The Peterson murder case is an magnificent example of America's continuing cowardice and moral occlusion. But for once, a bright line has been drawn which prevents the supporters of "a woman's right to choose" from hiding behind tortured definitions, incomplete phrases and naked appeals to selfishness, and forces the neutral majority to realize their complicity in America's greatest shame.

Indeed, I am grateful to those few abortionettes, like Mavra Stark of the Morris County, N.J., chapter of NOW, who are bold enough to publicly articulate what is the ultimate position of their pro-death camp – that a woman has a right to kill her child at any time.

There is no possible half-measure. Either an unborn child is human, or it is not. If abortion is not murder, then neither can it be murder for a stranger to end a woman's pregnancy with a savage kick to the stomach. If abortion is not murder, then it is only Laci Peterson's fate with which the law must be concerned, for we need not trouble ourselves anymore about the swelling growth in her abdomen than we would about a wart on her foot.

But abortion is murder. More than that, it is the most vile and despicable of murders.

I have written before that calling a feminist a feminazi is an insult to National Socialism – I say this because the National Socialists were targeting for dehumanization those they considered to be a deadly enemy, the members of a race with whom the Aryan nation was competing for the throne of the world. American feminists, on the other hand, have dehumanized the most innocent portion of the human race in the prosaic pursuit of sexual pleasure and career advancement.

Dehumanization is always the first step in any planned massacre, which is why feminists stubbornly cling to the word "fetus" and are panicked when an event like the Peterson killings puts the lie to their contention that the unborn child is somehow something less than human. Their defense of atrocities such as the abomination that is partial-birth abortion places them on the moral level of a concentration-camp employee.

Now, it has become commonplace today to engage in transtemporal judgementalism, which is why the Founding Fathers are denigrated for their recognition of slavery and why modern Germans are still tainted by their grandparent's acceptance of National Socialism. Consider, then, how future generations will damn America for the 40 million unborn children legally murdered since 1972.

Legality is not morality. It was legal to murder a black in 1840, a Jew in 1944 and it has been legal to murder an unborn baby in America for the last 30 years – in 50 more, perhaps it will be legal to murder a Christian, a Frenchman or a feminist. But morality is eternal, and regardless of the current state of the law, such actions will always be immoral.

Spare me any defenses of this madly sadistic blood-orgy. I have heard them all, and I could not care less that we do not yet know the precise moment at which life begins. I am unmoved by the thought that the country might be deprived of another International Relations major if an upper-middle-class girl is not able to finish her degree due to the easily foreseeable consequences of her actions, and I have no more pity for the hypothetical woman seeking a back-alley abortion than had the U.S. 157th Regiment for the Waffen-SS guards they captured at Dachau.

As for the red-handed doctors, nurses and organizations that profit by stealing life from the unborn, better I say nothing. My thoughts regarding them are unprintable, and, I will confess, less than perfectly Christian.

Just this morning, I held a little girl in my arms, a beautiful little girl younger than Connor Peterson would be now, and when she smiled at me I was able to see the pure joy that was in her soul, even at such a young age. Wanted or unwanted, every child is precious and if a claim on privacy can be manufactured from constitutional penumbras and emanations, then surely an imperative to be born can be discovered in the inalienable right to life, liberty and happiness.

I hope that the sad and tragic fate of Laci Peterson and her little son, Connor, will help America wake up from its long, shameful national nightmare. Abortion is murder. Abortion must end.

Kudos to Vox Day for an outstanding article.

I highly recommend all Freepers and Lurkers to read Abortion: the Silent Holocaust. It was written by Fr. John Powell, S.J. (Click on “books” then scroll.) One of the most important books on the subject ever written. This book has overwhelming importance for high-school students as well as adult study. The author speaks directly to the reader as few writers can. He takes you along his personal journeys from his studies in Germany and tour of the death camp in Dachau, through his work in the pro-life movement.

Comprehensive education of adults, and more importantly school students, is THE MISSING KEY OF THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT

Ignorance is the greatest weapon of the pro-abortion side.

