I actually have a bit of a problem with understanding the opposite of 'pro-'
In one sense, you have pros and cons. But in many other words: profession, protect... there's no opposite word that makes sense.

That's because those words don't use "pro-" as a prefix.

Also, I think "ante-" and "post-" can also work as opposites.

Sarcasm? :paranoid:

con- means "together" or "with" or something like that. I don't know what the opposite of that would be...
dis- , maybe ?

adv.

In opposition or disagreement; against: debated the issue pro and con.

pro = good/positive point
con = bad/negative point.
