Right To Life
Abortion doesn't just "terminate a pregnancy." Abortion destroys the life of an innocent, helpless human being....a child whose only crime was to be unwanted by his or her parents.
A human fetus is not a "blob of tissue" or a "product of conception". It is a very young human child. In fact, the word "fetus" describes a stage of human development, just as the words "infant," "toddler" "adolescent" and "adult" describe stages of human development.
We don't condone the destruction of toddlers or adolescents who impose a burden on their parents. Why should we accept the destruction of unborn babies whose existence poses a challenge?
Please pray for an end to abortion.
