0:00 / 43m 25s
Abortion is murder, and it's time we face that truth head-on. In this episode, we discuss the March for Life 2019, the staggering statistics surrounding abortion, and the importance of standing firm in our pro-life beliefs. We must educate ourselves and others, and fight against the lies perpetuated by the pro-choice movement.

0:00 this is on daunted life a man's podcast. I'm your host Kyle Thompson. Let's get into
0:15 it. Guys, I've got some breaking news for you. Abortion is still murder. I know it's
0:21 that doesn't seem like that should be breaking news, but to some people it feel like in this
0:25 day and age, I have to constantly remind people that that abortion is ending a life and is ending
0:30 an innocent life and it is murder. So around this time of the year, every time we're going to come
0:35 around to this time of the year, we are going to do a podcast about abortion. So last year,
0:39 right after the march for life, episode six of this podcast, we did an entire episode on abortion,
0:44 and we went into a lot, a lot of detail. Okay, we went into the medical types of abortions. We went
0:51 into the arguments that people make for abortion and how stupid they are. We got into the history of
0:55 Roe v. Wade, a lot of different things. So I would just encourage all of you. If you're coming into
1:00 this podcast late, I know a lot of you guys have found this podcast in the new year. Go back and
1:04 listen to episode six of this podcast is just titled abortion. So everywhere where you're listening
1:09 to it right now, whether it's on SoundCloud, Google Play, Apple podcasts or anywhere, go back and
1:14 listen to that podcast. You may even go ahead and listen to it before you listen to this one,
1:17 because it does set the stage instead of prime before that. But this is an episode that we're
1:22 recording after January 18 of 2019, where we had the 46th annual march for life in Washington DC.
1:30 And so this has been a march that has happened, been happening since Roe v. Wade, because again,
1:34 the people that decided Roe v. Wade thought that, you know, the jurisprudence was so airtight,
1:39 that this was just going to be something that the American people were just going to accept,
1:42 and we were going to move on and not fight it. And we have been literally fighting it ever since.
1:47 So it's estimated that about 100,000 people showed up in Washington, DC, to talk about abortion,
1:53 to march through the streets of Washington, DC, and put this on people's minds as they do
1:59 every year and as we do in our everyday lives. But this year, the thing that was a little bit
2:03 different about the theme was that science is on our side. Because here's the nefarious little
2:10 thing that most people think, especially people that are on the secular left or people that are
2:13 on the pro choice side of things, they think this is just a religious issue. And if you think abortion
2:19 is just a religious issue, and you think that, you know, guys like me, Christians, we just worship
2:24 at the altar of some spaghetti monster in the sky, that that's not that big a deal. We can easily
2:29 dispel these people that still are holding on to their antiquated thinking and their guns and
2:34 their MAGA hats or whatever the thing is, whatever they, they think of people that they disagree with.
2:38 But in the, if it stays in the religious realm, these people feel like they have the upper hand.
2:43 Because those are the people that are using, you know, being rational. They're, they're using,
2:48 they're using reason. They're using science. They're using all these things. But the issue is,
2:54 is with abortion, science is not on your side. If you believe that you can kill the human that's
2:59 growing inside the womb of a woman, science is not on your side. Because you get into debates with
3:05 people about, oh, that's not, that's not a human life in there. But again, not, not to go too far
3:10 into some of the stuff we talked about in episode number six. But it's the only place in the world
3:14 when the sperm meets the egg where new DNA sprouts out of nowhere. It is completely separate from mom
3:20 completely separate from dad. Because the sperm is a gamete and the egg is a gamete. And on their
3:27 own, they don't constitute life. They have elements of life, but they don't constitute life. But when
3:32 the sperm enters the gamete, it forms a zygote. And that zygote has a completely different molecular
3:39 structure and cellular structure than the individual gametes, because they've combined. Scientists have
3:44 a word for that. It's called life. I mean, literally, if scientists found, you know, something that,
3:50 you know, even a one cell organism on Jupiter, and they could surmise that it had the same
3:56 the types of things that a sperm and a egg meeting together have, they would literally be tripping
4:02 over themselves to figure out who would be the first one to call it life. But all of a sudden,
4:07 because it's inside of a woman and she doesn't want it, then it's not a life. But anyway, I'll
4:11 digress just a little bit here. So the theme for this March was really sciences on our side. We have
4:16 it in our on our side of the issue. So you can't have it. But as per usual, the mainstream television
4:23 media. So mainly ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, they didn't cover the March for life, because it doesn't
4:31 really fit their narrative. So they don't show sizes of the crowds, they don't show the March,
4:36 they might just mention it in passing. But what all of these entities did end up covering
4:41 was the much, much smaller women's March rally that happened the day after. So if you're very
4:47 familiar with the women's March, it's a feminist movement, but it also has tremendous strings
