The Point: Planned Miscarriage?

Who’s sabotaging Planned Parenthood’s Twitter account? For the Colson Center, I’m John Stonestreet with The Point.

I’ve been saying for a while now that there’s got to be a pro-life mole running Planned Parenthood’s Twitter page. So many tweets and images they post seem to undermine or parody their pro-death position.

Last Friday their tweet read, “[There’s] a common misconception that the mom who miscarries is a very different person than the woman who aborts, but I’m here to say there is no difference.”

The tweet linked to a column by a pro-choice blogger who wrote that despite her three miscarriages, she still supports abortion.

Wait. No difference? The tragic loss of an unborn child due to circumstances outside the mother’s control, vs. the deliberate killing of a child? That’s like saying there’s no difference between natural death and murder!

Comparing miscarriage with elective abortion is incredibly offensive. And it suggests what we all know—that the loss of an unborn life is the loss of a human life—it’s a tragedy to grieve, not something to celebrate.
