And\u00a0Seneca Choices for Life is ready to challenge that.<\/p>\n<p>The strategy\u00a0to counter abortion, the center notes, is to be as boldly pro-life as the abortion clinics are pro-abortion:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;How can we expect to foster a pro-life culture if we hide our beliefs in the shadows? Abortion clinics have flourished by boldly and unapologetically declaring their stance. As a result clinics like Planned Parenthood have become a mainstream part of our culture; being invited into our government\u2019s budget, school systems and communities. Pro-life options have been bullied into a corner where their life affirming options are patronized under a label of intolerance.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Seneca is raising funds\u00a0to move in next door to the abortion clinic,\u00a0offering women a chance to choose\u00a0life: &#8220;Women are not going to stroll into our clinic because we are vague about the services we offer; the women who are going to walk into Seneca are those women who are desperately searching for a light in the mist of darkness; searching for love in the mist of intolerance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, a woman in crisis wants answers. Abortion clinics make a promise that the &#8220;problem&#8221; can go away. But <a href=\"http:\/\/www.senecacfl.org\/pregnant\/\" target=\"_blank\">Seneca says it can, too<\/a>.