4:52 and strains of anti semitism. And just basically, it's incredibly far left super, super radical
4:59 far left thought. And these individuals basically try to spout all that nonsense at a basically
5:05 counter rally. But this rally, they had a permit where they applied for about 10,000 people. And
5:11 I don't think anywhere near that many people showed up. So not to say if women wanted to get
5:15 together and march for the rights that that would be a bad thing. I certainly wouldn't say that
5:19 that would be the case that we should do. But they were they were specifically marching to be in
5:25 contrast to the March for life, which as we know, most of the people in the women's March side
5:30 believe that we should be able to kill babies at all times within the womb, even up to the time of
5:33 birth. So the cool thing about this year is just like we've seen in previous years, President Trump
5:40 actually made it a point to address this crowd. And again, before Trump was a red candidate,
5:46 he was a pro choice guy, right? But whenever he decided he wanted to be more on the Republican
5:51 side of the issue, he became a pro life person. And we don't know if he literally had a change
5:56 of heart where we're hoping that he did. But he has been one of more outspoken true pro choice
6:04 or sorry, excuse me, pro life candidates and pro life presidents that we've had in a very long
6:09 time. I can't really think of another president that was this outspoken. We've had presidents that
6:14 would be considered more conservative, but not this outspoken about it. So the cool thing that
6:19 he did is when he addressed the crowd, he promised that he would veto any and all new pro abortion
6:24 bills that came to his desk. And so specifically the quote that he used here, I'll just go ahead
6:29 and read it. Today, I've signed a letter to Congress to make clear that if they send any
6:33 legislation to my desk that weakens the protection of human life, I will issue a veto. And we have
6:39 the support to uphold those vetoes. We know that every life has meaning, and that every life is
6:44 worth protecting. As president, I will always defend the first right and our declaration of
6:49 independence, the right to life. So this is something that's really, really important. I'm
6:53 really glad that he did that. Vice president Mike Pence actually made a live appearance kind
6:57 of a surprise appearance in front of the crowd. So it is with all the problems that the Trump
7:01 administration has, and you could fill up a laundry list full of them, regardless of if you agree
7:06 with the policy or not. This is one area that they've kind of stood pat and the only thing I
7:11 would say that they've done that was a little bit disappointing in terms of the pro life side of
7:15 the equation was putting a justice on the Supreme Court. That wasn't very, very ardently pro life.
7:22 And I'm talking about justice Brett Brett Kavanaugh. So Kavanaugh personally is very pro life because
7:28 he's a Catholic and he's a devout Catholic and all those different things. But his jurisprudence has
7:33 proved that he doesn't necessarily want to be the person that is going to cast the vote to
7:39 overturn Roe v. Wade. I know that may seem like a little bit of a larger thing for me to claim,
7:44 especially since I don't know the man and I don't know his heart. But I wish that the Trump
7:48 administration, when they had another chance at the Supreme Court, I wish that they would have,
7:52 you know, really, really settled on somebody that was incredibly and extremely pro life.
7:56 The key, the keynote address that was delivered for this year's March for Life was delivered by
8:01 Ben Shapiro. So you know, Ben Shapiro obviously is a conservative commentator. We really enjoy
8:06 his content from the Daily Wire and the things that he does via his podcast. And he takes a page
8:10 kind of out of our book from episode six of his podcast. And he actually during his keynote,
8:15 looks at 10 arguments for abortion, like why and you know, what people claim, why we should be able
8:20 to have abortions and how to defeat them. Because that's the important thing. It is nice to point
8:25 out things about different people's points of view. But at the end of the day, we've got to make
8:30 sure that those are points of view that we can defeat that when people are looking for a reason
8:35 to get at us, we can we can very logically and using reason and evidence and things like that,
8:42 that we can have a basis for how we can turn those arguments back. And Ben Shapiro did a pretty good
8:47 job of that in that podcast by laying them out. And also are in a speech rather, and then also we
8:52 did that in one of our podcasts as well. So guys, if you remember back to the episode six of this
8:58 podcast, one of the things I did is I encourage all of you to stay up on the issues that have
9:02 been happening with abortion. And I know that there's not a whole lot of sites that you may know of,
9:06 I'm going to bring some to your attention by the end of this podcast. But what I wanted to do is I
9:10 wanted to kind of go through some of the big news updates since last year, since episode six of this
9:16 podcast or since the last March for life in 2018. What are some of the big things that have been
9:20 happening in the world of abortion? Okay, and in the world of murdering babies in the womb. So
9:26 I'm gonna take you through several of these and we're gonna start out with one of the most startling
9:30 things that we saw is that abortion is the leading cause of death in the world. At least it was in
9:36 2018. And we can surmise that it has been for years and years prior to that. This number that
9:41 I'm about to say is just it's astonishing of how many people were killed in 2018 via abortion.
