Prochoicer: our sympathy for unborn babies means nothing

clinic quotes ^ | October 20, 2014 | Sarah Terzo

[Morgana]

A pro-choice writer shared the following argument against laws protecting babies from late-term abortions:

“We may, as many people do, sympathize with the pain we think the fetus feels, but we must be careful in saying that this sympathy establishes the personness of the fetus. It establishes nothing but our ability to sympathize.”

Michael Bettencourt “Case for Fetal Personhood a Dubious Conception” In These Times, September 20 –26, 1989

This is an old quote, but it struck me as being particularly odious.

I have said it before and will say it again, anybody that supports abortion in any way shape or form, simply could not have the Spirit of Christ within them.

The terms “Christian Democrat” and “pro choice Christian” are both oxymorons

“We may, as many people do, sympathize with the pain we think the fetus feels, but we must be careful in saying that this sympathy establishes the personness of the fetus. It establishes nothing but our ability to sympathize.”

As much as we love and want to protect our children, Jesus loves them so much more. I can not imagine how He feels when one of His most innocent is murdered!

That’s why the practice of abortion throws into question, not the humanity of the unborn, but that of the abortionist.
