A Letter From the Future

Dear Mom:

Can you believe it is 2023 already? I am still writing “22” on everything. Seems like yesterday I was sitting in first grade celebrating the century change!

I know we haven’t really chatted since Christmas. Sorry. Anyway, I have some difficult news, and I really didn’t want to talk about it face-to-face.

Ted’s had a promotion, and I should be up for a hefty raise this year if I keep putting in those crazy hours. You know how I work at it. Yes, we are still struggling with the bills.

Abortion Providers comment on whether abortion is the taking of a life

Many abortion providers cannot escape the fact that abortion is the taking of a life—the killing of a baby.

“I have the utmost respect for life; I appreciate that life starts early in the womb, but also believe that I’m ending it for good reasons.…So yes, I end life, but even when it’s hard, it’s for a good reason.” - Cheryl Alkon, “Confessions of an Abortion Doctor,” Boston Magazine

Response To Peter Singer’s Ethics

Peter Singer, the Princeton professor, wrote in his ethics textbook, “The life of a fetus is of no greater value than the life of a nonhuman animal at a similar level of rationality, self-consciousness, awareness, capacity to feel, etc.”

Is Abortion Really a Women’s Rights Issue?

Kate Michelman, former president of NARAL, says: “We have to remind people that abortion is the guarantor of a woman’s... right to participate fully in the social and political life of society.” But a pregnant woman can fully participate in society. And if she can’t, isn’t the solution changing society rather than killing children?

Isn’t it true that at the time it was passed, most evangelicals were silent in response to Roe v. Wade? So doesn’t that give doubt to their sincerity in opposing abortion now?

Yes. In the three decades I’ve been involved in the prolife movement, I have never once heard someone make the claim that evangelicals mobilized in direct response to Roe v. Wade. On the contrary, many of us have publicly bemoaned the fact that we did NOT do so. We were several years late coming out of the gates.

Do you oppose abortion because you are a conservative or for political reasons?

I am liberal on some issues and conservative on others, and I don’t care a bit which label falls on me. I am seeking to follow Christ, and it doesn’t matter if I sometimes sound Democratic and other times Republican. As for abortion, I oppose it for one simple reason: that it is the killing of innocent children.

What is your response to the 2008 Democratic Party platform on abortion?

Substitute “a woman’s right to choose a safe and legal abortion” with “a man’s right to rape a woman” or “a white person’s right to enslave black people” or “a Nazi’s right to kill Jews” and you will understand how repugnant this statement is to a person who believes that both Scripture and science show us that unborn children are, in fact, children. (And it is every bit as repugnant when I hear Republicans present this as their position.)

Do you think the willingness of both political parties’ leaders to acknowledge the moral implications and aspects of abortion are an offering of good will and common ground?

To say that the acknowledgement of the moral implications and aspects of abortion are “an offering of good will and common ground” sounds nice, but William Wilberforce and his fellow abolitionists were constantly told this by those who wanted to massage slavery and tweak it here and there and maybe improve the conditions a little on the slave ships.
