“Baal and Moloch”? Get real. We all want to stop abortion. But when a guy goes off and gets all goofy about child sacrifice and like that, the whole cause gets tarred with the wacko brush.

It’s not about Baal. It’s about the tragic loss of potential people.

No, its not about a known god, its about a false god, the god of materialism, health, whatever. I’ve done a Bible study on God’s reaction to child sacrifice when King Manasseh of Israel did not believe God was real, so he sacrificed his firstborn to molech by burning him alive. God said He was not going to forgive the NATION of Israel for practicing this and had them invaded by the Babylonians. America is being invaded. Europe is being invaded. Africa is a mess. Today’s Babylonians are growing all over the world. Do you think its a coincidence that terrorism and abortion became prevalent together? Wacko? Only to those who don’t want to see.

Potential people? What exactly do you think gets aborted? Babies ARE people.

If you oppose abortion based on humanist and material considerations, that’s great! Ramesh Ponnuru in “The Party of Death” discusses all the human life issues from the standpoint of natural reason.

However, you have to understand that many people include the supernatural perspective in their lives.

You are entitled to your opinion. When abortionists, however, refer to this as a "sacrament," and when it reaches on the order of 50 million legal abortions in the U.S. alone since 1973, I think you must begin to consider an insidious spiritual dimension at work as orchestrated by the "Father of Lies and Prince of this world."

It’s not about Baal. It’s about the tragic loss of potential people.

You speak of these children as "potential people." Would you mind if I call you a potential corpse? That is an analogous proposition. Death is, after all, "the way of all flesh" and the countdown began the moment the ovum from your mom was fertilized by one sperm to begin the single, continuum of LIFE eventually culminating in your last breath...

Good weekend!