Amen, Vox. May God forgive us.

Prayers For The Dead
(958) “In full consciousness of this communion of the whole Mystical Body of Jesus Christ, the Church in its pilgrim members, from the very earliest days of the Christian religion, has honored with great respect the memory of the dead; and ‘because it is a holy and a wholesome thought to pray for the dead that they may be loosed from their sins’ she offers her suffrages for them.” Our prayer for them is capable not only of helping them, but also of making their intercession for us effective. (Page 272)

I cherish the memories of my loved ones who have died, but I can do nothing for them, and neither can anyone else. The claim made in this catechism is not supported anywhere in the Bible. Where is your source of truth, the word’s of men or the Word of God? The rich man in Hell prayed to Abraham, and even righteous Abraham could not change his situation.

Luke 16:27-31 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Abraham was very clear. He told this rich man in Hell that while his brothers were alive they have a chance to repent. They have the option to hear Moses and the prophets. Moses was dead by this time. It is clear that he was talking about the writings of Moses and the prophets, the written Word of God. It is through the preaching of the Word of God that God has chosen to lead men to Christ, and to the world this seems foolish.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

1 Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that BELIEVE.

BTTT!!!

The really sad thing is that so many people want children and either don't or can't due to physical problems, that all those babies murdered would have homes and parents and be happy.

The Peterson case will most certainly stir the waters of the abortion debate and force some frank discussion of issues that abortion-rights proponents would rather keep hidden in a sealed box marked "Roe v Wade". I just hope that lawyers don't engineer some compromise position that defines abortion as completely different from otherwise ending a pregnancy.

As a man, I won't presume to judge any woman who feels that she absolutely must have an abortion, that is ultimately between her, herself and God and she must live with the consequences. However I cannot conceive of the doctors and practitioners who could actually do this, not only once but day after day, doing it with their own hands, while remaining sane. I think that ultimately, after their own death if not sooner, they will realize the magnitude of the horrors they have done and will go on screaming a scream that only they can hear.

My wife walked out of the bathroom one of the first weekends in January... She seemed frustrated. I asked what was wrong. She replied, "I'm Late..". I responded, "Well if you leave now you can make it on time." She looked at me like I was an idiot.. then it dawned on me.. Oh! Late!..

My wife and I had no intentions of having a baby. We didn't go so far as getting fixed or anything. Just used the pill. A baby was not in the plans.

But at that moment and at no time did I ever think that abortion was an option. Sure I was in denial for several weeks until all the various pregnancy test came in positive and the final slap into reality was the first ultrasound.

I am now a father of a beautiful baby girl. She wasn't planned but don't for a minute think she is unwanted. She was an oops.. but not a mistake.

I can barely fathom the thought process of what it would take , if Scott Peterson did it, to murder my wife and child. I can say that my actions would be drasticlly different than Mr . Peterson's upon finding out 1. My wife and unborn child are missing. 2. Hearing the news that two bodies that could possibly be them have been discovered.

If he did it.. He and all the pro-muder/abortion/choice will live in the same neck of the woods in hell. May God have mercy on them.. because I certainly wouldn't...

The little guy who died where he should have been the safest didn't die in vain. I hope this case goes all the way to the supreme court. Conner vs (his killer).

I'm not a church going person or member of an organized "religion"....(once was)...but I believe in God as our Higher Power, and also know the difference between Right and Wrong.

In this forceful articulation, Vox Day presents one of the most powerful statements I have yet to read on the pro-life's stance against the pro-death crowd.

Has anyone heard when a memorial service will be held for Laci and Connor? I was just called by a member of my church's choir and they are to sing for a memorial service for Laci and Connor on May 4th, next Sunday, in the afternoon.NOT sure if this is definite.

A powerful statement, which goes deep into the heart and mind.

Dachau was a concentration camp, not a death camp.

I just did a search on Dachau on google.

The term concentration camp is used much more than death camp. But the first english link is below.
