What Is The Moral Cost Of
Abortion?
| We weep for mistreated animals and sigh when we see a
dead cat on the road. We decry murder and injustice. We comfort couples who have
had miscarriage. But we ignore the cries of our fellow
humans who are chopped up like fruit in a blender, burned out of the womb by
acid, and have their brains
sucked out even moments before birth. What have we become?
This is perhaps the most critical issue facing our
country. Our housing market will not recover. Our economy will not grow. We are
close to the tipping point. Unless we turn this trend of death to life our
country is headed to a slow, painful, descent. |
What is the Real Issue? Humans
from conception are uniquely
valuable because of their very form and existence. Not because
some deem them as valuable.
Established in Creation: Genesis 1 & 2 (excerpts)
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The
earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface
of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface
of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there
was light. God saw that the light was good; and God separated
the light from the darkness. God called the light day, and the
darkness He called night. […] Then God said, "Let the earth
bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and
creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and
it was so. God made the beasts of the earth after their kind,
and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on
the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good. Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to
Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and
over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the
earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created
him; male and female He created them. God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and
multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the
fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every
living thing that moves on the earth
Echoed in our Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are
created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty
and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights,
Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of
Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of
the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new
Government, laying its foundation on such principles and
organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most
likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Established in Medicine and Law
An infant inside or outside of the womb is a fully formed
and unique person and NOT the mother’s body. You cannot take
your own life or dismember yourself in any state and most
countries. Why do we allow the willful murder of these
defenseless people?
How often do we consider the ‘Image of God’
when we allow...
- Abortion
- Murder
- Dangerous products
- Misleading statements
- Drug abuse
- Prostitution
- Slavery
- Common disdain for others
And what about the
65,539,264 or more individuals now missing from
our country?
It equals the entire population of the 129 largest US cities.
Their income would be equal to 17% of all taxes or 40% of our
Gross Domestic Product, and would occupy more than 15,494,775 houses and apartments.
Factoring in chemical abortions the number jumps to more
than 163 million or the entire population of our nine most
populous states.
What cannot be calculated?
- The cascading loss of creativity, energy,
and innovation.
- The staggering toll on the women and men
who choose to abort their babies.
If you really saw every person as being made in the image of
God,
how would it change your behavior?
No Matter How You View Abortion it is Bad News for the Unborn
and the Born.
What are we really doing?
Destroying human life. |
