Right to Life?

I am a volunteer for the Network of Politically Active Christians, a non-partisan, Christ centered, grassroots organization that seeks to inform, educate and activate citizens toward cultural and political reform. We advocate for righteousness, justice, liberty and virtue. NPAC's goals are to inform, educate and activate Christians to be involved in the political process. NPAC recently began listing newsworthy stories on its Facebook page. Today, one particular reader commented, " have a bone to pick with NPAC. When the reporter was raped by a mob...you guys had nothing to say...I'm quite disapointed. This is one of the reasons that abortion should remain legal. I expected atleast a prayer for her..Nothing.."

My response, was "I believe we did post this story. Abortion should not remain legal just because we did or did not report about a particular story. We are made in the image of God and no one should be able to destroy that. The Bible says that "before I formed you in the womb, I knew you." I have personally prayed for this reporter. You do not always now what is going on in the heart's of man whether public or private. And if you saw that a story was not listed here, then you by all means can utilize your free speech and list the information here. And I am sure a guy like Ryan Bomberger, whose mother was raped and had Ryan anyway, would strongly disagree with your stance. Ryan is one of the leading Pro-Life activits of our time. But wait, if he had been aborted just b/c his mother was raped, then the world would be missing a great person... http://www.toomanyaborted.com/?page_id=379."

So just because a woman is raped means that the precious baby in the womb does not have the right to life? Yes rape is a serious and devasting life event. The woman needs counseling and immediate medical care. Who are we to question why God chose to make this woman a mother? Do we just parcel out the parts of the Bible that fit our lifestyle and to heck with the rest? And what ever happened to the discussion of adoption as a viable option? Many woman would love to parent the baby, whether the product of rape or a physical handicap.

If you are not familiar with Ryan Bomberger and his magnificent work of informing the public of the serious problem of black genocide in America, then I urge you to check out his organization, The Radiance Foundation, and his latest campaign, "Too Many Aborted..."
