I completely disagree.
Isn't it disconcerting to think of a world where people didn't assertively stand up for their biggest value? The pro-life stance centers around the belief that abortion is an act that kills a person.
What a pathetic world it would be if those in the minority quieted down and didn't stand up for their beliefs.
If it makes someone feel good, I suppose that has some value in and of itself. But it's not pragmatic. If the goal is to lessen the number of fetuses being aborted, it would make more sense to use that energy promoting the use of contraception. Or abstinence, but that doesn't work as well.

I really question just how many people consider abortion to be the moral equivalent of killing an actual grown person.
If that many people really thought mass murder was occurring, they'd be busting down the doors of abortion clinics. A fair number would be taking up arms; anything to stop something worse than the Holocaust.
