A Caller Regrets Her Abortion

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Here's Luanne in Morganton, North Carolina. Happy to have you on the program. Hello.

CALLER: Hello, Rush. Happy anniversary. I pray you never lose your passion. The reason for my call is we look at World War II and we revere how we defeated Hitler for the atrocities that he and Germany did to 6 million Jews, and yet I look at what America has been doing since 1973 to innocent lives which should be protected under our Constitution. You know, life, liberty.

RUSH: Right there, they're not. Supreme Court, 1973, is the reason.

CALLER: They denied life. They have been denying that first right here. And this conflict, it hurts me because, well, in 1979, I was in an abusive marriage, and I had to make the choice. That was before I became a Christian and before my eyes were opened to everything. But it still kills me every time I think back to the fact that I threw away a life that God had given to me, regardless of the circumstance.

RUSH: If I may stop you there, I read something yesterday related to this at National Review Online and it was written by Kathryn Jean Lopez, who is an executive there. She is devout Catholic. I know her. The piece that she wrote was, in a manner of speaking, a suggestion to everybody talking about this latest episode at Planned Parenthood, because one of the things she feared that a lot of people would not stop to consider is people like you who have had your heart broken over this.

It's a very, obviously, personal and shattering thing. It's like Norma, what was her name? The Roe in Roe v. Wade. She changed her mind. She was the plaintiff in the Supreme Court case and she changed her mind later. Norma McCorvey or something. She became a pro-life individual, and was wracked with guilt. Kathryn Jean Lopez was reminding everybody, "Keep in mind, as you talk about this, it's a very, very real and heartbreaking thing to a number of women who may realize later in their lives..."

It was a cautionary piece. "Don't forget that as you talk about this, you may be awakening very horrible feelings in the hearts and minds of a lot of people," and I thought it was an excellent point and you are illustrating it. I appreciate your call, Luanne. Thank you very much.

I’m one of those life-of-the-mother cases, and I regret my abortion. It was a horrible experience, and it never leaves me. There is no amount of grief counseling or therapy or belief in forgiveness that fixes it.

I am very very sorry. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

A woman wrote into oreilley last night confessing regret for her abortion. You could hear the pain in her words as he read her email on the air. It’s so very sad to me that those who claim to be women’s advocates set them up for the pain of a lifetime. What liars.

God bless you.

I will pray for you, people make mistakes and we are all sinners. Remember GOD hates sin, but he loves you. Join the fight against planed parenthood, and together we can save lives. GOD bless you.

Dear one,

If you've prayed the sinner's prayer, admitted you are a sinner in need of forgiveness, recognized your need of salvation and recognized Jesus Christ, who shed His precious blood to cover the sins of all mankind, asked Him to live in your heart forever, you ARE forgiven.

Now go and forgive yourself for holding on to our past sins, goes against what Jesus did for us all on that ugly cross and His life was in vain, if we say His forgiveness doesn't wash away our sins.

God tells us that as far as the East is from the West, He will remember our sins no more, that we are as white as snow.

On that day when you meet Him in Heaven, when He looks at you, He will only see Jesus Christ, the spotless Lamb, whom He chose to crush for our sins.

Also on that day when you see Christ for the first time, you will also be welcomed into heaven by that child who loves and is waiting for you, whom Christ welcomed the minute it left this cruel earth!

Please pray again and ask Jesus to remind you why He died and thank Him for His sacrifice so that you too, may be washed by His blood.

I am very sorry. My child's last day on this earth was 3-16-78. She has no birthday. I named her Mary Elizabeth, hence my screen name of mlizzy.

I have been forgiven for my dark decision [through Confession], but, of course, as you well know, the sorrow [the missing] never ends.

Our children are fine with Jesus, though, and they await us upon our arrival.

It's a tragedy the devil has tricked so many, but to this day, of course, he continues.

You may wish to ask your sweet child how you can help. I'm forever asking Mary Elizabeth the same, and she does answer. =)

Again, I am sorry; God be with you ... ♥

Yours was the only legitimate reason for this procedure, and my heart bleeds for you as well as the millions of other women who do it for less legitimate reason. You know where your hope is, and you know there is forgiveness, the pain notwithstanding. And you know you have friends, those you’ve met and just voices on the web, that you can talk to and who understand.
