What does it mean to be “pro-life?”

Faithwire received a wide range of responses when we ventured out last year to ask — perspectives that extended well beyond peoples’ mere opposition to abortion.

In fact, interviewees said that being pro-life means valuing life “womb to tomb.”

“Recognizing each person’s potential for life,” one marcher offered up. Another added that pro-life means, “A commitment to nonviolence … towards those who are incapable of defending themselves.”

Some provided a clear distinction in framing the definition, affirming that, while abortion is a pro-life concern, the definition extends well beyond that paradigm.

“It’s about all life … from conception to natural death,” another marcher proclaimed.

Watch video responses surrounding what it means to be pro-life — and see how some people said they would try to change opponents’ minds on the matter:
