>Tell the hos to keep their legs crossed

That covers about half the problem. What should the studs be told to do?

>wonder why God just doesn’t step in and throw thunder and lightning down

Probably the same reason he doesn’t reach down and rescue those dying in the middle of a natural disaster.

“Southwestern Women’s Options, a notorious late-term abortion facility that kills unborn babies by shooting them through the heart with poison.”

Hell on earth is here.

I have family in Albuquerque...when I emailed my sister about the fake blood-spattering on the pro-life people, she said she’d be sure to vote.

Albuquerque is a place of retired government and military personnel and lots of immigrants...problem I see is voter apathy.

I think He is waiting for us to do something nationally.

Don’t know of any civilization that practiced human sacrifice that is still in existence.

God told Moses that if the Israelites did the same things the people of the promised land were doing, Israel would be invaded and judgment would come. king Manasseh did burn his son alive and he ended up in prison in babylon, where he repented and was allowed to return and he tore down all the alters. His great grandson, however, started up the practice again and Israel was invaded. The book of Lamentations is the story of God’s judgment. This was the only time in the Old Testament (Manasseh’s abomination) that the LORD would not forgive Israel and judgment came later.

It has been 40 years for the United States. Any doubts as to why we have the coming World economic collapse? Any doubts as to why Christians warn about the Great Tribulation? Because child sacrifice is now practiced all over the world. God is waiting for us to stop it and tear down the clinics.

“However, the LORD did not turn from the fierceness of His great wrath with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked Him. And the LORD said, “I will remove Judah also from My sight, as I have removed Israel. And I will cast off Jerusalem, this city which I have chosen, and the temple (house) of which I said, ‘My name shall be there’.”
“Surely at the command (mouth) of the LORD it came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; AND THE LORD WOULD NOT FORGIVE.” (All caps mine) 2 Kings 23: 26 & 27 and 24: 3 & 4

God gave free choice to human beings, and if they are not free to choose evil as well as good, they are not free. If God steps in and stops the evil whenever humans choose evil, then they do not actually have moral and mental freedom. Unfortunately mankind has consistently chosen evil. The Christian view, taken directly from Scripture, is that the Earth is the kingdom of the devil, and will not see real justice until Jesus returns and establishes His Kingdom here.

After the utter evil of World War II, one survivor of the Nazis said, “Tell me, where was God at Auschwitz?” And the answer came: “Tell me, where was man?” In other words, the evil is caused by man, and it is our task to fix it. If we do not, the judgement of God will someday come.

But this is no reason not to pray. The purpose of prayer is not to argue with God and make Him do what we want Him to do; the purpose of prayer is to accord our wills with His and form our souls as He wants. If you give up prayer because God doesn’t do exactly what you want Him to do when you want Him to do it, you’re treating Him like an ATM.

a lot of people are ignorant of what late term abortion even is.....and yet, show them a facebook pic of a little unborn baby at 7-8-9 months and they’re all oohing and ahhing.....do they even realize that a baby could be killed just minutes before it’s born?

In the 70’s the hippies took over the desert and open range with their communes and now their kids are in charge. Why would anyone be surprised?

People in Albuquerque never met an abortion they weren’t willing to fund.

Sad. I went to HS in ABQ in the 60’s and lived there for a while in the early 70’s. Beautiful state but politically, they might as well move to the northeast. Dumbasses!

Did the business community rally for the abortions as the people coming in for the popular procedurer “add to the economy”? Or it’s just that the New Mexicans see this as affirming their “sexual freedom.” It’s always been a largely poor, uneducated state.

Here in Albuquerque we saw:

The pro abortion forces going in force to the UNM campus, telling the students that this measure was just the first step to ban all abortion.

Constant TV commercials of doctors telling heart rending stories of women carrying children with severe birth defects that just “had” to have an abortion, along with an admonition to not let the government get involved in personal health decisions!

The opposition hacked the pro life web site and had all the pro life emails rerouted to them.

Evil running rampant.

“... a lot of people are ignorant of what late term abortion even is...”

I have a new grandson, due the first week of August, arrived the second week of May. Less than three pounds. Those thoughts entered my mind as I sat looking at him, such a wonderous little bundle. It just makes you weep to think about what we are doing as a people.

He weighs 15 pounds now and is about to start cutting teeth. Praise the Lord.

You are right about apathy. The turn out figure was 24% of eligible voters. If they won’t turn out for this reason, they won’t turn out for anything. The turnout for last month’s mayoral election was 20%.

Scroll down in this story for those figures:

Thanks for your comment.

I don't have time this afternoon to research the exact numbers.

Most likely, there is no exit polling.

But I do want to check which Hispanic organizations publicly supported the ban.

If any national Hispanic organization supports such a ban, I have not heard about it.

A possibly good frame of reference for this vote might be the 2010 New Mexico governor's race.

Susana Martinez, who won that race, is a centrist Republican, a former Democrat, and is pro-Life.

Martinez's parents are Mexican immigrants.

60% of Hispanics voted AGAINST Martinez!

The only reason she won is because Hispanic voter turnout was very low in that off year election.

The only good thing, such as it is, is theat the liberal babykillers are killing their own spawn, (except for the Abortionators themselves, of course)and so it will be self-liniting, over a long time.
