Princeton Professor of Jurisprudence Robert P. George offered words of wisdom worthy of Valentine's Day notation in his closing remarks to some 100 pro-lifers on campus February 5.
(Please see my February 7th post for more details on the meeting.)
Pro-lifers often assume that "if we think better [and] make better arguments," then we will win the abortion battles, said George. "But love wins" because "love conquers death."
"We must love the other side, [love] women faced with choice, [love] post-abortive women, even [love] abortionists," the unapologetically pro-life professor stated.
In light of responses that I've received to my February 12th post, "Deliverate Pro-Life Divisiveness is Self-Defeating," (posted here on my website and here on ProLifeBlogs) allow me to add another group in need of shared love to George's list. All-or-none and incrementalist anti-abortion advocates must love one another, despite their different approaches to winning right to life wars.
For as the wise Ivy League advocate for the voiceless concluded, "By loving, we will win."
Happy Valentine's Day!
oooo and xxxx
