Yesterday while I was having lunch I turned on CNN for some up-to-date news...and I watch an interview between the news anchor and a journalist....seems the anchorwoman was asking some pointed questions about why religious people are having any say in the health care debate regarding abortion...it is, the anchor said, a medical procedure and so should be off-limits for church people who should respect church - state separation. Is this lady living in a cave somewhere, knocked unconcious by years of moral relativism?
So I wait for the guy's answer to her and all he says is Well, the church and religious leaders having always made their voice heard in society and in politics. Here's a guy living in the cave next door. Hello.......neither one of them mentioned that it might bother some people that this 'medical procedure' is killing a human being, an unborn life or, if you prefer, a live fetus. Come on, people! You may not agree as TV media folks but please at least acknowledge that this is not a 'medical procedure'. This is the issue over the value of a human life, made in the image of God, that is being 'aborted' - 'teminated' - killed. This is not having your appendix removed.
God help us all, including this writer, for cheapening human life. May God help us all to do/say something on behalf of the children.
