Maybe, but let&#8217;s be realistic. It&#8217;s <em>never<\/em> going to happen. Very few pro-aborts will acknowledge that they&#8217;re even taking a life through abortion. They insist that it&#8217;s just a clump of tissue or a blob of cells. They do everything they can to dehumanize the unborn or obfuscate the truth. The realities of embryology and development during pregnancy are stifled.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re not about to take part in a day dedicated to remembering the lives lost from abortion.
