It breaks my heart. How many grandmothers were changing minds as they saw their daughters get married and pregnant and looked at those sonograms and realized this IS life. And were going to counsel their grandchildren and nieces and others not to get pregnant or ever find themselves needing an abortion.
So while trying to save one life, I truly think that other lives of the unborn are jeopardized now. The movement has lost ground. And so has compassionate conservatism.
The democrats are gleeful.
That seems lost on a lot of people on this forum -- they have allowed emotions to control everything they think without looking at a larger picture. Today was the clincher when they started praising Jesse Jackson as the hero. No one wanted to see Terri be denied her right to life but some folks on here have been way over the top and wanting her saved at all costs including losing other lives to save her. Don't understand people like that!
Terri will soon be dead, that's a given. How many people who are wringing their hands today, are EVER going to help a PVS patient in their community in the future?
And when the pro-choice people talk about how important it is that young women have this choice, I ALWAYS wonder about those poor young girls. IF abortion is about money and power, then women are selling out the younger women. Because who in their right mind would want a young woman to go through the pain and suffering of abortion, to live with that forever? God forgives everything if you come before HIM, but it's often hard for these women to forgive themselves.
A pox on Randall's house. He has chosen poorly. I hope he re-learns about the DEPTH of God's forgiveness and love. He has forgotten MUCH.
Like you aren't. Or are you saving that for the actual death (music playing, flowers smelling, tabby cats frolicking . . . )
He who saves one life saves the entire world.

The "movement" that can stand by and allow an innocent woman to be starved and dehydrated is neither defined by compassionate or conservative.
