This thread is boring in many ways, yet so very critical to more fully appreciate the magnitude of the escalating war on the sanctity of life.
The sickening fact is that abortion is an ACTIVE part of US Government policy -- OUR GOVERNMENT.
This last election could be a good lesson of what might happen when enough people are awakened to the issues that the values voters care about. But STILL not nearly enough people are engaged to defend and vote for REAL CHANGE to defend the sanctity of LIFE. Pamphleteering during election time IS NOT SUFFICENT.
THE ONLY WAY to turn this around is with comprehensive sanctity of life education for all people, beginning when they are very young. Age appropriate material for kindergarten age and up, will be necessary.
But we cannot wait for Christian schools to begin this. It is the FIRST obligation of Parents to teach their children the Faith and in this age sanctity of life must be a MAJOR part.
Please read THE MISSING KEY OF THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT and the Education Page and start with your family right away.

Hey now! I resemble that remark!!

This is very true. Parents have a great responsibility to teach and train their children in many aspects of life and social issues. We can't and should not expect the church to be responsible for it, the church ought to merely be reinforcing what we have taught them at home the 6 days of the week when they are not in church. If the children are not homeschooled then it is vital to talk with the kids about what they are hearing. It is likely that parents may need to unindoctrinate their children on things they've heard or been taught at their school.
A few years ago my stepson lived with us and I asked him if there were any books they used at school that they were 'not' allowed to bring home. Yes there were. When I contacted the school about having him bring the book home so I could look it over, well they didn't want that to happen. I had to pitch a big fit in order to see the book. I don't really remember what the content was but the point is that kids may not know 'what' they should tell their parents and that's why it's important for us to initiate the conversations with them and ask them questions.