9:48 42 million people worldwide were killed using abortion. Think about that. And this is according
9:58 to life news and the data was compiled by worldometers. But let's just look at some of the other
10:03 causes of death that most of us maybe give money to and we support and we've had family members or
10:08 ourselves have been affected. So these numbers, this number 42 million absolutely smoked all these
10:14 other things. So last year worldwide, cancer claimed the lives of 8.2 million people. Smoking
10:20 and smoking related diseases claimed the lives of 5 million people. HIV AIDS claimed the lives of
10:26 1.7 million people. And then it just keeps going down and down and down after that with, you know,
10:30 traffic accidents and suicides and overdoses and all those other things, etc. But just think about
10:35 that. Take all of those things combined and you're still not even close. Maybe you're not even close
10:40 to halfway to the 42 million number. That's crazy. And it may even get a little bit worse. I don't
10:48 know if this number is going to hit you as hard as maybe it did me. But about a fourth of all
10:53 pregnancies in the world last year were aborted. About a fourth of the children that were in the
11:01 wombs of these women were murdered. They were ripped to pieces or poisoned to death or starved
11:06 to death in their mother's wombs. Let that sink in, guys, a fourth one out of every fourth.
11:14 That is insane. The amount of human beings that have been killed because of this. Now,
11:20 now here's the thing. Just under a million abortions a year take place in the United States. And this
11:25 has been dropping year by year. But abortion is still the leading cause of death in the United
11:31 States by a wide margin. You know, all we hear about is, is gun violence. And we hear about
11:36 cancer. And we hear about all these different things that are going on. And all these things
11:39 are terrible. And I would never tell someone not to support a an organization or a charity that
11:44 really went to assist in these areas. But it's not even close. This human right that we've somehow
11:54 espoused and given out to the entirety of the world, it's insane. And then you look at countries
12:00 like India and China and North Korea that have sex selective abortion. The number of little girls
12:07 that have been killed in their mother's wombs just because the government would not allow
12:12 that many girls to be born. Think about that. The next time I hear this nonsense about how
12:18 progressive and how, you know, great China is China, you know, they've kind of softened on this a
12:24 little bit, but they have a one child policy. And they, for the most part, want that child to be a
12:28 male. Because they understand that they need more males for the country for a lot of different
12:33 reasons. And this is not a podcast about the future that we're going to have to have with China.
12:37 But just think about that. But the government tells you, no, can't have that one. Can't have that.
12:43 And think about the number of families that don't have the government intercede in some way.
12:48 They just say, no, we don't want a girl. We don't want another girl. We can need to have boys.
12:52 Just crazy. So there's one story 42 million people killed in 2018. Now the next story I want to go
12:58 through is the Center for Medical Progress. And they kind of got a W here recently. This is very,
13:03 very recently. This was just announced on the 17th of January of this year, 2019. So if you
13:09 remember, or if it sounds familiar, the Center for Medical Progress, this was a group of people
13:14 that went undercover basically to bust Planned Parenthood for the evil vile and satanic things
13:20 that they're doing with babies, aside from just killing them. So they had all these videos. Maybe
13:25 you can remember in some of these videos about these women kind of bragging about selling the
13:31 fetal tissue and selling these baby parts, which they're not supposed to do. They're not supposed
13:35 to profit off of these things. And they were being so coy about it saying, Oh, you know, I'd buy a
13:40 Lamborghini if I could get more of get rid of more of these kids or more of this tissue or whatever
13:44 thing was. And they just had a series of these videos. And of course they went viral because these
13:50 people didn't know they were being watched. They didn't know they were being videoed. And so they
13:54 were just being natural. They're natural satanic selves. But the thing about it is Planned Parenthood
13:59 being the large conglomeration that it is that is supported by huge, huge billionaire donors all
14:05 over the place and the federal government, they sued this group of people trying to ruin their lives
14:10 claiming that the videos were deceptively edited. And I'm very sensitive to that topic. If someone
14:17 is giving a quote and you take a small quote out and, you know, take it out of context and make it
14:22 sound worse than it is. And the thing was is there was an initial ruling that the judge said, Yes,
14:27 that these videos were deceptively edited. But on the 17th of this month, a three judge panel of
14:33 the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit actually released an opinion. And the name
14:38 of the case is Planned Parenthood of greater Texas family planning and preventative health
14:41 services, Inc. versus Smith. But in this opinion, the court reversed the district court's preliminary
14:47 injunction, preventing Texas the state of Texas from terminating state Medicaid funding to Planned
14:53 Parenthood. Okay, what does that all mean? That basically means the state of Texas is able to
14:58 defund Planned Parenthood, Planned Parenthood right now, which is amazing, which is fantastic.
