The Murder of the Innocents

Is it appropriate, with the holiday weekend, to bring this up? I think I will anyway. Fay Voshell has a piece in the American Thinker today entitled A Right to Kill which brings up the moral issue of having an absolute right to abort babies on the say so of the mother alone. Please go read the entire piece, though it will sicken you.

A quote:
A great lesson is to be gained from the revolting examples given above; namely that there is a strict adherence to a pro-abortion ideology which demands the absolute "moral" principles of abortion on demand must be adhered to, no matter what. Rush Limbaugh has been much vilified for describing abortion as a sacrament of the deeply religious cult of the Left, but he is not far from the mark. The fact of the matter is that no horrors, no matter how often they are uncovered and documented, appear to be too great for the pro-abortion crowd to give up their core belief that a woman is entitled to abort her baby at any stage of pregnancy.
After citing the cruel, and inhuman way in which the murdered fetuses are treated by abortion doctors, as garbage to be cleaned up and put in trash bags, Voshell goes on to cite the "unintended" consequences to the living:

-That females would be aborted in greater numbers than males,

-That cases of incest would be swept under the rug by getting rid of the evidence,

-That the father-to-be would be kicked out of the decision loop because only the mothers would have a say.

Interestingly, Voshell makes a case that even the execution of capital murderers may be immoral, something that I am open to, but have not seen a convincing argument for yet. But many of the same people who argue for abortion on demand at the same time argue for elimination of the death penalty. How can this logically be?

  1. Thank you for posting my article and for your kind comments. However, I am wondering how you came to the conclusion I am against captial punishment? What argument did I make that made you come to this conclusion? The reason I ask is because I truly do not want to be misunderstood. Again, thank you and all the best.
