathos help authors convince readers of a point using credibility to impress the reader, reason and logic, and emotion to appeal to the reader’s sympathy. However, overuse of certain appeals can lead to an unreliable argument. Logos is the most reliable, as logos depends on facts, but information may still be twisted. Ethos deals with the credibility of the author, publisher, or a source from the writing, but sometimes credentials can blind readers; just because someone is an expert in a subject does not mean he or she is infallible.…

    That’s why, for me, the most “pro-life” politician in America is New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. While he supports a woman’s right to choose, he has also used his position to promote a whole set of policies that enhance everyone’s quality of life — from his ban on smoking in bars and city parks to reduce cancer, to his ban on the sale in New York City of giant sugary drinks to combat obesity and diabetes, to his requirement for posting calorie counts on menus in chain restaurants, to his push to reinstate the expired federal ban on assault weapons and other forms of common-sense gun control, to his support for early childhood education, to his support for mitigating disruptive climate change.” and this is really him just sharing his opinion on the…

    Abortion has been a great topic of debate for many years, both in terms of law/rights and in morality/religion. The constant debate has split people into two sides: Pro-Choice and Pro-Life. Those who are Pro-Choice believe that women have a right to decide the fate of their body, health, and life. They personally may not get an abortion, but they feel that it is still the right of the mother to choose. Abortion prevents unsafe pregnancies, protects women 's right to choose, liberates women from patriarchal control over women 's sexual and reproductive lives, and allows the mother to choose whether, when, and how often to have a child.…
