Opinion: Abortion is America’s Shame: Dead Baby under the Christmas Tree
Catholic Online ^ | 12/16/09 | Deacon Keith Fournier

Posted on 12/16/2009 3:57:47 AM PST by tcg

31 year-old Ruby Lee Medina and her 37-year-old accomplice Javier Gonzalez are being held on “abuse of corpse and tampering with evidence” charges in Texas. Let’s see what happens. The case is no different than the Skinner case. The “super right” to decide whether to kill a child in the womb seems to trump every other true right such as the Right to Life. Cases such as these two reveal the fangs on the evil face of legal abortion on demand in our Nation. The Senate will soon pass legislation which, in the name of “health care”, will allow our tax dollars to fund the killing of children in the womb through surgical dismemberment and chemical destruction. Every procured abortion is the taking of an innocent human life, the killing of our neighbor in the first home of the whole human race. ...

As we prepare to celebrate the birth of a child who was born in a manger because there was no room for Him in the Inn, another child was killed before he or she could join us for Christmas. This killing was willful and intentional. It was done by his/her mother through a self ingested deadly chemical weapon which she swallowed. This little baby was delivered dead, wrapped in a box and placed under a Christmas tree. When we hear or read of such horrors we still react. That is because there is still some shred of conscience left in us. If we begin to fund this practice with tax dollars, perhaps even that last remaining shred will disappear.

“Authorities allege a south Texas couple put an aborted 7-month-old fetus in a gift box under a Christmas tree after trying to flush the remains down a toilet. Thirty-one-year-old Ruby Lee Medina and 37-year-old Javier Gonzalez are jailed on abuse of corpse and tampering with evidence charges."Abortion has become America’s Shame. The Dead Baby under the Christmas tree cries out for justice and mercy. Abortion is not health care because killing is not healing.

America’s shame?

Huh? I don’t quite get that extrapolation. While there are things that are legitimately ‘America’s shame’ (like the popular culture in general), this clearly was an act of two very stupid individuals and not indicative of the entire population - or any of our institutions.

It isnt only America’s shame. Abortion has become the method of chice for birth control all around the world.

The excuse that it’s up to the woman who’s body the child is dwelling in, has become a license to kill.

It happens 1.4 million times a year in this country.

The only difference is that they don't put the child's remains under the Christmas tree.

To call that a "national shame" does not even begin to describe it.

Abraham Lincoln once said, "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just." God is still just.

It’s a horror and a shame endorsed by 2/3 of the American people, all of whom have themselves been born!

God is just, but the American people no longer tremble but glorify in their sin and the popular culture.

I’m talking about the baby in a gift box under the Christmas tree. Don’t emphasize the baby under the Christmas tree in the headline if you think it is beside the point.

Abortions have been going down for the past 20 years and people, generally, are much less approving of it. This particular incident is rare enough that it made the news.
