It is no longer a rare event that a mother would kill her own born child.

Mother Teresa said to us:

“America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father’s role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts — a child — as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters”
And, in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being’s entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign.” (Mother Theresa — “Notable and Quotable,” Wall Street Journal, 2/25/94, p. A14)

“But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child - a direct killing of the innocent child - murder by the mother herself. And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love, and we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts. Jesus gave even his life to love us. So the mother who is thinking of abortion, should be helped to love - that is, to give until it hurts her plans, or her free time, to respect the life of her child. The father of that child, whoever he is, must also give until it hurts. By abortion, the mother does not learn to love, but kills even her own child to solve her problems. And by abortion, the father is told that he does not have to take any responsibility at all for the child he has brought into the world. That father is likely to put other women into the same trouble. So abortion just leads to more abortion. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching the people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion. “

Please don’t kill the child. I want the child. Please give me the child. I am willing to accept any child who would be aborted, and to give that child to a married couple who will love the child, and be loved by the child. From our children’s home in Calcutta alone, we have saved over 3,000 children from abortions. These children have brought such love and joy to their adopting parents, and have grown up so full of love and joy!”

February 1997 - National Prayer Breakfast in Washington attended by the President and the First Lady. “What is taking place in America,” she said, “is a war against the child. And if we accept that the mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another.”

“Any country that accepts abortion, is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what it wants.”

“It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.”

The fact that this house of God was not of your particular sect does not make it any less a house of God.

How do you know?

Sickening. The sad thing is that you don’t even realize just how closely your own thinking parallels that of the run of the mill jihadi.

Looks like a “Scott” only comes around once every 12 years or so. How unsatisfying that must be, for a “pro first-degree murder” hero like you.

He seems intent on proving Christopher Hitchens right - that if his rantings weren’t cloaked in religious garb no one would give it an ounce of regard. Such a person is either selling pencils from a cup on the corner wearing a placard, laughed at and ridiculed, or hauled off by people in white coats.

“The fact that Tiller can no longer kill our futures however required a heroic act. That was the act of Mr Roeder.”

Murder is not heroic, no matter the results.

I’m pretty sure Mother Theresa never said “Shoot the doctor,” much to the disappointment of some the morons on this thread.

IIRC, John J O’Connor said he had a message for any lunatic out there just itching to shoot an abortion doctor: “Shoot me instead.”

I can think of lots of “murders” that are immortalized and praised...even of a certain US President in 1865 among some quarters. (I do not)

Look...I don’t see the what happened to Tiller as murder. Homicide yes not murder. Big difference.

I’d actually like to hear you do that sometime. Just to stretch my thought process, so to speak. :)

ok... I’m sorry to pick your comment for my response, but I can’t stand it anymore. I know I maybe justifying vigilanism here, but so be it.

Scott Roeder had the will to do what must have been done. There is no reason why a murder like Tiller should evade the law and continue his murder. Now, regardless of that ideal, The trial was reprehensible. The judge did not allow a charge of “voluntary manslaughter”, which under Kansas law, as I understand it, could be sought, to be raised. In that case, where there is a legitamate but unreasonable moral belief (like Roeder’s) to take out someone from society because of the heinous physical harm they have done to society, the conviction should not have been of first degree (cold-blooded) murder. This was morally motivated.

To say that this man should be treated like a normal murderer is just plain wrong. the only way to make this trial an unbiased one is to resolve the issue of late-term abortion, which, in several states, is ILLEGAL. The local courts were the wrong place for this trial.

I am glad Roeder killed Tiller. It was about time. He has now saved thousands of unborn children. This trial should be appealed and the state (or jury selectors) sued. I will continue to support Roeder.
