What does it mean to be pro-life?

To be pro-life is not having a certain opinion. Pro-life is anything but an "opinion". Pro-life is not a stance on a particular issue or set of issues, nor is it a philosophy. Pro-life is nothing less than a spirituality.

To truly be pro life, one must respect the dignity and sanctity of life, all life, starting with their own. When trying to define pro-life, most people stand on the political or the social and don't take it much deeper than that. This is the cause of the shallow understanding of what they're doing and who they are.

To understand what pro-life "means" you need stop and just look around. Every single atom of every molecule making up you and the world around you- it's all in place at the right time, in the right order, and in the right combination, for that very moment. There is an innate beauty and sacredness that nothing we as humans can ever think of or do to match it. Whether or not you believe in God, and no matter what direction your life is taking, every person has innate dignity in every moment.

To be pro-life is to recognize that and embrace it with love.