15:04 Thank you, Texas. Everything is bigger in Texas, including your balls, because it takes balls to
15:09 go at one of the largest murdering organization, the largest murdering organization in the history
15:16 of the planet Earth, right? Now Planned Parenthood will surely fight back against this. This is
15:21 something that will probably make its way all the way up to the Supreme Court. I don't really see
15:25 a way that it won't get there. But man, thank you to the state of Texas for standing up and doing
15:31 that. Now, this could be posturing. This might be something that they they don't actually follow
15:35 through with or or something like that they're gonna have to change some things around. But
15:39 this is what has to happen. When you defund Planned Parenthood, you are defending an organization
15:44 that specifically spends its money on killing babies. And don't give me this nonsense about,
15:49 oh, none of that funding goes to support abortion. All that funding goes for pap smears and, you know,
15:55 mammograms and all these other different services. That's nonsense. That'd be like me saying, oh,
16:01 no, no, no, the thousand dollars that you gave me to help pay my bills that I spent on heroin,
16:07 it wasn't for heroin. Like it was for my, it was for my groceries. It was for my rent, right?
16:12 That's nonsense. All the money goes into the same exact pot. So to claim that it's not going to
16:17 abortion somehow somehow is absolutely absurd. So there was another update that I have for you
16:22 guys. There's a thing now called shout your abortion, which doesn't that sound like fun.
16:28 But the thing about it is it's actually growing in popularity. So the person who runs this movement
16:33 of shouting your abortion, basically being super super proud and telling the world about your
16:38 abortion is a gal named Amelia Bono. Okay. Now, if that name sounds familiar or shout your abortion
16:44 sounds familiar, it's probably because you saw this video recently. This woman Bono, she did an
16:49 eight minute video where she was talking to kids about her abortion. She was basically sitting down
16:56 with seven, eight, nine year old kids trying to tell, tell them and convince them why her abortion
17:02 was okay. So here's the thing. I'll just say just kind of as a little bit of a side. I don't
17:08 generally like videos where kids are being exploited like this, especially in a heavily
17:14 edited controlled manner. I just don't like that whether they're on my side or not. I don't like
17:20 when you as a parent make a sign like for a rally or you know, a sit in or some sort of a, you know,
17:26 thing that you're doing to or a riot or whatever thing might be when you make a sign and have your
17:32 kid hold it up. So that was something I was especially offended by whenever the Oklahoma teachers
17:38 that were fighting to get their pay raise last year and they did a walk out and it was this big
17:42 thing. A lot of these teachers and a lot of their supporters were making signs and putting it in
17:46 the hands of their kids, their toddlers and having them hold it up. Like, please don't take away my
17:51 future and all this other nonsense. The thing is, is that kid can't have an opinion on that issue
17:56 because they're just a kid. They don't have the foggiest idea how to even poop, not in their pants
18:02 or how to keep themselves alive if they needed to. And yet they're going to have some super advanced
18:07 opinion on state funding and budgetary concerns. Give me a frickin break. I don't like it. I don't
18:13 even like it when people that I agree with do that. So I see people on the anti abortion side of
18:18 things having kids hold up signs in the street. I don't like it. All right. So it's just a gross
18:23 thing. That is not that kid's opinion. That kid does not have a nuance or developed enough brain
18:27 to be able to have an opinion on such a huge issue. So let me get off my sub box a little bit
18:32 and go back into this video. So again, eight minute videos she sit down with these kids
18:36 basically saying why her abortion was okay. She was essentially proud and bragging about the fact
18:40 that she killed an unborn human. And but the thing that's really interesting about this video and as
18:46 you can imagine, I will bet I will give you the link to this video if you want to torture yourself
18:50 and watch it. She starts out talking about quote the baby. So at the early part of this video,
18:57 because obviously they're trying to do some sort of a narrative with this video somehow. But
19:02 they're talking about the baby, right? It's the baby. And you know, I got pregnant with a baby.
19:07 But then when they started talking about the abortion, when this woman Bono started talking
19:11 about the abortion, she transitions into talking about quote the pregnancy. Okay. So these kids
19:18 were asking, Hey, what happens during an abortion? Right? Because this one's an expert at, you know,
19:22 the process of killing children. This is exactly what the woman says. She basically said, I went
19:28 to the doctor and they put up this thing up by vagina and they just sucked out the pregnancy.
19:35 As if the pregnancy is the thing, like the object, the subject, a pregnancy. No, you are
19:44 experiencing a pregnancy. What is being sucked out in pieces is a human. It's living and has life.
19:52 And one of the things was, is this obviously was very heavily edited to make this Bono
19:58 person seem like a hero. But one kid asks her what God thinks about abortion, right? This is like
20:04 a seven year old, right? Hey, what do you, what do you think God thinks about abortion? As if this
20:07 woman really even believes in him. Her response was that she thinks abortion is all part of God's
20:15 plan. That's what she said, that this is all part of God's plan, which sounds really piffy and cruel.
20:23 Like it seems, it seems really cool, right? Oh, you know, yeah, this is just part of God's plan.
20:27 And you know, if I have a baby later, like that'll be, that'll be part of God's plan or whatever.
20:31 But just think about that. And some of these kids thought that that was an acceptable answer
20:35 because they're dumb because they're kids. So I thought it was insipid. I thought it was evil.
