| subject: | Abortion - Slaughter Of Innocent 02 |
Consider where you currently live. Consider what percentage of people living in your area would have to die, in order to reach such an astounding number. It's really shocking, isn't it? Why? Because there are not enough people living in your area, or even in your entire state, to reach that horrific number. Exactly how large is 46,000,000? Well, let's make a few quick and easy comparisons. The 2007 population of the state of California, which happens to be the most populated state in the USA, was 36.5 million people. That means that for the purposes of this comparison, the entire population of that huge state has been slaughtered through abortion, in addition to about another 25% of the population beyond that, since abortion became legal in 1973. In other words, roughly 125% of the entire population of California would have to be slaughtered, in order to equal the number of abortions which have been performed in the USA, since Roe v. Wade became the law of the land in 1973. Here is an equally astounding comparison. According to 2007 population figures, the huge state of Texas comes in second with over 23.9 million inhabitants. That means that double the entire population of Texas has been slaughtered through the act of abortion, since 1973. Let us not forget that this state is where the Roe v. Wade battle began. Let us also not forget that the 46 million figure only represents the known number of legal abortions. How many illegal ones have there been? Now can you better comprehend the full scope of this problem? No one ever heard those 46 million voices. No one ever felt, or saw, their pain. They were just gone. They were horribly burned by a salt solution; sliced up like a worthless hunk of meat; shredded and sucked up before the evidence could be seen; and discarded. And America, and the world, continue in this grotesque, detestable practice year after year, without blinking an eye. Oh, how God must weep! Speaking of the pain which fetuses are now scientifically known to feel, you won't believe what one person wrote to me a few years ago regarding this sensitive issue. After referring to an embryo as a "ball of cells", they said: ----- Begin Quote ----- "Well, perhaps the cells do have the ability to feel, but at that stage of development, it wouldn't have a brain to interpret such signals. I think the issue of the one-month old fetus feeling pain is irrelevant." ----- End Quote ----- Either this person was purposely being downright deceptive, or else they are ignorant of the fact that at least 42% of all abortions performed in the United States occur after the first month of gestation; and the longer that a woman waits to have her abortion, the more likely that the fetus is able to feel pain as it is being ripped apart by the abortionist. When U.S. Government figures take public office, they often place their hand upon a Bible, and swear to uphold the laws and ideals of the United States, as are set forth in the US Constitution, and other legal documents. In similar fashion, most members of the medical profession, upon entering their chosen field of practice, take a similar oath which is known as the "Hippocratic Oath". This oath, which is believed to have been written by Hippocrates, the father of medicine, in 4th century BC Greece, sets down in writing the ethics of all medical practitioners. Translated from Greek, it states the following: ----- Begin Quote ----- "I swear by Apollo, Asclepius, Hygieia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgment, the following Oath. To consider dear to me, as my parents, him who taught me this art; to live in common with him and, if necessary, to share my goods with him; To look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art. I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone. I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion. But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts. I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest; I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners, specialists in this art. In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves. All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal. If I keep this oath faithfully, may I enjoy my life and practice my art, respected by all men and in all times; but if I swerve from it or violate it, may the reverse be my lot." ----- End Quote ----- Please notice the line that clearly states ". . . I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion." Clearly then, as I stated earlier, medical professionals who perform, or assist in, an abortion, are in direct violation of their own creed. Could this possibly be one of the reasons why some of them now even refuse to recognize the oath; that is, because they know that they have no intentions of fully keeping it? Every four years, as mandated by the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the United States, the people of America elect a new president. At the time that Roe v. Wade became the law of the land, Richard M. Nixon was the president of the USA. He was forced to resign in August of 1974, due to the Watergate scandal, at which time Gerald Ford, then the vice president, became the new president. From that time until today, there have been nine four-year presidential cycles; yet in spite of the fact that thirty-six years have passed, Roe v. Wade has never been overturned, and we should wonder why this is so. As is common knowledge within the United States, the issue of abortion has repeatedly played a central role, and has had a very direct effect, on who becomes the next president of the United States. Would-be presidents know that if they want to assume the office of the president, they must win the support of their constituents, whether they are pro-lifers, or else pro-abortionists. Concerning the more conservative Republican Party, this has usually meant taking a strong stand against abortion. As recent American history reveals, it was because George W. Bush catered to the Christian Right, and came out against abortion, embryonic stem cell research and same-sex "marriages", that he won the presidential race in 2000, and then again in 2004, in spite of the fact that he dragged the United States into the illegal Iraq War, based on deception and lies. However, as I explain in the four-part series "Obama, McCain And The Bush Legacy", despite their high expectations, even after eight years of the Bush Administration, Christians in America are saddened to see that abortions still occur on a daily basis throughout the country. Furthermore, soon a much more liberal president, who has tried to straddle the fence regarding abortion, and who has in fact done nothing which opposes abortion, will be moving into the White House. I am of course referring to President-elect Barack Hussein Obama. To clarify what I mean, please consider the following data regarding Mr. Obama: 1. He supports Roe v. Wade. 2. He voted against prohibiting minors from crossing state lines in order to obtain an abortion. 3. He voted against notifying parents of minor children who obtain out-of-state abortions. 4. He is undecided on whether or not life begins at conception. 5. He voted against banning partial-birth abortions. 6. He stated that we should trust women to make their own decisions regarding partial-birth abortion. Equally alarming is the fact that President-Elect Obama has made it quite clear that one of his very first acts as the new president of the United States, in addition to dealing with the current economic crisis, will be to sign into law the so-called "Freedom Of Choice Act", or FOCA, once the US Congress has presented it to him for his signature. In fact, in July of 2007, while speaking to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Barack Obama, then a U.S. senator, stated the following; and you can be certain that Planned Parenthood is going to hold Obama to his promise: ----- Begin Quote ----- "The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act. That's the first thing that I'd do." ----- End Quote ----- Jeff Snyder, SysOp - Armageddon BBS Visit us at endtimeprophecy.org port 23 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your Download Center 4 Mac BBS Software & Christian Files.
