Colossians 1:16:
15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

Matthew 5:
- 1Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2and he began to teach them saying:
3"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
7Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
9Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
10Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
1 Thessalonians 5:
- 10See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.

Doesn't it say that:
"Every human being has the inherent right to life. This right shall be protected by law. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his life." (In 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly declared in article three)
You can be very liberal and pro-life when you value this of the most importants human rights.
- Yes, I oppose capital punishment, because everyone has the right to life.
- Yes, I oppose euthanasia, because everyone has the right to life.
- Yes, I oppose abortion, because everyone has the right to life.
Many "liberals" also make wrong claims, saying that pro-life activists simply intended to deprive women from their rights. However this contradicts with two facts:
- That there are also many women in the western world who view abortion as manslaughter. Are they fighting against their own rights?
- That 50% of the human beings are female.
- Therefore pro-life activists protect the a female's most basic right to life.
I'm not a fan of the comparison to one of the most horrible crimes of humankind, but I believe that it is very similar in some basic ideologies that tried to "justify" the horrible killing. And it has the same characteristics of this unbelievable period of time in Nazi Germany:
- It is accepted by the majority. People deny their human dignity
- It is silent killing with Millions of victims
- The right to choose = Artificial selection (Think about it)
