Abstract

This paper analyzes the rhetoric and strategies of the mainstream anti-abortion

movement to examine how their policies and advocacy map onto their proclaimed theological framework. This paper will demonstrate how the political anti-abortion party uses abortion and the subsequent theological, political, and sociological rhetoric to bring the brunt of social control to bear on woman's sexuality and enforce a patriarchal model of American culture.
