Question
how can i end a persuasive speech against abortion

Answer
You could end it a number of ways but generally I end in the following.  Obviously a summary of what you just discussed.  Things people can do now and then I usually end with an inspiring quote, like the late Congressman Henry Hyde's quote. "When the time comes, as it surely will, when we face that awesome moment, the final judgment, I've often thought, as Fulton Sheen wrote, that it is a terrible moment of loneliness. You have no advocates, you are there alone standing before God -- and a terror will rip your soul like nothing you can imagine. But I really think that those in the pro-life movement will not be alone. I think there'll be a chorus of voices that have never been heard in this world but are heard beautifully and clearly in the next world -- and they will plead for everyone who has been in this movement. They will say to God, 'Spare him, because he loved us!'"

Expertise

I can answer just about any question about abortion and recommend places to focus if you would like to learn more. My arguments are mainly secular, due to the other person I talk with usually, but I can also discuss religious viewpoints as well. I substantiate all claims I make and always welcome intelligent discussion or general questions.

Experience

I present lectures and presentations on bioethical issues and also engage in public debates. I like to focus on one-to-one interaction and attempt to reason through logic, not emotion.
