It’s been visible in the distance for quite some time. Peter Singer was in favor of legalizing it for the month immediately after birth. “Bioethicist” Daniel Callahan justified it in cases of birth defects. And now Virginia Governor Ralph Northam is arguing that infanticide will be legitimized by a bill before the Virginia legislature, which he supports:
When asked about the controversial late term abortion bill presented in Virginia’s House of Delegates this week, Governor Ralph Northam said a fully developed child born in the third trimester would be kept alive, but the physician and mother would get to discuss and decide whether to take its life or not.“If a mother is in labor…the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and mother,” Northam said on WTOP’s “Ask The Governor” segment this morning.
There has never been anything like this in a Christian-Enlightenment civilization. There can be no tolerating it. There is no place for it in a country that recognizes a human being’s right to life.
But that’s the point: To eliminate the right to life as recognized in our founding documents and our laws. Were the right to life undone, the government’s power would be absolute. There would be nothing the agents of the State would be forbidden to do to us.
Conservatives predicted this outcome of abortion on demand in the Sixties, well before Roe v. Wade reached the Supreme Court. They were mocked and ridiculed as doom-shouters.
This is it, Gentle Reader. We’re at the edge of the abyss now.
Pray.
As I said (sorry for the self-reference but I also posted on this today) and someone else commented... if they're willing to, coldly and casually as though discussing ordering pizza, kill an infant who has done no actual wrong - just what will they be willing to do to us, who stand in the way of their worldy Socialist utopia?
ReplyDeleteA: They'll do anything, including mass murder. Because we, standing in their way, ARE "evil".
I can't... I just can't imagine... the baby is THERE, breathing, possibly crying, and you'll discuss killing it????

Need a hillbilly Grandma with a shotgun.
ReplyDeleteMy twin sister and I barely survived being drowned in the toilet like excess litters.
Too young to fight, but Mom's birthday is next week. I do not mind so much.
The rest that witnessed are gone and the paperwork sort of adds up.
I think sometimes the hardest part is having the bones broken before the start.
Grandma passed last year and now there is just what is.
It was time, long ago, to resist. We have NO reason for acquiescing with evil.
ReplyDeleteJust as a point of self-interest, if they can cold-bloodedly kill a cute little baby, what's to stop them from killing old, "useless eaters" like us?
If you won't act from principle, at least act from self-interest.
As you know, I've long saw this day coming. And worse to come.
ReplyDeleteBut I've given up writing anew on it. Lack of interest was disheartening and I know you've had to experience that too. It's good at least one of us works at it regularly.
