Name given to citizens who believe that abortion and/or the dealth penalty is wrong. Many believe that pro-life only refers to abortion.
Christians usually spend too much time focusing on abortion and not enough on the Death Penalty. Usually to present this they carry around picture of mutilated babies, many of which are fake.
Although some may disagree with their beliefs, they should not dehumanize them. They have the right to believe what they please. They should also do this to pro-choicers.

1. I am pro-life, I believe that a fetus is actually a human life, with a soul, and every fetus has the right to life.
2. I am pro-choice, the opposite of pro-life, I believe that the fetus is just a mass of human tissue. I believe that a woman should decide whether she wants to continue with her pregnancy.

An American political stance characterized by the belief that abortions constitute murder. Currently, America has legal abortions available to those who want and can afford them. Persons of the pro-life platform wish for abortion to be illegal. Compare to pro-choice
President Bush is pro-life.

Someone who believes that ALL life is sacred not just the life of an unborn human being. True pro-lifers do not support capital punishment.
John is a true pro-lifer, he believes that all life is sacred and should not be killed for convenience(98% of abortions are for convenience,not medical or rape) or to prove that killing is wrong.

The belief that all life is sacred and deserves to be protected. One who is truly pro-life will oppose capital punishment, war, poverty, and all forms of physical or mental torture. Such a person will see abortion as a tragedy for all involved, not a "reproductive right" to be celebrated - and will work to end abortion, not by force or intimidation, but by working to change the social and economic conditions that lead people to choose abortion.
i hate it when people think that because i identify as pro-life, i would support such atrocities as capital punishment, pre-emptive war, or violence against women.

In relation to abortion, one who feels that it is wrong to intentionally terminate a pregnancy. Pro-choice individuals tend to call pro-life individuals anti-choice, though this is not necessarily the case. Pro-life individuals generally, but not always, believe that "elective abortions," or abortions for the purpose of birth control (as opposed to abortions in cases of rape, incest, or medical necessity) should be illegal.
While abortion is despicable and should not be considered an option, it is far better to convince one to choose life than to force one to choose life through lack of options. She who chooses life because she cannot obtain an abortion, has not reached the conclusion that abortion is evil; she who has the option of murdering her own child, but chooses life, has made a conscious decision to reject evil.

one who believes in the protection of life once it has been created, but specifically unborn life.
in regard to abortion, (s)he believes that the "right to choose" lies in the choice to have sex, and if human life is created (at CONCEPTION), the choice is no longer the woman's. not necessarily an activist, but often unafraid to defend his/her position and attempt to persuade others that abortion is a horrific, murderous act.

the pro-lifers i know are not fundamentalists, but do have a religious- or moral-based concern for everyone's the right to life

1. Someone who is against abortion. While most merely protest and express their outrage for it, few others go hypocrite and kill abortion clinic doctors. Opposite of pro-death, indeed!
2. Often called Anti-choice.
2. Often called Anti-choice.
The pro-life woman ranted and raved that killing is wrong, and to prove her point, she shot a doctor dead because he performed an abortion. In other words, she felt that a fetus was more important than a living, breathing human being.
