Ok those of us that came out to support the Pro Life march about a month ago and are fighting against FOCA should see the all of a sudden media stories of Mom Octo and Boy 13 is pure propaganda from the mainstream media to try and say hey these stories are proof that the Pro Life supporters in our country are fanatics.
Think about it. Two really far far out of the typical style of Procreation/Marraige media stories crowd the headlines and now lets countdown to the Pro Choice FOCA supporters blamining these odd stories as the Pro Life Movements fault.
I agree with you that the media will use these stories against us in the Pro-Life movement. However, while these stories may not be common, they certainly are not rare. I knew of several 14 and 15 year old girls who became pregnant at my daughters school. My wife has worked with disadvantaged children for many years, including a stint in the inner-city. Trust me, it’s not that uncommon. I really don’t have an answer as to how we should respond to these type of stories. This is just my opinion, but all of our problems boil down to a lack of morals and our turning away from God. I am not trying to be preachy, but until we get back on a good moral and spiritual foundation, most anything we as a nation do to correct problems like these will probably be futile. Abortions are evil, we should do all we can to prevent them. But, they are merely a symptom of our deeper spiritual sickness. We need to attack the spiritual darkness as well, they are the root of our problems. JMHO -—JM
Excellent observations!
