CMA member discusses abortion

For the Community Heights Alliance Church, abortion has become an important subject. The church hosted GiGi’s Playhouse’s “I Have a Voice” traveling gallery to help demonstrate their views. The church would like to emphasis that the traveling gallery is not demonstrating a stance on the subject, but shows how mentally disabled children are beautiful .

Church member John Dunwell is an advocator for pro-life, but understands why some people are pro-choice. For him it is a question of where life starts.

“The most frustrating things about the pro-life and pro-choice movements are that we don’t talk about the same things. For example, I absolutely believe a person should have the option to choose what they want to do with their life. I don’t have a problem with that. Right or wrong, ignorant or uneducated, I believe that life begins at conception. If I believe that life didn’t begin at conception, if it was nothing more than a fetus, than I absolutely support pro-choice.”