20:41 This video, but this is just a normal thing that we're going to shout our abortion.
20:46 It's not something to be ashamed of. It's not something that we should have to hide.
20:50 But yeah, let's just shout it from the rooftops, what we've done. So that's a thing that's been
20:54 happening since the last time we talked about this. Let's move into the next thing. And this one is
20:58 actually pretty huge. The president of Planned Parenthood, the new president is basically finally
21:03 acknowledging what we already knew to be true. So let me just back up a little bit. So in January,
21:08 there was a BuzzFeed article. So January the month that we're in, there was a BuzzFeed article
21:12 entitled Planned Parenthood's new president wants to focus on nonabortion health care.
21:17 So let me say that again, because it's going to be really important. Planned Parenthood's new
21:22 president wants to focus on nonabortion health care. Okay. So this entire article was focusing on the
21:28 new Planned Parenthood president, Dr. Liana Nguyen. And the thing about Liana Nguyen is she's a doctor.
21:35 She's a medical doctor. And so they know that they're losing the argument on the medical and
21:40 scientific side of things when it comes to pro choice versus pro life. But now they're going
21:44 to put a doctor in there, right? So anytime abortion is brought into question, well, she's a doctor,
21:49 right? She's got the Hippocratic oath. She's got all these things that she needs to do because
21:53 she's a doctor, a doctor with a seared consciousness and a satanic brain. But aside from that, let's
21:59 digress a little bit. But here's the thing that's really, really interesting about this article.
22:02 After the article was released, Dr. Nguyen surprisingly came out on Twitter against the article. And
22:10 again, this is BuzzFeed. This is not a conservative think piece organization by by any stretch of
22:17 the imagination. They are very, very left leaning. But Dr. Nguyen was not happy with how this, how this
22:24 thing was started. And basically, she was not really happy with how the article was titled.
22:28 And so here are the two tweets that she put out afterwards. And this is really, really telling
22:34 about what Planned Parenthood is all about. Okay, there's the first tweet. I am always happy to do
22:39 interviews, but these headlines completely misconstrued my vision for Planned Parenthood.
22:44 Here's the second tweet. First, our core mission is providing, protecting and expanding access
22:51 to abortion and reproductive health care. We will never back down from that fight. It's a fundamental
22:56 human right. And women's lives are at stake. Well, isn't that an amazing admission?
23:03 Because Planned Parenthood has been telling us for decades. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
23:09 Our core mission isn't about abortion. It's health care. And if the woman's health
23:16 is in the balance and an abortion will fix everything, then we are here to do that.
23:20 Here's the other thing that you hear. You hear that Planned Parenthood, and they say this a lot,
23:25 that 3% of all the services they provide are abortions. There's a lot of stupid people out
23:32 there that think this is the truth. Okay, this has been so debunked. But people like the people
23:38 that run Planned Parenthood know that the media is not going to call them them out on this.
23:43 And so they just keep putting this stat forward, right? That only 3% of what we do is abortions.
23:48 The rest we do are all these other things that help women. But Rich Lowry, he actually did
23:52 a study of this. This is a guy who works for the New York Post. Back in 2015, he explained why
23:57 Planned Parenthood claims that abortion only represents 3% of its services. Technically,
24:02 it's business. But the thing about it is is that 3% little factoid, well, you know, I'll just read
24:09 from the article so you can actually get it. So I'll read from the article that was posted in the
24:12 New York Post. So I'm going to read this whole section here. That explains it in great detail.
24:15 Okay, the 3% factoid is crafted to obscure the reality of Planned Parenthood's business.
24:21 The group performs about 33 or 330,000, 330,000 abortions a year or roughly 30% of all the abortions
24:30 in the country. They are the leading provider of that service, by the way, by its own accounting
24:35 in its 2013 to 2014 annual report, it provides about as many abortions as PAP tests, PAP tests
24:42 were 380,000. The group does more breast exams and provides more breast care services about 490,000,
24:49 but not by that much. The 3% figure is derived by counting abortion as just another service,
24:57 like much less consequential services. By Planned Parenthood's math, a woman who gets an abortion,
25:03 but also a pregnancy test, an STD test, in some contraceptives has received four services,
25:11 and only 25% of them are abortion. This is a little like performing an abortion and giving
25:17 a woman an aspirin and saying only half of what you do is abortion. Okay, so it is absolute nonsense,
25:25 nonsense. When people talk about the 3% and a lot of people that are on the pro choice side of this
25:31 argument will when we start bringing up Planned Parenthood and how they should be defunded,
25:35 they're like, no, no, no, like it's only 3% of what they do. They do so much good for the community
25:40 and blah, blah, blah, and all that. No, the overwhelming majority of the thing that they do as a business,
25:44 which is exactly what they are, is murdered children. That's exactly what they're great at,
25:49 and they're great at making money while they do it. Now, let's move on to the state of New York.
25:53 So Andrew Cuomo, he has a new legislation proposal that he's just come out with, right?
