Nothing good can come of the Culture of Death – this is just more proof of that:
Women who refuse requests from their husbands or boyfriends to have abortions are often finding themselves subject to violent attacks that sometimes result in their deaths. That’s the finding of a new report from the Elliot Institute, which calls the problem a “widespread epidemic.”
The new report, Forced Abortion in America, is drawing attention to attacks on pregnant women and girls in order to prevent them from continuing their pregnancies.
It points out a “widespread epidemic of unwanted, coerced and forced abortions taking place in the United States.”
The report notes how research suggests most abortions are likely unwanted or coerced, with one survey of women who had abortions finding that 64 percent said they felt pressured by others to abort.
Death is something never to be sought – it comes to us all, of course, but it is not something we are supposed to court. Our natural inclination is to live – life is good, and God has written that on our hearts. When we choose death, when we go out of our way to inflict it without cause, we have chosen evil. And out of that evil, worse will follow.
The Culture of Life is the only rational position to hold – it is in line with human nature and expresses the truth of our condition. We must end this scourge of abortion in order to regain a rational society.
