Justice for Unborn

Abortion: Murder of the most Heinous Sort...
Thus says Yahweh, "For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon
and for four I will not revoke its punishment, because they ripped open the
pregnant women of Gilead in order to enlarge their borders." -- Am 1:13
And Hazael said, "Why does my lord [Elisha] weep?" Then he answered,
"Because I know the evil that you will do to the sons of Israel: their
strongholds you will set on fire, and their young men you will kill with the
sword, and their little ones you will dash in pieces, and their women with
child you will rip up." -- 2 Ki 8:11-13
To deliberately kill a child in the womb of a woman is murder of a particularly
vile order, and neither the legality, sterile surgical settings, nor that it is
done without killing the mother makes it any less so.
The fact that women choose to kill their own babies makes it even more
abominable, relating it also to the pagan practices of sacrificing their own
children to appease their gods. Everyone has their own "reasons," but in the end
it comes down to shedding innocent blood for one's own gain -- the universal
religion, the religion of Self.
It is a delusion to think that the God who knows every sparrow that falls from
the sky will not recompense the innocent blood of the innumerable millions of
murdered unborn by this generation. Their blood cries out for vengeance, and
Yahweh hears their pleas for justice.
