Fifteen years before abortion was legal in America, around 85 percent of illegal abortions were done by “reputable physicians in good standing in their local medical associations.”*

This is an argument I’ve heard a number of times throughout the years: “Babies will go to heaven anyway, so abortion isn’t so bad—in fact, it’s actually in the child’s ultimate best interests.” 

Recently reunited with my husband who had just returned after abandoning me for eight months with no intent to return, I believed that the Lord truly did desire to restore unto us “the years the locusts have eaten.” Trust was an issue, of course, but I desired more than anything a strong marriage that would one day be a beautiful testimony to other struggling newlyweds.

Animal studies have provided the best information as to what happens in response to the use of hormonal birth control products. 

If you are laboring under guilt for what you didn’t even know—that the birth control pill can sometimes cause abortions—then ask yourself, “have I confessed to God my ignorance and sin, if that’s what it was?”

I contacted my pastor about using a bulletin insert regarding Sanctity of Human Life Sunday. He responded by saying “the Lord has called us to keep things simple, and focus on the Bible.” How would you respond to this?

Several people have already asked about my response to the passage of the Health Care Reform Bill and its inclusion of abortion. Yes, I am deeply concerned about its effect on unborn children. However, even though this bill has passed, the righteous cause of the unborn is not over. 

First, most women who have championed abortion have little or no knowledge of its eugenic purpose. It was originally championed by Margaret Sanger and others (including Hitler) through “birth control” means.

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.”
