Stumbling
Much of the pro-death mantras that we hear have resulted from failure to recognize apparent contradictions. A contradiction arises when you condemn someone else's position, but in advocating your own you affirm the position you just criticised.
Sometimes this truly results from simply not seeing or understanding what is taking place. This can happen when we are so passionate about a position, that we have not taken the time to step away and consider that our own point of view some how contradicts itself. The contradiction also can rear its head when our zealous stance somehow also commits the very behavior we have already criticized.
In practice
It is a contradiction to profess to be pro-life and then blow up an abortion clinic or murder someone who performs abortion. Such terrorists are little better than the provider they have labelled as murderers. It is also a contradiction to declare that no one has a right to interfere with a person's choice to live or die; then declare that no one has the same freedom to choose to accept or reject this same position. In this last case people are denied the chance to hold their own belief about end of life morality. It is a case of advocating absolute freedom of choice with no room to make a choice about the same position.
