Killing of unborn babies is a terrible ‘choice’
N/A
Dec. 11, 2010 11:17 pm
The word abortion is often misused; abortion is the removal of a dead baby. Who can be against abortion? A dead baby should be removed.
Aborticide, however, is the destruction of a living person in the womb. When people talk about “choice,” they never mention aborticide.
Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal has expressed support for a woman's “right to choose.” Choose what?
Choose the cruelest child abuse; to be the mother of a dead baby; to cover up their sin; to liberate the father; to make a mistake that can never be erased; to choose a doctor who is a mass killer; to shed innocent blood; to discriminate based on age and size; to destroy two lives; to murder for convenience; to reap tragic consequences such as breast cancer?
Are these not the choices Sen. Gronstal champions?
Their poor “choice” is the killing of a living person with its own DNA, an expected birthday and a future. Remember our state slogan: “Iowa - A Place To Grow.”
