Actress Anna Faris loves her son, Jack, so much that she says she "would do anything for him," including considering becoming a Christian like Jack and his father — Faris' ex-husband, actor Chris Pratt.

But she has her concerns about Jack's beliefs, including the fact that he is pro-life. In a recent podcast, Faris said she suggested to Jack that his pro-life convictions are a "luxury" for him.

Key Takeaways:

• Actress Anna Faris is the mother to 14-year-old Jack Pratt, the son she shares with ex-husband, actor Chris Pratt.

• Faris stated on a recent podcast that her son wants her to become a Christian, and claimed she challenges him on his beliefs, including the fact that he is pro-life, which she suggested is a "luxury" for him.

• Faris didn't elaborate as to why she suggested being pro-life might be a "luxury" for him — whether it is because he is male, or from a well-off family, etc.

• Jack Pratt was born two months premature and spent time in a NICU, cared for by doctors and nurses who valued his life. Jack "gets to be pro-life" today because Jack was saved. The same cannot be said for children who are aborted.

• Being pro-life isn't a 'privileged' position or a "luxury" — it is speaking up for the most vulnerable humans who cannot yet speak for themselves but who have an inherent human right to life.

The Details:

Anna Faris appeared on pro-abortion comedian Chelsea Handler's podcast Dear Chelsea last week, where Faris said she doesn't share the same Christian faith as Pratt or their son Jack, who is now 14.

"I didn't grow up with religion," she said. "[Jack] has asked me to accept Jesus Christ... I told him that I would do anything for him, including this, but it's still going to take a whole lot of long conversations."

Among those conversations is her effort to "challenge" Jack in his convictions, such as asking him his thoughts on "mega-pastors" and on abortion.

"And he's impressive. Actually he's impressive because I try to challenge him. I'm like, 'Do you think it's a luxury that you get to be pro-life? Do you think that's kind of a luxury?' He's like, 'Maybe,'" she said.

Zoom In:

It's unclear exactly what Faris means by claiming it is a "luxury" for a 14-year-old boy to espouse pro-life convictions.

Is it possible that she thinks...

• As the son of wealthy parents and as a male, Jack is unlikely to face the challenges that many people living with unexpected pregnancies or challenges during pregnancy face?

• These convictions make it easy for Jack to suggest that someone choose life even though he hasn't experienced the same hardships?

A large share of the pro-abortion marketing plan focuses on how 'poor women need abortion' and portray it as solely a women's issue.

But at the same time, abortion activists also spread the message that no one is immune to 'needing' an abortion — not even men, as various campaigns have claimed:

• Some have portrayed men as "abortion beneficiaries."

• Groups like Men4Choice see that men benefit from abortion. The group's co-executive director, Oren Jacobsen, once stated that the group's goal is “helping men understand they’re stakeholders in this fight with something to lose" — meaning that keeping abortion legal helps men to "win" at the expense of their preborn children's lives.

Young men like Jack could grow up and find themselves in relationships that experience unplanned pregnancies, or they may have children who are faced with difficult prenatal diagnoses. What happens to this alleged "luxury" or "privilege" of being pro-life then?

Choosing not to kill innocent human beings in the womb, and instead defending their lives, is showing support for the most basic human right for those who cannot yet speak for themselves.

The Backstory:

But perhaps Faris, in attempting to challenge Jack's pro-life views, is unintentionally overlooking something a bit more personal to him.

What if Jack is pro-life because he was born eight weeks premature and spent time in a NICU after his mother's water broke and she was put on bedrest, and he knows that he, too, was once vulnerable — and that others fought to save him? Jack "gets to be pro-life" today because medical professionals valued his life and did all they could to ensure that he survived.

Jack was well cared-for because his parents and his medical providers valued his life, even though he was born needing a great deal of extra help to survive.

“My water broke in the middle of the night at seven months,” Faris told Redbook magazine in 2015. “We rushed to the hospital and they were able to halt active labor with magnesium.”

Despite this, Faris wasn't given an induced abortion; doctors ordered her to go on bed rest for four weeks to try to hold off delivery.

“But on the seventh day, I went into labor again,” she said. “I was in denial. For hours I was like, ‘I’m just having indigestion.'

“Chris and I were so scared, but then Jack came out and, even though he was so tiny, he looked so good to us.”

Experiencing PPROM

Jack was born weighing three pounds, 10 ounces after Faris experienced premature preterm rupture of membranes (PPROM) and received proper treatment. Sadly, PPROM has been promoted by pro-abortion groups as a reason for a woman to have a later abortion, but induced abortion isn't the standard of care for treating PPROM.

Jack was a person at birth even though he hadn't reached full term. And he was that very same person in the womb, from the moment of fertilization.

"The day came when I got to take Jack home, and the first years were filled with doctor's appointments, five surgeries, physical therapy, a lot of laughter — because Jack was and is the most adorable cutest thing I could ever have imagined," Faris said.

Every parent should be given the chance to bring their baby home despite any struggles or odds against them, like Faris did.

Since Jack's birth, Faris has made efforts to help premature babies; she began serving as a board member of the Global Alliance to Prevent Prematurity and Stillbirth (GAPPS), which seeks ways to prevent premature births like she experienced with Jack.

Perhaps Jack is also pro-life because he also believes that, regardless of the difficult circumstance in which a child is conceived, every human being is made in the image of the God in whom he trusts, and no innocent human being should be intentionally deprived of his or her life by the will of another.

In several states, babies the same age Jack was then (and babies even older) can be legally aborted — killed by a lethal injection of feticide and delivered stillborn, or dismembered in the womb — and research proves that women who choose to abort late in pregnancy typically do so for reasons that aren't related to any sort of medical emergency.

Reality Check:

The real luxury and privilege sits with those in favor of abortion.

Men in favor of abortion frequently discuss abortion as a "woman's right," yet if that woman chooses to exercise her right to choose life and carry that child, a man may push or coerce her into abortion.

When an inconvenience or a diagnosis arises, pro-abortion parents can 'make the difficult choice' to have an abortion. As a result, they are often celebrated as exercising 'compassion' towards their vulnerable, innocent child... by ending that child's life via abortion.

Amid the nearly 50 years of Roe v. Wade, an expectation arose that parents would and should abort after receiving a diagnosis for their baby. Those who choose life in that situation are often treated as selfish and cruel.

How is holding such a position a "luxury?"

The Bottom Line:

Being pro-life means having the understanding that every single human being's life matters regardless of their age, location, developmental stage, financial status, health, or the circumstances of conception.
