Summary
Scott Klusendorf is joined by Jonathan Van Maren to defend the argument that leading with legislation to prosecute women for murder is a strategic mistake in today's post-Christian culture,. They push back against critics, warning that an all-or-nothing approach is likely to trigger a massive backlash that results in nothing for the unborn. By drawing on Abraham Lincoln’s incremental strategy, the duo emphasizes winning the trench war of social reform through feasible methods that actually reduce the body count. Learn why the pro-life movement must prioritize effective strategy over symbolic defeats to successfully protect the unborn in a hostile culture on this episode of The Case for Life.
