Planned Parenthood Uses God to Sell Abortions, Letter Tells Women Clergy Say Abortion’s Okay
Life News ^ | Carole Novielli

Abortion giant Planned Parenthood is using God to target paying customers for abortion.

Planned Parenthood pastoral letter Header.

In a Pastoral Letter to Patients, Planned Parenthood tells women and girls in a crisis pregnancy that there is nothing in the scriptures that says abortion is wrong and that many clergy think abortion is okay:

The decision to have an abortion is personal. Though your reasons may be complicated and private, you’re not alone. As religious leaders from a number of religious traditions, we’re here to support you in your decision.

Many people wrongly assume that all religious leaders disapprove of abortion. The truth is that abortion is not even mentioned in the Scriptures—Jewish or Christian—and there are clergy and people of faith from all denominations who support women making this complex decision.

The beliefs of each person are deserving of respect, and each person deserves care and compassion, No one should be allowed to force their faith teachings on anyone else.

We believe this decision is yours, made with your doctor and anyone else you choose to bring into the conversation, such as a spouse, partner, parent, or clergy person.”

Planned Parenthood pastoral letter PG 1.

The letter goes on to tell the FUTURE PAYING ABORTION CUSTOMER that, “God loves you and is with you no matter what you decide. You can find strength, understanding, and comfort in that love.”

Keep far from a false charge, and do not kill the innocent and righteous, for I will not acquit the wicked.

Psalm 139:13-16 ESV For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.

Psalm 127:3 ESV

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.

Yes. Margaret Sanger recommended this tactic.

10 out of 10 priests of Moloch think abortion is fine and dandy.

NO. No, it's not all right.

A favorite, Proverbs 24: 10 - 12:

10 If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength!

11 Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter.

12 If you say, "But we knew nothing about this," does not He who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not He who guards your life know it? Will He not repay everyone according to what they have done?

Nothing is more twisted or obscene than clerics, including priests, ministers and nuns, pimping abortion.

And if the lady clergy really followed and believed in the Bible they would tell Planned Parenthood to ‘shove it’.

Luke 1:39-45

39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, 40 where she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth. 41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”

Three Questions:

1. Ask any “religious” person who supports abortion what separates man from the beasts, and why it is perfecly legal to kill a cow, but it is murder to kill a man.

2. Ask at what point in the gestational cycle the man gains a soul that differentiates him from the beasts.

3. Ask him if he is absolutely sure about his answer to question #2.

God forgives anything, if one asks His forgiveness AND repents. That said however, ALL sin has consequences. For those who abort, there is a much risk of numerous mental, psychological and emotional problems, including difficulties with future births when they want children.

As far as Planned Parenthood, counseling a woman, especially a teenager, to kill her unborn child brings to mind many scriptures contravening abortion including what Jesus said in Matthew 18:6-7:
"Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes! "

I suspect that many working at Planned Parenthood should expect a 'warm' reception at their demise!

======================================

What you say is true.

HOWEVER, if women had refused, still refuse and would always refuse to patronize this evil organization, it wouldn't have ever existed. It would be just another UGLY part of human history.

PP saw a demand, so, it supplied the birth control and abortion. Supply and demand, pretty simple.

It was the WOMENS' choice to practice birth control and abort. No one at PP went into homes and forced these women, at gunpoint, to use birth control and get abortions.

It's that ole FREE WILL again, the CHOICE to sin, the choosing of Satan over God.

supply and demand?

They goose the “demand” in public schools by promoting sex to kids, then they supply it without even regards to the law. Plus they are heavily subsidized.

There is no free market there.

Females WALK INTO Planned Parenthood. PP doesn't force itself into women's homes; it doesn't force them to come into PP. It's a CHOICE that women make.

Satan ALWAYS tempts; that is what he does. Whether it's Satan or his minions at PP, no female is forced to drive to PP, walk inside, get an appointment, talk to someone at the clinic, listen to their Satanic advice and go through an abortion.

It's a L-O-N-G road from women saying: "I don't want this baby" to lying on the table ALLOWING the doctor to KILL her baby...a long road.

They "goose" the demand? When did the math, biology and English teachers YOU knew promote sex to their students?

1. Sex is promoted on television and in movies. Sex is SHOVED down our throats on television and in movies.

2. Sex is HUGE on the Internet.

3. Pornography is HUGE everywhere.

4. Where in our media is sex NOT promoted?

5. In many countries prostitution, sex for sale, is legal. If THAT doesn't promote sex, nothing does.

And, in all of this, are there NO parents? Is there no one in the lives of our children to contradict the media blitz of sex and pornography?

If there is no "free market" there still is FREE WILL; FREE WILL to do what is right.

The "blame" starts in the home, don't you agree?

-— The “blame” starts in the home, don’t you agree? -—

None of your five examples cite parental abuse. Yes, parents may err in failing to adequately protect their children, but your examples demonstrate that the attack is coming from outside the home.

Schools are another avenue of attack.

Patents are by right their children’s primary educators and this right should be protected by law. Forcing children into government schools is a clear violation of this natural right, and more fitting for a communist country, not a free people.

PP is presented as offering counseling and choices to their clients. I would guess that many younger women and girls go there for counseling and to look for options in the case of unwanted pregnancy. From what I’ve read of the organization, perhaps 1/10th of 1% of the time, is anything but abortion presented as an option. Therefore, they are leading women astray, hence Jesus’ quote from Matthew by not offering all the facts, such as the higher risk for future physical problems. In fact, they might be leading some women AWAY from sin, if they presented ALL the options and the risks. My comment stands.