25:59 He's the New York state governor, and he announces with the help of former Democratic nominee for
26:03 President Hillary Clinton, who is apparently just as satanic as he is, he said that he wouldn't
26:08 support the New York state 2019 2020 budget until the New York state legislature approves the
26:16 Reproductive Health Act and the Comprehensive Contraception Coverage Act. Okay, I'll explain
26:21 a little bit more about what that is in here in a second. But Cuomo went so far as to even call
26:26 for an actual amendment to the state constitution of New York to get this done. So this would essentially
26:31 make it almost impossible for future governors or state legislatures to reverse these actions
26:37 of the Reproductive Health Act and the Comprehensive Contraception Coverage Act. But what the bill
26:42 would essentially do is it would end the decades old law that criminalizes late-term abortions.
26:50 If, you know, just in case Roe v. Wade is overturned. So the big thing that this bill does is this
26:57 bill would allow abortions up to the day of birth. Again, this bill would allow for abortions up
27:05 to the age of birth in the state of New York. And Cuomo is doing everything he can to get this
27:12 enshrined into New York law, right? Because if we do one day overturn Roe, it's not all of a sudden
27:19 that abortion is just gone in the United States. It basically goes back to the states. And he wants
27:25 to make sure that just in case somewhere down the line, there's a red legislature and a red candidate
27:30 in New York that they're not going to overturn this if Roe v. Wade is out. And it was trumpeted
27:36 by the people on the left as this great accomplishment, this wonderful accomplishment. Man, Andrew Cuomo
27:43 and Hillary Clinton, they're so forward thinking that they're just thinking to themselves, you know
27:47 what? You know what would be awesome? Let's ensure that people can murder their babies in this state
27:52 at an unbelievable degree. Let's give the mothers nine months to think about if they want this thing,
27:59 right? Let's let the mother just consider for nine months, whether what's growing inside of her
28:06 has any purpose. Isn't that not just exciting? I'm so glad we live in a society that allows for that.
28:12 I mean, how disappointed would you be if you were a New Yorker and at, you know, basically the day
28:17 you're supposed to give birth, you couldn't just flip a coin and decide whether or not you wanted
28:21 this human to be alive. You know, I'm just so glad we have that as an opportunity. Good grief, man.
28:27 It's so unbelievable. I mean, it's just Satan has his hooks so far in the pro choice movement.
28:32 It's absolutely astonishing. Now, let's talk about the last thing here, one of the last updates,
28:36 because this was a recent one as well. Nancy Pelosi, who is the again, she is the house majority leader
28:44 for the United States House of Representatives. She's going after the Hyde Amendment. Okay, so
28:49 she's kind of the spearhead for it. But this has been on the Democratic ticket of ideas basically
28:54 since 2016 is that they wanted to get rid of the Hyde Amendment. So if you're not familiar with
28:58 the Hyde Amendment, in 1976, it was a law passed that actually bans the use of federal funds to pay
29:04 for abortion. So Democrats basically want that gone. They want that out of here. They want
29:09 not only for you to be able to have an abortion all the way up to the day of birth,
29:13 they also want you to be able to have an abortion and have guys like me pay for it. Taxpayers.
29:19 They want the taxpayers to pay for us to murder American citizens. Let's just think about that for
29:24 a second. They I mean, think about the number of things that we pay for as you know, as United
29:30 States citizens and just think about it. Hey, let's spend a chunk of that on murdering innocent people.
29:35 Doesn't that sound like fun? Because immediately people will be like, well, don't you like capital
29:40 punishment? Yeah, if somebody's raped or murdered somebody, they forfeited their rights to life. That
29:44 goes back to the Bible. So I'm sorry, this is not the same thing using the state funds to
29:50 basically extinguish someone's life, who is extinguish someone else's life. No, this is not that.
29:55 This is an innocent person. They've done nothing. We've nothing done nothing to anybody. And we
30:00 want to be able to use funds to kill those people. And another thing that's kind of come up,
30:05 this is going to seem a little bit obscure. But you can obviously see where this would happen.
30:09 Remember when people talked about abortions back in the day, especially, you know, during the 90s,
30:13 it was needed to be safe, legal and rare, right? Safe, legal and rare. That was the big democratic
30:19 talking point about abortion, because you know, we can't just have people having coat hanger
30:22 abortions, because obviously there were millions and millions of women that were having that done,
30:26 right? But the thing about safe, legal and rare is that why does it need to be rare?
30:31 Like, why can't we just expand it? So there was always a problem with safe, legal and rare,
30:37 because you knew it was going to always expand, because then it's like, okay, at what point
30:42 can we get rid of this human, right? And so now you have people like Andrew Cuomo and Hillary
30:47 Clinton that are pushing the boundaries to the day of birth. So again, to remind you guys,
30:52 a partial birth abortion is where they pull the baby's feet out of the mother's womb, right?
