Infanticide

There was a time when I simply accepted abortion. Not condoned it, but I accepted that it was there and had been there since before I was alive and that it would probably always be there. It just was. I thought there was nothing I could do about it; why then, should I get worked up over it?

I was wrong.

Hopefully everyone who might possibly read this knows about the atrocities that have recently come to light concerning Kermit Gosnell and his abortion clinic. I can't get into those details, even if I wanted to. I shut down and start crying and praying and crying and praying.

And even when that happens, I start to hate myself. Because that is what it took for me to react against abortion as I always should have been. It took THAT - beheadings and severed feet being kept in jars, like sick trophies. It took a monster who didn't even hide behind the the laws of men; it took the brutal murder of over 100 babies. There is no punishment that humanity could assign to that man that would be a just recompence for his evil. Their blood is crying out to God, like Abel's did.

There was a time when I got tired of seeing things about abortion on Facebook. There was a time when I wanted it to be quiet, because I thought there was nothing we could do about it.

It doesn't matter - it SO doesn't matter - if I can or can't do anything about it right now. I can't be faced with something so WRONG, so hideous, so sinful and not say something. I was wrong. I was wrong to sigh at the people who inevitably brought it up, and I was wrong to not lend my voice, my money, my time, and my talents to bolstering them up and fighting for those who are silenced before they have a chance to cry.

I was wrong. To all those who have always been at the place where I have finally come, I'm sorry. I should have been here all along. I should have been fighting with you.

Abortion, in any form, in any way, at any time is murder. Those are children, precious little ones who ought to be loved and held and kissed.

Abortion is so evil; it's not just murder (as if that wouldn't be bad enough). It's vicious and excruciating and cruel.We take great care in executing serial killers. We make it painless. We do the same for animals that are dying. What do we do with our babies? We literally tear them limb from limb, or administer drugs that give them an agonizing death. Unwanted dogs get better treatment than unwanted children.

Murder is bad enough, but torturous, disfiguring murder? They're children. They're precious. They should know warmth and love. They should know safety and security in the arms of their parents. And I wish I could save them.
