The feeling is that no one could be elected in this amoral society of ours if he adopted a strict and consistent pro-life position. They argue that it is better to make some gains by compromise, than to make none by a determined pursuit of truth. Truth does not contradict itself. It is not something one day, and something else the following day. It is not a quality required of some but not of others.
Truth transcends time, place, and circumstance.
Truth is steadfast and elevating. Truth's standard is difficult to achieve, because we are so flawed with moral digression.