30:57 They put they actually pulled out of her vagina, but they leave the head inside of her vagina.
31:02 They jam a pair of scissors into the base of the skull. They open it up and they suck the brain out,
31:08 because when you suck the brain out, it actually allows the skull to basically get sunken in,
31:14 so that you can pull the rest of the baby out without damaging the mother. Think about that.
31:19 Is babies alive, y'all? I mean, it's been alive the entire time, but this is a baby that could
31:24 absolutely survive outside the womb with the assistance from mom and dad. Isn't that exciting?
31:29 That's so exciting. But the thing I was trying to talk about is there's a little movement now,
31:34 but you can imagine that it will continue to grow for post birth abortion.
31:41 Yeah, I didn't misspeak post birth abortion. If you ever want to have a good night,
31:47 go to Google, type in post birth abortion. There are people that are advocating for killing the child
31:54 now after it is outside the womb. And this is rubbing a lot of people amazingly. It's rubbing
32:00 them the wrong way, including pro-choice people. Oh gosh, how could we possibly do something so
32:07 barbaric? And you kind of have to ask the question beyond that. What do you mean by barbaric?
32:12 So if I stick a pair of scissors through its heart after it's been alive for a week,
32:19 like or after it's basically been outside of the womb for a week, right? It's technically seven
32:24 days old. Nice. You know, I kill it. Like that's reprehensible. That's murder. But if I had
32:30 basically pulled it out of the vagina and stuck some scissors in the back of its head and sucked
32:35 its brains out on the day it was supposed to be born, that that's also okay. That's a women's
32:40 right. That's health care, right? So guys, I can't even imagine what these podcasts are going to
32:46 look like in future years. Because all the stuff that I've just talked about, that stuff that's
32:50 happened in the last year, like these are these are things that are just happening. Now, the one
32:55 thing that I do find a little bit encouraging is that we have a new generation generation Z.
33:03 And these individuals seem to be a lot more pro life. Because this or this group of students,
33:09 this group of young people, they're very scientifically focused. So these are people that are very,
33:14 very concerned about climate change. But at the same time, they look at the science and they
33:19 could read a biology biology textbook. Some of our democratic, uh, Congress people can't,
33:24 but they can read a biology textbook and they can see when life begins. Like this isn't that hard,
33:29 right? And so guys, it's just something that we need to be looking at, it's something that we
33:34 need to be concerned about. And I know that a lot of you guys never really had this as a concern in
33:37 your brain until you started listening to this podcast. And so that's a good thing and a bad
33:42 thing. Good that you guys are now thinking about it, but bad that you didn't think about it before.
33:46 And if you go back to the end of the episode that I've been talking about this whole show,
33:49 which is episode six of this podcast, I talked about our role as men of God in the fight for
33:54 saving these individuals from being murdered. And the three things that I said were educate
33:59 yourself. Are you intelligently and tactfully? And you have to enter the fight. Those were the three.
34:05 So the first one educate yourself is obviously you got to stay up on things like this. Ask yourself
34:10 all the stories and all the news that I've talked about on this podcast. Did you already
34:13 know that? Are you hearing it for the first time for me? Got to stay educated. Second thing,
34:18 argue intelligently and tactfully, you have to engage in conversations with people that you
34:22 disagree with. Again, I talked about this a few times on my podcast, but I had a buddy that I very,
34:26 very vehemently disagree with just about on everything. He and I spent a lot of time talking about abortion.
34:31 And he and I actually went to a concert this last weekend. And we talked about abortion again on
34:35 the drive up. And the thing was is that the conversation always stays cordial because we're
34:40 really good friends. But again, you have to be able to argue intelligently. You can't just say,
34:44 well, I don't think you should kill babies because I don't know some in the Bible, some my preacher
34:49 say it. So I think that you shouldn't be able to do that. Okay, that's not a good argument. That's
34:55 not an intelligent or tactful argument. You got to be able to enter into these conversations. And
34:59 the third thing again, you have to enter the fight. You have to actually do it. You have to actually
35:03 actively support organizations that are fighting against this. So but as I've been thinking since
35:08 last year, all of those three things still apply. But there's a few other things that I want to make
35:12 sure to add that these are additional calls to action, if you will, that will help us as we are
35:17 men of God fighting for the rights of these unborn humans. And the first thing that I wanted to add
35:22 to that previous list is educate others. So again, the last time we talked about educating yourself
35:27 and that it's so important, but use the education that you give yourself to educate other people.
35:32 And I'm talking about your kids and your friends. Because guess what guys, if you don't talk to your
35:38 kids about abortion, their stupid public school teachers will their left wing pro-choice public
35:44 teachers will tell them about abortion. They will tell them that it's okay. They will tell them that
35:48 you're not sucking out and snuffing out a human life. You're just sucking out the pregnancy.
35:53 Doesn't it sound so easy? It's like getting your tonsils removed, right? Not a big deal.
