Eleven years after the right to life
movement was given up for dead with the election of
radical abortion supporter Bill Clinton and, blamed even
by our friends for his election, there’s an increasing
amount of good right to life news.
A recent Pro-Choice America postcard says
that “since 1995, states have enacted 335 anti-choice
measures. The
U.S. Congress has cast 148 votes on reproductive rights
and health related issues.
Pro-choice Americans lost all but 25 of those
votes.”
This demonstrates a shift in the nation’s beliefs
about abortion. Even
the name Pro-Choice America is a good sign.
This organization was once called the National
Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL).
Abortion advocates are afraid to use the word
abortion. When
they do, they lose. Right
to life education has succeeded in creating images of what
abortion really is.
Pro-Choice America also says that
“opponents to reproductive choice won’t stop until
safe legal abortion is no longer an option.”
These comments suggest that they know they face a
relentless and determined opponent.
They are losing ground.
It’s crumbling into the sea by the relentless
pounding of the waves of truth.
The media’s changing use of language to describe
the unborn child is another indication of how the country
is changing. With
growing frequency the media uses the words “unborn
child,” “unborn son” or “unborn daughter” to
describe children who have died or been killed before
birth. If the
media is using these words, there’s a change.
The barbaric murder of Californian Laci Peterson
and her unborn son is an example.
Not only has the son been called an unborn son,
he’s been called by his name, Connor.
What’s more, the public believes there are two
victims not one. Only
a National Organization of Women’s affiliate in
New Jersey is left clinging to the presuppositions of the
past when they say there should be no second murder charge
because there was no child.
Public reaction shows that this group represents
the true extremists.
The public is going to make the connection that if
this kind of killing is wrong, so is abortion.
They’ll realize that it doesn’t matter who does
the killing. It’s
still killing.
We’re making definite progress.
People like you have made this happen.
These are times to increase our efforts to help
people connect to the truth.
