In a world where deciding between your child's life or death is seen as a choice, one you have an absolute right to make providing your child is not yet born, how is it possible to simultaneously cheer for and uplift the strength and courage of women who had children under difficult circumstances? Women who chose life when it was against impossible odds, when it was difficult, when they had to make dramatic sacrifices to have that child made a choice that is explicitly denoted as a reason to abort your child. The same people who would argue that we need abortion for women who are poor so they don't have poor children with difficult lives somehow find no conflict in celebrating the strength of women who choose life in those situations. It's actually entirely inconsistent with their beliefs, but the truth always finds a way, and it is here in this situation.
By all accounts, women who choose to have their children in difficult circumstances when abortion is an option should be considered by such people to have simply made a bad choice. An irresponsible choice, even. How is it possible to celebrate a woman who raised a child in poverty and difficult circumstances when you also believe abortion must be available for exactly those same women? You cannot simultaneously argue that abortion is absolutely necessary because otherwise children would be born into poverty (which you believe is bad), but then think a woman is strong for having a child in such conditions. Even worse are the people who believe that poor people who choose to have children are being selfish and reckless, and yet will cheer when they hear of a woman who risked everything and braved unfathomable circumstances to raise her child up into the world, providing the child was "an accident", or the result of deplorable actions by actors other than the woman. When poor people choose on purpose to birth children, it's selfish and irresponsible, but a woman who does so under other circumstances is somehow always a hero.
The reason this happens is, yes of course partially because such people do not truly think through their beliefs carefully enough to recognize the inconsistency, but because it is brave and honorable for such a woman to birth and raise her child in difficult circumstances. It's objectively true and people are swayed - unknowingly, perhaps - by the beauty of truth in this world. While they fight day and night to rewire their brains to hate beauty and despise truth, this particular truth shines through the cracks in their not yet fully hardened heart. Women are irresistibly respectable when they honor their value as carriers of precious life, the souls of the people created by our good and righteous Creator nurtured within their very bodies, and even those who seek to destroy that life find it difficult to fight against this flagrantly beautiful display.
The same people who believe abortion clinics should be free, same day walk-ins and available every 5 miles across the country are unable to resist the beauty of a woman who respects herself and the life she creates to raise her children despite unfathomable hardships. While the inconsistency of a such a person who would champion death for the children of the poor is unideal, it is refreshing at least to see that powerful vigils to truth such as these still pierce their cold hearts.
