Forcing children to be born into life of abuse

Posted May 30, 2019 1:00 am

Pro-Lifers: Think about A.J.; think about the lives involved. Is a nonviable embryo so important that it should be born addicted or drug-laden?

Is a nonviable embryo so important that it should be born into a life of abuse, neglect and even murder?

Are women so worthless that they should endure abuse, poverty, psychological trauma just to bring unwanted embryos to term? Are women so worthless that they should be condemned to the last resort of illegal, back-alley, coat-hanger abortions?

Most unwanted children are abused, neglected, murdered or in foster care. Are you ready to take on the guilt and responsibility for all these damaged lives?

Remember: It takes many people to try and repair just one life. Think about A.J. and how many people tried to help him and his family and failed utterly.
