Yesterday an article by Fred Lucas appeared entitled, Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards speaks at the Democratic National Convention on Sept. 5, 2012. The article went on to say that “Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards announced Friday she is taking a break from running the nation’s largest abortion provider to volunteer full-time for the re-election of President Barack Obama, because, “Our daughters’ and our granddaughters’ future depends on it.”
Does anyone beside me see the logical fallacy in her statement?
The article also showed that a women who promotes abortion makes $400,000 a year and “the Internal Revenue Service shows that Planned Parenthood got $487.4 million from federal and state governments, up from $363.2 million the previous year, making up about one-third of the organization’s $1 billion budget” for 2010. He went on to say that because of the government putting the public’s money into this organization they perform “over 320,000 taxpayer funded abortions a year, making the group the abortion industry's top abortion provider nationwide.” That is obscene!
Let's get this right. This is really a matter of defining the issue properly and having the courage to say so. The media has dubbed pro-abortion people as Pro-choice. They have dubbed anti-abortion as Pro-Life. Wrong! They are pro-abortion and anti-abortion people….period. Abortion supporters promote murder and anti-abortion people fight murder. Here is where the real big difference is. The pro-abortion groups hate the death penalty and anti-abortions groups largely support the death penalty. That is why the media and the abortionists dub them as pro-life in order to attack them as hypocrites. Let’s define this properly. They are not pro-life. They are pro innocent life. Executing those guilty of terrible crimes is not murder….it’s justice; and it’s justice because they are not innocent.
There is only one reason to support aborting innocent life. You don’t believe its murder! There is only one reason to be against aborting innocent life. You believe its murder! If killing the innocent unborn is murder then it’s murder…… always. It isn’t murder on Monday and an option on Tuesday because of unpleasant circumstances.
I have said this in the past and I will repeat it here. In ancient times pagans murdered their newborn children for economic and political reasons by throwing them alive into burning pits as sacrifices to their gods. Today we are murdering our unborn children for economic and political reasons to prove we have no God. Our minds are so clouded with secular liberalism that we can’t see reality clearly - liberalism is now leftism - an unstable philosophy for which we have abandoned traditional values.
A concept where nothing is right and nothing is wrong. A value system that isn’t much more that the latest philosophical flavor of the day, which may change tomorrow, leaving untold damage to humanity in its wake. Then we wonder why society is getting so out of control, especially among the young, the university trained, and radical racial groups.
Once again, we need to properly define the problem.
Traditional wisdom is based on values that have stood the test of time - values which are foundational to a stable society. Conventional wisdom is merely what people have chosen to believe right now based on immediate expediency. There is no historical or moral foundation to conventional wisdom, and generally is based on warping traditional values.
No government can forcibly control society forever. What generates stability in society is self-control based on values that are not just the latest philosophy of the day. Traditional Judaic/Christian values are foundational to the creation of the U.S. Constitution. As we abandoned one, we abandoned the other.
How did that happen? I can tell you how this happened by asking two questions.
- When was the last time you read the U.S. Constitution?
- When was the last time you read the Bible?
If no one reads, understands, or values the very foundational works that created American exceptionalism, why would we think society wouldn't easily abandon the values espoused there-in?
We don't read them, we don't understand them, we don't live them, we don't value them, we don't even know what those values are and we have no idea what is being lost as a result.
The left has promoted ignorance, mediocrity, consensus and complacency making it easier to get society to accept the unacceptable, and they have been successful because the media, academia and political leaders are corrupt, and this must include many in the religious community. The traditional institutions have become corrupted to the point that there is nothing so degenerate they can't find it acceptable.
Around 18 years ago a study came out saying that 80% of all children under 18 years old had no religious training. 80%! If that is the case then the very foundation for a stable society based on firm moral principles is lost. Can any society fix itself if it doesn’t understand itself? Can any society fix what is wrong if it can’t identify what is wrong? Can any society fix what is wrong if they only believe in what is convenient and there is no right nor wrong? No! And now we are being washed back and forth like the ocean’s waves crashing against the rocks. We are left with no stable structure for our thoughts and values. We have lost our minds because we no longer have clear definitions of right and wrong.
We live in a house with a foundation built on sand.
