Notably, responses to this post mostly show very little human compassion.
The woman in the story was raped. She was counseled and she chose a second trimester abortion. Wrong, yes. Very wrong.
But the live birth of her son, and the subsequent death of her child made her realize how wrong she was to make the choice she made.
In this instance I will leave the passing of condemnation to God, and advise that all of you do the same.
Use the time it would take to express your disgust at her choice, to pray for the soul of the child, and to seek the wisdom of God in regards to how best end similar occurrences. We have the advantage of understanding that abortion is wrong. She now has that understanding, and while her penance and her sin will haunt her for the rest of her life, adding our own condemnations accomplishes nothing to help, or to bring her to a closer understanding with God.
Is the operative word NUTT?
Campassion for the child, and this choice was given
to her by the state. Time this choice was taken away.
Counseled by killers. Compassion for the child.
Rape does not constitute murder.
If she was raped, then why didn't she report it immediately and get medical attention, such as a D & C or morning after pill? I will pray for the child, but as far as she is concerned, I have no sympathy for her, she knew exactly what she was doing.
