I’m not too sure that the sexual revoluation can’t be rolled back some in this society. As much as the sixties generation opened the barn door and the cultural collapse in the ensuing decades expanded the casual sex lifestyle, people are starting to awaken from this moral coma.
It’s encouraging to see, here especially, stories of college kids becoming more conservative and more children willing to take abstinence pledges (whether they follow through with them or not, it’s encouraging to see that a teenager would even say in public nowadays that they would try something like this when in the past they would have been ridiculed into silence). I don’t think the fight to reverse the sexual revolution should be given up yet.
But, like most of your posts have said, winning the information war and the war of ideas is the key. The Left has had generations to chip away at the moral base of this country and are still quite powerful with their control over the MSM. But, as generations pass and new mediums rise, conservative ideals can fill that vacuum of empty ideas and right the moral compass.
As for France’s abortion strucuture, I can’t help but think about the idiotic Clinton mantra of making abortion “safe, legal, and rare” (or some idiotic version of this sound byte). If it’s wrong, then it’s wrong, no matter if the numbers are 1 million, 500,000 or 1. As a Christian and a Roman Catholic, I can’t sit here and sacrifice even one innocent life in order to bring the overall numbers down. Each life is worth saving. Like the Left made it so easy and acceptable to murder children in the womb day by dy, court case by court case, generation by generation, we need to hold our ground and fight each and every battle.
Abortion laws are at their apex right now. For goodness sake, children are wriggling their hands and feet in front of a doctor before their skulls are crushed and bodies vacuumed from the uterus. Can we get any closer to infanticide than that? We are way past compromise. We have to continue to chip away in the other direction. And your ideas of ultrasounds for every abortion consultation is a good start. Let these mothers, even in the first and second trimesters, count their children’s bones and listen to their heart beats. In time, technology will even be able to let us peer even farther back into the birth process.
Information is the key and if we can continue to educate the newer generations before their minds are rotted by the MSM and our high schools and universities, then we may be able to reach the point where the abortion industry needs to shut down its mills because they are just not worth the hassle for them.
