Bah, my stupid confirmation-prep class (which I hate, btw) ruined the anniversary for me.

The speaker talked about how the fetuses are "defenseless but still valuble lives" and that the millions of aborted "children" could be paying for his retirement in a few years.

And he compared fetuses to Jesus, saying that when he arrived he wasn't recognized or whatever. [/endrant]
