Jason Morgan’s article
exposing the murderous effect abortion is having on our nation and the
world is beyond vivid. He has encapsulated the reality of killing the
innocent in a vision that should be heart stopping, but after so many
years, it hardly receives a yawn.
As
Morgan sees it, “What makes the slaughter of the children different is
the intent behind it.” And that is the crux of the matter. It is not
merely how human beings murder that is so chilling, it is a combination
of the decriminalized nature of the act and the laissez-faire attitude
with which it occurs.
Today
this is not a simple theory, it is a fact borne out by the situations
we see all around us. Regardless of the latest flawed Supreme Court Dobbs
decision, the problem is that for many people seeing is not believing.
Recognizing the preborn baby as a human being matters not to the
abortion ravenous. Their callous disregard for innocent people we
observe playing out in our neighborhoods and communities every day has
hardened the hearts of far too many.
Clearly “the stringent polarization
and toxicity of our times, along with the temptation to view everything
as a salvo in an ever-hotter culture war” has paved the way to the
inhumanity our fellow citizens fail to observe in our midst. The
examples of this callousness are all around us.
As an example, we need look no further than California where Governor Gavin Newsom has launched
a new website that “provides people—both inside and outside of
California—with information about how, where and when to access abortion
services.”
Newsom has also rented billboards
in so-called red states that advertise the abortion biz in his state,
claiming that California is the place to go if you are living somewhere
where aborting children has been curtailed or banned.
Is this a manifestation of the devil in our midst or liberal politics as usual?
In
Newsom’s twisted world—which every resident of California is
subsidizing with their taxes—these abhorrent billboards are devilish in
the messaging. One billboard states:
“Want an abortion? California is ready to help.” Then beneath these
words are the words of Mark 12:21: “Love your neighbor as yourself.
There is no greater commandment than these.”
Not
only is such a message antithetical to the bloody reality of aborting
one’s child but it is also the most grievous crime against God than
anyone can imagine, that is if you have not imbibed the deadly brew of
the devil himself. Such blatant disregard for innocent persons smacks of
Dante’s seventh circle of hell, where the violent who are guilty of crimes against their fellow humans and against God are condemned.
While Dante’s Inferno
is a work of fiction, it is in a real sense a vivid word picture of the
tragic condition of this nation today where babies are killed under the
banner of choice and laws are created to protect violence paraded
before us as part of a woman’s healthcare.
Such twisted propaganda is not only actively promoted but at the same
time imbibed without question by millions of people both in our nation
and around the world.
Jason Morgan, whose article I quoted at the outset, observes in his concluding comments:
In
struggling to fix a name to this unthinkable reality, I have begun to
think of it as “sapiens eradication,” the attempt—soul by soul, mother
by child—to do away with Homo sapiens in our entirety. This is
not genocide. This is not killing this group, or that. This is the
termination of our whole human family.
Or more succinctly, this is viciousness beyond genocide that is truly hell on earth.
