Sanctity of Life

President George W. Bush once said, "All human life is a gift from our creator that is sacred, unique and worthy of protection. On National Sanctity of Human Life Day, our country recognizes that each person, including every person waiting to be born, has a special place and purpose in this world. The most basic duty of government is to protect the life of the innocent. My administration has been committed to building a culture of life by vigorously promoting adoption and parental notification laws, opposing federal funding for abortions overseas, encouraging teen abstinence and funding crisis pregnancy programs. The sanctity of life is written in the hearts of all men and women. On this day and throughout the year, we aspire to build a society in which every child is welcome in life and protected in law. We also encourage more of our fellow Americans to join our just and noble cause. History tells us that with a cause rooted in our deepest principles and appealing to the best instincts of our citizens, we will prevail." 


This taking of life, so carelessly and maliciously, is a crime against God. He gives us the ability to bring life into this world, but we seem to misuse it so we can work on our ability of taking life instead. Why would anyone want to take life from someone who has no voice and can't fight back? That's just pathetic.


This might make you realize the severity of this massacre:


_Every year, about 42 million babies are aborted worldwide. That's 115,000 abortions EVERY DAY. 
_52% of these abortions are from women under the age of 25.
_64% of abortions are from never-married women.
_A baby is aborted every 22 seconds, in the United States ALONE.
_51 million babies have been aborted in the U.S. since 1963. That's the same number as the number of people living in Florida, California, and Texas combined. 
_93% of all abortions are due to inconvenience, 6% are because of medical reasons, and 1% is due to rape.


The term for supporting abortion is considered to be 'pro-choice' but it's not really a choice option. The baby that's being put up for abortion doesn't have a choice to live or be cold heartedly thrown away. You wouldn't want to be killed with no chance of surviving at all, would you?


Think about it. Seriously.
