A Little Morality Returns To Society

While I am not an overly religious person I do have strong beliefs that stem from the Christian faith. So if you will permit me a soap box stage for a moment, I believe that the liberalization of our culture is leading us into ruin. The more we disregard our moral foundations in this country the more we slowly kill our way of life.

It comes down to responsibility; or more correctly, the ducking of personal responsibility. Abortion is one of those ills that snags on the moral fabric of our society and unravels it. You want choices? How about not having sex until you are mature enough to handle the consequences of a possible pregnancy? How about using protection? How about only having sex with someone you're in a relationship with? Do I preach? Too bad, the whole purpose of sex is create life. As humans we may derive pleasure from it, but that doesn't strip away its' intended function.

Abortion supposedly corrects all those bad decisions or at least it corrects those decision physically but not mentally. The deep scars that linger in the psyche of a women who has killed he own child will never go away. And that stain repaints the world in which she lives.

Today the Supreme Court delivered a little morality back into America by upholding the ban on partial birth abortions. The abhorred practice usually applies to those abortions outside the first 12 weeks of gestation. Three months? A third of total human pregnancy is over and yet until recently it was perfectly legal to kill the infant. Sick. Deprived. And wrong.

Let me leave you with this picture [the link is graphic]:
The procedure at issue involves partially removing the fetus intact from a woman's uterus, then crushing or cutting its skull to complete the abortion.

Do you want to live in a society where this type of practice is legal?
