pro-life?

I've just heard an analogy for pro lifers to ponder over. If life truely begins at conception, then imagine an IVF clinic that accidentally sets on fire, everyone manages to escape the building, but there are still several hundered fertilised eggs in storage in liquid nitrogen tanks, should firemen enter the building to attempt to rescue these several hundred lives, or not?

Their definition of life is based on periodic convenience, as evidenced by their total lack of regard for all living things. Destruction of the environemt kills many things, but to these right wing religious zealots, the only life that counts is white, christian, american life, and then only sometimes.
hypocrites and fools....all of them.

No, they shouldn't. The defense of narrowly defined life is ludicrous. The number of children living in poverty or dying before the age of 18 in this country should be of concern, but it isn't.
