Reply to "The Debate -- A Clear Winner!"

Hi Skeptic:

In my original post, I stated, "Or, perhaps, you say that because we want the infanticide, abortion, stopped -- that is depriving people who want to kill their babies. You are right we want that mass murder stopped. Killing anyone should be illegal -- whether it be an unborn baby or an adult. That is not depriving anyone of their freedom. That is stopping them from taking the freedom to live from a helpless baby."

And, you respond, "Curious, Bill: A 12 year old is the victim of incest and is pregnant. Is it "murder" to abort this baby?"

Any young girl who is the victim of incest or rape will carry that scar for the rest of her life. Should society add an additional scar to her burden -- by telling her she should kill the baby?

It is a proven fact that women, well at least most women (we will not count those who use abortion as a form of birth control) -- carry that psychological scar with them throughout life.

Picture that young girl -- maybe fifteen years later, married, and she has another child. As she watches her young child, a child she so adores, run around, playing, happy, healthy -- don't you think that her mind plays with the thought, "I wonder what my first child would be like today -- if I had allow him/her to live?" Yes, that is a burden; a burden a twelve year old child should not have to shoulder.

My wife is a good example. In her first marriage in the Philippines, she had a baby, a little boy. The baby died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) when just a couple of months old. Today, Noel would be fifty -- and to this day, Dory still wonders about him, thinks about him, and tries to imagine what he would be like today if he had lived. Can you imagine her pain if she had been the cause of his death?

Who suffers the most, the baby or the mother? The baby suffers intense pain for a short while and then dies; going into the arms of Jesus Christ. The mother carries the pain with her the rest of her life. There are definitely two victims.

You ask if it is murder to kill an unborn child. Yes, but, today in America and in many other countries -- it is legal murder; no penalties -- except those carried by the mother in her soul, in her mind, in her heart -- maybe not now; but, most certainly in later years.

Skeptic, I pray that answers your question. I realize it is not the answer you were seeking; for you were hoping to back me, and all conservatives and Christians who believe the same, into a corner in your feeble attempt to paint our viewpoint as primitive and evil. It is not; for we support and believe that everyone, especially unborn infants who cannot speak for themselves -- deserve the same opportunity to experience life that you and I enjoy.

Let me add one closing thought. In my viewpoint, Sarah Palin stands head and shoulders above everyone else in this Presidential Race -- because she not only talks the talk about being Pro-Life; she definitely WALKS THE WALK. God bless her for her stance on protecting the life of unborn babies.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill
