America's Two-Faced Stance towards the Unborn!

When it comes to the rights and liberties of the unborn child in our nation, America has two faces. One face says it's legal to kill an unborn child, with the expecting mother's consent; the other face says it's illegal to take the life of an unborn child. Much like the famous villain Two-Face in the Batman comics, the government of the United States is having a hard time deciding just when to determine that an unborn child deserves the right to live.

In Oklahoma there is a bill before the state legislature that would allow a pregnant mother to use deadly force to protect the life of her unborn child. It seems to me that this is a recognition by the Oklahoma legislature that an unborn child deserves the right to life. We also have other laws in the United States that allows a person who murders a pregnant mother and it also causes the death of the yet unborn child, they can be charged with double-murder. Doesn't that imply that life begins at conception and the unborn child has the right to life?

If a person can be charged with double murder for killing an unborn child and a mother can use deadly-force to protect the "life" of the child within her womb, then why do let mothers make a decision to kill the unborn child because it the conception was "an accident" or the fetus has been determined to have a "birth defect" of some kind, or the child will cause a "disruption to the life of the mother?" Why do allow doctors to perform an abortion when any other person who causes the death of an unborn child to be charged with murder? Why do allow agencies such as Planned Parenthood, even suggest that the termination of the life of an unborn child is even OK at all?

Is the only difference between a murderer and a mother/doctor who chooses to abort a unborn child's life, is the signed consent of the mother to terminate a life. That my friends is a very fine line between plain murder and conspiracy to commit murder. What about the rights of the father? He helped create that child and it is as much his child as it is the mother's. Doesn't he have a right to decide if child should die or not?

Life is Life, and every American, born or unborn, deserves the Right of Life! Protect it!

"Improving the quality of life" at the expense of the life of others.

President Obama, backed by Speaker of the House (Nancy Pelosi), has once again allowed federal dollars to be allocated to groups that perform abortions. (click here for an article over the newest Executive Order) I was really hoping President Obama would respect the rights of unborn American citizens. Speaker of the House, Pelosi, said this decision would give many women who are poor a chance to "improve the quality of their lives." Improving the quality of life at the expense of others I say. My quality of life would improve greatly if I just killed off a few people who bring down my quality of life; but that would be murder right?

What really disturbs me about the abortion issue is: We can charge a person with double murder for killing a pregnant mother and her unborn child. We can charge a person with murder for causing the death of an unborn child "without the consent of the mother, yet we recognize the purposeful choice to terminate the life of an unborn child, as long as the mother gives her consent to the procedure. What a two-faced nation we are!

I, for one, believed my children were alive when I heard their heartbeats and saw their moving forms on the sonogram. I believe that God gives us a soul at the point of conception, not at birth. I believe that allowing an abortion to take place is murder! It's my opinion and I am allowed to have it.

I do not agree with those who call themselves Christians, or any other person for that matter, who choose to bomb, harass, or otherwise harm those who choose to have an abortion. The choice to have an abortion is not an easy choice to make and many of those who do choose to have an abortion often feel much remorse and depression afterwards. Even the woman known as Roe in the famous Roe v. Wade case, feels terrible for what she chose to do. These women need love and support just like all the rest of us sinners! They do not need to be judged and hated like many of us choose to do.

I am just disappointed that President Obama and our Legislators are choosing to let tax dollars fund such a controversial procedure. Over 60% of the citizens of this nation believe abortion is wrong and yet our Congress and our current President are choosing to fund this procedure anyway. It is not the first time our elected leaders have chosen to ignore the wishes of the majority of its citizens.

Before you think I am just bad mouthing our new President. I do agree with him about closing our military base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
