Why Is Abortion Still An Issue?
A comment I wrote on the last thread that I thought I’d elevate:
Abortion is still an issue because it is legalized murder. You believe that life begins at conception, then abortion ends that life. That is one reason why certain forms of birth control are avoided by my wife and me as well, because even the pill will occasionally end the life of a recently conceived embryo (baby).
You bring up several different issues, all of which are non-sequiters to the abortion is murder issue.
Abortion is a legalized holocaust of the unborn. Forty million babies have been legally slaughtered by a doctor and their own parents. Forty MILLION. Thousands of babies have died by the hands of a licensed doctor since this post was made.
And it needs to stop.
There are places in the world and there have been times past where a ruling class or those who rise up to rule decide that a class of persons has fewer human rights than others, and has carried out genocide against that class of persons. It happened recently in Rwanda, it happened in Stalin’s Russia, and it happens RIGHT NOW in the USA.
If my neighbor has a gun to my head, I really don’t think debates over whether his clothes match matter much, and likewise as long as this horrible atrocity continues in our nation I don’t think there is any other issue that compares in proportion.
And the only way it will stop is if we stop voting into office those who refuse to use that power to stop it.
