“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)

And may it be, Merciful Father, that the soul of this Nation will one day be rid of this horror called Roe v Wade. May it be soon, O God, may it be soon, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, may it be soon. Amen ...

Amen to your prayer, Pegita, and many thanks for the wise words of Mother Theresa. She has described perfectly what this nation has wrought as a result of turning against the most innocent of God's creations. May His mercy be upon us. Your support of this thread is greatly appreciated.
