Richard Dawkins Foundation says ‘every abortion’ is part of God’s plan
The Richard Dawkins Foundation not only supports abortion, but indicates that if there is a “god,” then abortion is part of his plan. In recent weeks, the pro-abortion foundation has engaged itself in a Twitter war of words with Live Action President Lila Rose. The tit-for-tat responses of the group may sound good to some of its own abortion-minded followers, but what actually results from the Dawkins Foundation’s comments is echoes of William Shakespeare writing in Hamlet, “the lady [Dawkins Foundation] doth protest too much, methinks.” In common speech, the constant defensive the group takes against statements of scientific fact indicates that while it knows the facts it doesn’t like them, so it resorts to insults as it promotes killing preborn babies.
Rose engaged Richard Dawkins on Twitter on September 5, offering to debate the lie perpetrated by his foundation:
The foundation Twitter account fired back:
That thread resulted in multiple comments, on both sides of the argument.
But Rose was serious and indicated that she wanted a real debate, in person, not a Twitter war:
While Dawkins himself did not reply to the challenge, his foundation decided to jump on the attack train in response to various things Rose said throughout the month.
When Rose tweeted the fact that abortion is never medically necessary to save a baby’s life, this was the Dawkins Foundation response:
Rose clarified further:
The Dawkins Foundation seemed focused on protesting anything and everything it didn’t like about proving the preborn baby in the womb is real. When Rose posted the story of women in Chilé broadcasting their babies’ heartbeats in the womb — something reported by other media as well — Dawkins’ group would have none of it:
When Rose posted how a Live Action “Abortion Procedures” video had saved 13 babies’ lives when the mothers changed their minds after seeing the truth, the foundation shamed her:
And when Rose cited basic embryonic science about human life, the foundation responded:
Other users jumped in, such as this one:
But invoking God in the mix brought out the worst in the Dawkins Foundation, which replied:
The Lila Rose/Richard Dawkins Foundation Twitter war continues, but the foundation won’t come out from behind the screen where it hurls insults long enough to have a real debate. Instead, it accuses Rose of being a liar, and claims any sort of god must have planned abortion.
Both accusations prove that despite claiming to be an organization based on biological science, it might be best for Dawkins, et. al to return to biology 101.

This is just nonsense.
Incredible! These pregnant Chilean women gave their preborn children a voice by broadcasting their babies' heartbeats with megaphones for the world to hear. It's clear that abortion destroys a unique, living human being. bit.ly/2PUoE3D
Hey, @RichardDawkins - Your foundation, the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science @rdfrs, is claiming "fetuses aren't children." It also can't seem to answer the question about when human life begins. Let's debate this. Interested?
We would certainly prefer to debate you as publicly as possible. I have no problem with good sound bites - provided that they are true. But an in-person debate will allow us the time to have a longer discussion. Again, @RichardDawkins - let’s debate this. Are you interested?
Human life began ~200K years ago. You’re asking a loaded, disingenuous questions with vague terms in order to score a “gotcha”. You fail to recognize the autonomy and value of women in your valuation. You don’t want a debate you want sound bites for PR purposes.
100% BS.
Abortion is NEVER medically necessary to save a woman's life. Thousands of doctors and medical experts agree, and they signed a letter called the Dublin Declaration affirming why we must protect the preborn.
Thought this god had a plan which would make every abortion part of that plan.
Propaganda.
These abortions are not "extremely rare," @rdfrs. This is a 2nd trimester D&E abortion, and according to Guttmacher, 9.8% of abortions in the U.S. are committed from 13-20 weeks. This means roughly 100,000 babies are killed by D&E abortions every year. liveaction.org/news/debunking…
To be clear, Planned Parenthood leaders Alan Guttmacher and Mary S. Calderone have said that abortion is not medically necessary to save the life of the mother, and the Richard Dawkins Foundation @rdfrs is calling these statements "100% BS."
If god has a plan then every abortion is part of that plan.
Translation: 13 women were fed traumatizing false propaganda made by @LiveAction. Lila is very happy to have disregarded these women’s autotomy and humanity in favor of reducing them to incubators. Shame on you @LilaGraceRose.
13 children were saved from abortion after their mothers saw @LiveAction’s "Abortion Procedures" videos! When these mothers encountered the brutal reality of abortion, they knew they could not go through with the procedure. bit.ly/2NnFdIs
