If You Are Truly Pro-life You Should Be Against Abortion, War, Euthanasia, And The Death Penalty, Putting Animals To Sleep, Crushing Bugs, And Recreational Hunting, Not Just Abortion.
So there! Ha!

Yes! I agree completely. If they truly think life is so precious (Even with the right circumstances) they should really think that for all species.

I do not like the term pro-life, and I do not fall under this title but I would think that if you are prolife on the issue of abortions you should be consistent with your stance on all the subjects Mark mentioned and those that Ozzieman has listed.

And also against putting stray animals to sleep, crushing insects, and recreational hunting.

"Pro Life" is just a name for a movement, not a personal philosophy. It just sounds better than "Anti-Abortion" or "Anti-Choice."

In the same way, "Pro-Choice" sounds better than "Pro-Abortion" or "Anti-Baby."

There is a big difference between the death penalty and abortion. Abortion is murder, while the death penalty is killing. When properly interpreted, the Commandment "Thou shalt not kill" , is actually interpreted "Thou shalt not murder. And as for the other, all must be dealt with on an individual basis, The term "Pro Life" is only linked to abortion, not to anything else, just as the term"Pro Choice" is linked to abortion and nothing else.

 you are right the Commandment is interpreted. By you, to suit your beliefs.

Just for the record I am in favour of the death penalty in a few instances but I at least admit that it is my thoughts and not use religion.

They are not the same. I am pro-life but not against the death penalty. I squash bugs on a regular basis and I believe in a just war. I also believe in putting a person or animal out of its medical misery instead of allowing it to suffer. Fetus' do not deserve death, criminals deserve it. Criminals are accountable - developing babies are not accountable for many many years to come.

 Then you're not pro-life, you're anti-abortion. And you seem to be totally OK with killing.

I think if you are pro life you should be against the death penalty but that is about it.

The same kids pro-lifers don't want you to abort are the same kids who will grow up and the pro-lifers will be wanting their heads in the electric chair.

I don't like blanket platforms. You can greatly value life and still make some hard decisions on it. Each according to the situation. However, the decision should not be made easily or lightly.

 I am uncomfortable with the euthanasia part... but it's consistent with the premise.

In my opinion, sometimes it's immoral NOT to commit euthanasia.
