I don't think I've ever read anything this revolting in my entire life. The Book of Judges tells the story of a Levite who was visiting the city of Gibeah and some men took his concubine, gang raped her all night and killed her. He came out the next day and cut the corpse in twelve pieces and sent them to the tribes of Israel. This got their attention and they declared that they would put evil out of the land.

Atheists deride the morality of the Old Testament heroes, but I think that they have quite a bit on us. We forget about the inhumane slaughter between the march for life and the Life Chain, and some pay it no mind even then. We've let evil prosper in this land with our damned (and I'm not swearing) moral equivalency, and if we do not gain leaders of great character who will fight this evil, we will lose all we hold dear.

Live with slavery in the 1830s, abortion advocates are now trying to change the view of abortion from that of a necessary evil to a positive social, moral, and political good. God help us all.

"I'm feeling good about my decision"

"I lie and say that nothing's new in my life"

"Having an abortion was the best decision I ever made"

The first steps down a path of self deception. You can go to a penitentiary tomorrow and find all the felons you want who will say exactly the same things about their crimes.

Like them, this damaged woman may actually talk herself into believing it for awhile. But she won't believe it after the next one.

I wonder if the "doctor," or any of the "women" working there, told her she now has a 25% risk of sterility, a six-fold greater risk of PID, and her chances of breast cancer just doubled. Bet not.

This person does not deserve to be a mother. . . ever.

If sincerely and extemporaneously written? It is obvious that "me" is the only consideration given at all.

God have mercy on our souls.

I was 19 years old. While in the stirrups I felt cold and sharp sticks of pain. We need to dilate you, I heard. Then I felt the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. Thankfully I passed out. When I came to, I was disoriented ---- I didn't know where I was. I was in a small medical examination room. I was having an abortion.

And today, I'm sterile. I'll never have a baby.

Walking home from the store, I hear a baby wailing through an apartment window on my street. I chuckle to myself and think how happy I am that won't be my window later this year.

Every so often, opponents of capital punishment make the feeble argument that executing murderers actually makes society more dangerous by making us all more callous regarding the death of a human being.

If the story of "Ada" is typical of women who have abortions without apology, it's clear where the real callousness lies, and what caused it.

More small talk. She's a cat person but her apartment won't allow them. I sympathize.

....she sounds really compassionate........it's an awful thing that she doesn't have a place for cats, but an unborn child is about to be made homeless, as he/ she is about to be sucked out of the womb.

....it really is incredible; liberals seem to have a heart of bottomless evil at times..........many times.

I am not here to get on a soap box, but I want to share a little with you.

I was 24, single, and wound up pregnant by someone I thought loved me. He loved what I could do for him.... As my belly grew, he became more repulsed by me, because I wasn't sexy anymore (my flat stomach was gone!)...

It was rough being single and pregnant in the days, before it became "fashionable". When the doctor told me I was pregnant, he automatically had his office call the hospital for an abortion. I literally got off the table and ran out of the office.

I wanted my baby. I knew things would be difficult, and it hurt my family terribly. My father disowned me temporarily, but then came to his senses.

I struggled with the possibility of giving up the baby for adoption. The father wanted me to do that.. he was shocked when one day, I told him, no, that's MY baby.. I'm raising this child. I sought counseling from my priest and he told me "Out of something bad, comes something good."

Long story short, that was 25 years ago. My son is 25, and a sergeant in the US Marine Corps. The father was mean to both of us, and wanted nothing to do with him. He was a miserable person, so it's his loss!

I raised my son alone, with no help from anyone. It was an awful cross at times, I worked my butt off, but I had some friends who were good to us. He had everything a "normal" two parent family gave a child.

I thank God every single day, that I have him. He is such a good young man. He's my hero!! Sometimes I look back on the choice I could have made, and I shudder. I'm so glad I chose life for my son. I could never have lived with myself otherwise.

Strangely enough, I am still single, never married, just never found the right guy. But I have my wonderful son. If I had aborted him, I would never know this unending joy and love.

I pray for women who have had abortions, because all of their lives there will be a void they won't be able to fill.

Abortion is about choice?? Ladies, after you made your "choice", there is no more choice, just consequences.

MMJ

People talk about the fact that there was no outrage over Abu Ghraib until people saw pictures. I think if people could see video of life in the womb, of babies smiling, etc., and then saw a film of a partial birth abortion, and then the aftermath the the formerly pregnant woman ensures, we'd have a lot fewer abortions.

Future generations may look back at a time when our nation destroyed over 40 million lives in the womb with the same horror that we view the gladiatorial days of Ancient Rome.