35:58 So educate others. That's your responsibility. If you have the information, if you have the
36:04 information on how to do something and you like withhold that from people, especially on an
36:08 important topic like this, that's not serving anybody. Okay. A second additional call to action
36:14 is to eradicate euphemisms from your vocabulary. Okay. You have to get rid of them.
36:19 Because we all out for too long in this society for people to use euphemisms in these euphemisms
36:25 for abortion and for this entire process has led so many people to believe that this is okay.
36:29 I literally have people tell me an abortion is not murder. It's a medical procedure, right?
36:36 So no, we don't need to call it a procedure. We need to call it an abortion.
36:41 But in addition to that, we don't need to just call it an abortion. We need to call it murder
36:46 because that's what it is. It's definitionally murder. When you take the life of an innocent person,
36:52 it is murder. And again, it's not choice. It's killing. So we really need to refocus our vocabulary
37:01 here. And I know it seems a little bit weird. It seems a little bit awful. Like, why can't we
37:05 just call it abortion? Why do we have to call it murder? Because we need to be specific in our
37:09 speech. Go back to the first episode of this year, guys, the 15 ways to avoid being a crappy man in
37:14 2019. One of those things was being precise in your speech. So no, this is one of those exact
37:20 moments where we need to be super, super precise in the things that we're saying. This is not
37:25 choice. This is not just an abortion. This is not a procedure. This is murder. This is killing.
37:30 And the last thing that I would add to this is debap. And for those of you that don't know
37:35 what that means, you should look it up. But debap, guys, so many of you guys are so unwilling to
37:40 enter into these conversations and enter into the fight. And I'm tired of it. I'm tired of being
37:47 the only one in my group of friends. We all believe this way. But every time they have an
37:52 opportunity to educate someone else and call them out for saying things that are absolutely and
37:56 completely and abjectly false, they cower. And I know I got some of you brothers out there. So I
38:02 don't want to be too judgmental on that side of things. But you got to enter the fray, guys.
38:07 And most of the time, it's just because you're being a pussy. So debap, you know what I'm saying?
38:12 All right, guys, before I let you out of here, we're going to do a quick resilience boost.
38:16 As you know, by now, we are a men's ministry. And our mission is to cultivate manly resilience.
38:20 And specifically, we do that by providing content that for just spiritual, mental and physical
38:25 toughness. So today we're going to be working on mental resilience. So I've got a lot of links
38:28 for you guys is going to be going into a lot of things that we talked about on this episode.
38:31 But the very first thing, again, I'm going to encourage you, please listen to episode six
38:35 of this podcast. So wherever you're listening to this, just scroll back to the beginning of 2018,
38:40 listen to that podcast. Here's some of the other links I got for you. So the first one is actually
38:45 the recording of Ben Shapiro giving the keynote address for the March for Life. So I got that
38:49 there for you. I've got the life news story about where the leading cause of death in 2018 was
38:55 abortion. So that's got some interesting statistics in there for you. Then I've got a news article
39:00 for you guys about the federal appeals court ruling that that those videos were not deceptively
39:06 edited. So I've got that in there for you. So you guys can check that out. The sharp shout
39:10 your abortion lady. So that little eight minute video that I talked about a lot. I've got that
39:14 in here for you. So you can check that out. There's also the actual BuzzFeed article. So if you want
39:19 to torture yourself and read a BuzzFeed article, I've provided to you that. But it's actually the
39:23 article that they wrote on the new Planned Parenthood president. So you can check that out.
39:27 Then also I've got the a little the original story from the from the guy from the New York
39:32 Post basically telling you that the 3% lie from Planned Parenthood is just absolutely
39:36 reprehensible and pathetic. So that's in here. Also, I've got Ben Shapiro making a short appearance
39:41 on Shannon Breams show on Fox News. So you can see a little bit of what he was saying the day
39:46 before he did the keynote. But then also I wanted to make you guys aware and I'm left the links
39:50 here. I've got these four links about some anti-abortion ministries that we here at Undaunted Life Support.
39:56 These are ones that we think you guys should donate money to. We think that you should
39:59 support them on social media. You should like their stuff, share their stuff, do all those different
40:03 things. The first one is live action. The next is end abortion now. That's the one supported by
40:10 apology radio, Jeff Durban, that group. And then the one we talked about on episode six of this
40:14 podcast is ICU mobile is basically a mobile unit that helps women see the babies inside of them
40:20 and actually leads a lot of these women to Christ. And the last one is life news.com. I included life
40:25 news.com there because again, if you guys are going to educate yourself and stay up on a lot
40:29 of the issues that are going on in the news on the subject of abortion, I think life news does
40:33 some of the best in that subject matter. But also I would suggest that you guys go to the daily
40:39 wire that has been Shapiro's his news organization because you can go to the search bar and just
40:45 type in abortion. They actually keep a running tab on a lot of the different stories that have to do
40:50 with abortion. So guys, thanks so much for listening to the podcast. We really do appreciate it. Please
