Have you ever had to defend something that you didn't agree with? This is done in debate class all around the country. You look at the opposite side way of thinking. Last night I had to do this for our Sr. High Youth Group. Our leader asked if I would be pro abortion. I was to take a group of kids who may or may not believe in abortion and try to show them why it was a good thing in the case of rape, incest, and if the child would be disabled in some fashion. I had the kids start thinking of some good points that people use in the real world. I even had the Pro Life side stumbling and just resorting to Religious beliefs but not world belief. But, the more in character I got, the more I confirmed my own thoughts how bad abortion is. I challenge you to take a matter of something and look at the opposite side view and try to argue for that side. If your own convictions do not stand out stronger at the end, maybe you need to change your thinking a little.

I'm sure glad I wasn't an abortion! I could have been and was scheduled to be one, but my mom couldn't go through with it. Now I have my own kids and I get to be Trevor's Mamo!!!!!!!
