Birth or Not abortion site - Real or joke?

Life Site News accounts that what 30-something Minnesota couple Alisha and Pete Arnold want most in life is to start a family. Their unborn baby is at seventeen weeks. Yet the Arnolds state they’re divided as to how to proceed, so they’ve put up a site called Birth or Not (BirthOrNot.com). The Arnolds state they would like the planet to assist them to choose whether they should give birth or have an abortion.

What people want to know about Birth or Not

As outlined by the Ministry of Truth blog, Pete and Alisha Arnold just wanted to make a political statement with Birth or Not birth. They have no intention of getting an abortion though. The first possible sign is a statement on BirthOrNot.com that reads "For the first time, your vote on the topic of abortion can make a difference." There had been one more sign from Pete Arnold. Life Site News story quotes him saying, "We don't see a difference between this and what politicians or supporters do in regards to campaigning."

Dates and domains not matching

The rhetoric sounds political and impersonal to the Ministry of Truth, but the investigation doesn’t stop at judging appearances. The Church of Global Warming was a climate change denier website connected to Birth or Not which had been shown in Google Analytics. Ministry of Truth explains the website is owned by Pete and Alisha Arnold. It is very right-wing conservative too.

There is some really hard evidence. The calendar dates are used for this. Might 17, 2010 had been when the Whois record for BirthOrNot.com had been registered, reports the Ministry of Truth. However, Pete and Alisha Arnold must have conceived in late July or early August, as they claim their unborn fetus is 17 weeks old today, Nov. 19. Thus, Birth or Not had been first registered nine to 10 weeks before conception.

The poll for Birth or Not at present

Currently, 80.51 percent of poll respondents favor birth, when 19.49 percent want the Arnolds to abort. December 7 can be "two days before the last day they could get an abortion" reports Life Site News, and can be when Pete and Alisha Arnold close the poll.
