Good Morning. Isn't 3:16am a little early to be thinking?:) Yes, it is ludicrous.

I agree with you both, that many don't want to think about it. If one stops and contemplates on it for any length of time, it gets uneasy. There are those (I've personally met some) that are totally pro-abortion. They don't view the unborn as children, but "invaders", "parasites", "something that leeches off the woman". Having asked the question; What is the difference between a baby about to born and one that is just seconds old? The baby just born is autonomous. Then I've asked what about viability? The answer I've gotten is it's irrelevant. Until the baby is seperate for the woman, the unborn baby does not deserve any protection, rights, or given human status. The child is a non-person.

It really is amazing to me, that someone's heart could be so cold and hardened to think that way. I struggle to grasp such a concept.

For those who claim to be Christian, here is a question to ponder. Who is Jesus? Was He any less our Savior before fertilization, at fertilization, as a zygote, embryo, fetus, at birth as His was crucified, dead, buried, resurrected and the day He assended? Jesus could have walked out of the desert as a 30 year old man, but He didn't. God sent him the same way we all come into the world, through growing in our mother's wombs. It is through that process that makes us human. So if God did not find pregnancy as being important and should be protected, then he wouldn't have created it, and He wouldn't have sent Jesus that process either.

Jesus is the Savior of the unborn as well. He gave His life, so that they could live. We need to remember that the unborn are His children to, and created them in His image as well.

Jesus told us to be in the world, but not of it. We must try to influence and change the world to know Jesus, but not to blend into it so that no one can see the difference. By embracing abortion we blend into what the world says is moral. For Jesus offended many because he spoke the truth and called sin, sin. But when He did so, it was in done in compassion and love. But even in love He said now sin no more. In other words, change your behavior. We must do the same. Love and have compassion for the girls and women who seek abortion, but still call abortion a sin.

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses.
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory.
Now and for ages upon ages. Amen

In Jesus' name I ask the Father to help us all to attain the heavenly goals that God has created us. And to keep us always in the presence of His Holy Spirit.
