My experience has taught me that trying to discuss with them is like talking to a wall. Is there anything I could try telling them? Or is it not worth bothering?
 
i think it depends on the sort of pro-choice person. im born again, but i think abortion should be safe, legal, available, and regulated. my take on it is that social programs will do more to drive down abortion rates than draconian anti-abortion legislation, which often just creates a dangerous (for poor and working class women, anyway) black market.

but im not really "pro-choice." I just think we live in a fallen, sin marred world, and allowance must be made for human frailty and "the way the world works," etc.
 
Everyone to there own beliefs.

You have the right to your beliefs and opinions and if people are not interested or dont care then so be it that is there right.

Wipe the dust off you feet and move on peacefuly.
 
We can never force our views or opinion on people, even if we are convinced they are wrong. We have to respect the fact that they must learn to come to their own conviction in their own time. Just tell them what you believe is true and allow them to think about it for some time. The more you try to force people to change their minds the more they dig their heels in. Prayer is another way of getting through to them, but God's answer may be a gradual process.
 
Matthew 10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

All we can do is try to feed them, but you can't make them eat.

And what is it exactly you presume to be "feeding" them? Them being the people who are pro choice, as is the subject of the OP.

I thought that was obvious as it's feeding them the word of God.

So then your assumption is that anyone who is pro choice doesn't know the word of God? And it is then your responsibility to feed them?

Well written empowered. The opposite of pro life is pro death? Well that's what many Christians want to call pro choice.
Don't make it too readily available but don't condemn those that need emergency help .

Yes. Is it not from God to equip all of us who are His anointed disciples to take His word out into the world?

Christ_empowered already said he classifies himself as pro choice, as I would also classify myself as being pro choice. So it would appear then that you believe neither of us to know the word of God? And now you're going to feed us?

I'm prolife because I know it's wrong to kill babies. You have every right to choose what and how you believe. I see it as morally wrong according to God and will in a loving manner feed them as I have no right to condemn anyone.
 
The Bible never specifically addresses the issue of abortion. However, there are numerous teachings in Scripture that make it abundantly clear what God’s has said about it. Jeremiah 1:5 tells us that God knows us before He forms us in the womb. Psalm 139:13-16 speaks of God’s active role in our creation and formation in the womb. Exodus 21:22-25 prescribes the same penalty, death, for someone who causes the death of a baby in the womb as for someone who commits murder. This clearly indicates that God considers a baby in the womb to be as human as a full-grown adult. For the Christian, abortion is not a matter of a woman’s right to choose. It is a matter of the life or death of a human being made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26-27; 9:6).​

If an unknown girl in a state a thousand miles away from you makes the choice to have an abortion, or kill her baby as you would say, then tell me: By what authority do you claim judgement over this murder? Is this girl near kin to you that you should determine her blood vengeance?
 
It's so easy to demonise pro choice. I honestly don't think it is always such a definitive issue. In my opinion, pro choice can be (not always), the more compassionate types. Whereas pro life often use this issue to condemn and belittle liberal thinkers or ones who have genuine doubts anyway.
