It's part 7 of the continuing series responding to Kenna's pro-choice video: "Pro-Life Lies." The video lists 55 "pro-life lies" she's heard, and in this series, we're responding to them all! (And pro-lifers are often surprised by our stance on some of these...) In this episode, we respond to the statements: "The heart beats, therefore it is wrong to kill it." "Fetuses can think." "Abortion causes breast cancer." "People who can't afford children shouldn't have sex."

It's our first in a series of "pro-life celebrity interviews!" Scott Klusendorf was kind enough to come on the show for 2 episodes. In part 1, he talks about his book, what it takes to be a pro-life pastor and which pro-life strategy is better: incrementalism, or absolutism?

The Life Report team responds to the following questions: 1. "Can you talk about overpopulation and how it related to life issues?" 2. "Can you help me prepare for a pro-life speech contest?" 3."Could you talk about organizations that support Planned Parenthood?"

It's our 50th episode, and one of our most solid episodes yet! We start by reading some excerpts from Kenna's reaction to our series based on her pro-choice video entitled "Pro-Life Lies." This ends with Josh getting on his soapbox in an impromptu rant about mean pro-lifers making comments on YouTube. You won't want to miss it. After the break Josh, Liz and Jon discuss the whole "Planned Parenthood is racist" argument a little more, and then talk about Red Envelope Day. Is it a good thing, or a bad thing? The debate happens right here.

Josh, Liz and Jon discuss President Obama's recent Executive Order rescinding President Bush's EO on using tax dollars to kill embryos. They then talk about Josh's recent article, "9 Things the Media Messed Up About the Obama Stem Cell Story," which went viral overnight, being talked about by LifeNews.com, NewsBusters.org, TownHall.com, Stand to Reason and more!

Clovis student Josh Yee joins Josh, Liz and Carrie to discuss common pro-choice arguments. Josh Yee gets into abortion discussions on a daily basis, and he brought five arguments he hears that he has a hard time responding to. The Life Report team goes through the arguments one by one giving practical talking points that YOU can use to respond to these arguments. Pro-Choice Arguments: 1. "It’s the woman's body, she should be able to do what she wants with it." 2. "What about the dangers of having a baby? A mother should be able to avoid these dangers by getting an abortion." 3. "A baby is not a baby until it’s born, so abortions are ok because it is not a human yet." 4. "A baby is a problem that can be solved by getting an abortion." 5. "If a mother is not ready to take care of a baby, she can have an abortion to rid herself of the responsibility."

Spoiler alert: We actually disagree with many of the "pro-life" statements in this video, so we're not going to pull any punches. This show is about raising the bar on our critical thinking skills, and that means taking a honest look at arguments from both sides of the abortion issue. In this episode, we respond to the "pro-life" statements: - "Abortion is malicious." - "Abortionists deserve to die." - "Partial-birth abortion is cruel." - "Planned Parenthood is racist."

In this episode, Josh, Liz and Jon respond to pro-lifers that believe that President Obama's policies will reduce abortion rates more than McCain's would have. You can also check out all the sources for the arguments we make, mainly quoting from the side of the abortion advocates!

We finally get to the emails Carrie has received recently that we didn't have time to get to on last week's show. Listener Questions: - "Could you try and not make Right to Life about Christianity?" - "Let's say there is a woman that has some kind of condition where it is 100% impossible for her to carry a pregnancy more than 4 months. If pro-lifers could pass all the pro life legislation they wanted to, would this woman be guilty of some kind of murder if she continually and purposefully refused to use birth control knowing that any unborn baby would simply die in a maximum of 4 months?"
