Sounds like something out of China or North Korea
This is a very sad tale indeed :-(
What have we come to? Where are we going to wind up if our moral compass continues to spin out of control?
God help us.
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be (Psalm 139:13-16).
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked (Psalm 82:3-4).
Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay each person according to what he has done? (Proverbs 24:11-12).
Heavenly Father,
Please forgive the wickedness of our country. Bring us in line to Your Word, Your Will. Cause a stirring of hearts and minds to vote for the Sanctity of Life and God-fearing leaders who will stand for truth and justice.
In Jesus Name, Amen.
They could always starve and dehydrate her to death. Precedent has been set.
****On several occasions, Elisa has left her group home for hours or days at a time to engage in sexual activity with men at a local truck stop.***
Who knew this and when? If true, this is just one more example of how we are a demoralized and immoral people. God forgive us.
Who are they to decide?
Buck v. Bell 2
Now the government is stepping in determining whether or not a woman should have an abortion against the wishes of her family and herself? Frightening.
Some years ago we met a young family with two daughters, one was normal, while the other was severely mentally retarded like that. She had the mind of a small child, but was a maturing young woman.
The problem was, she was gorgeous and with a perfect developing figure. You couldn’t tell by merely looking at her.
Her mother said that she wished she at least looked retarded or something so that people would know.
I saw a sad future for her when her parents are gone.
A department is made up of individuals and individuals wrote and filed this report. Individuals want to have this baby killed. Name them. Don't let them hide behind the anonymity provided by layers of bureaucracy. Name the judge that would even hear this petition rather than immediately dismiss it with prejudice.
Maybe Kevin Schiller the director of "social services" for Washoe country could be asked what his departments compelling interest is in this case. Maybe Terri Humes the Fiscal Director for social services could be asked if their budget is expansive enough to cover a court case not clearly in their mandate.
