DESCRIPTION:

This quick response video addresses one (1) of the most challenging pro-choice dialogue points, what we call the "Human-Plus" argument: that you need something like human nature - Plus - another feature like sentience or consciousness, in order to have Personhood.

As Emily Albrecht explains, the "Human-Plus" argument isn't challenging to respond to because it's a good argument, but because it's a bad one. "Human-Plus" is ad-hoc, adding extra requirements just to exclude the unborn, and it's hard to get people to realize why this is a problem.

This video walks you through what ERI has found to be most effective when trying to help someone avoid being ad-hoc in a dialogue about abortion.
