So the sickening news stories each year of mothers who left their live newborn babies in garbage dumpsters now have to add that if the mothers had been in another state they could have been absolved of murder charges under the right conditions.
A 2009 report I saw said CBS Local News reported the mother was now “remorseful.”
The New Year’s Eve 2019 one in Philadelphia said the teen mother “didn’t see any other option.” Her tiny infant was suffocated first allegedly by a “friend” who then put him in the dumpster.
“pleasure in unrighteousness” Sounds like Portland
Oh my word... Pence has risen from the dead.
Excellent post. Thanks.
When she sent it I had to look it up.
I have read only a few parts of the Talmud, despite my reading of at least one encyclopedia volume sized book of commentaries for each of the books of the Holy Scriptures, from an Orthodox Jewish publisher (Artscroll- Mesorah) despite the fact that I am not an Orthodox Jew.
Also consult Christian handbooks and Bible guides and have read various other books on the Prophets,Psalms, Proverbs, etc. through the years.The detailed explanations and well-researched controversies are fascinating to me.
This is instead of TV series or the NFL.
I don’t either, but...I think in today’s world, it is somewhat of a symbolic discussion thing, not a real “oath”.
And that is a pity. I have taken what I regard as two oaths in my life, and I have bound myself to them: My enlistment oath in the US Navy, and my Wedding Vows, which I view as an oath.
Things like this have meaning to me. But I know for some, an oath has no meaning at all. Like Leftists.
My God.
Right now, I'm wondering if the 2020 re-election of President Trump will be called "Bonfire of the Vanities" or "The 57 State Chainsaw Massacre". Lots of Demagogic Party foot-shooting going on.
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all [men], as theirs also was.
Doctors do not have observe the Oath. Article says:
Contrary to popular belief, though, most doctors never take this oath—and, actually, most of us are probably glad they never do.
Original Hippocratic Oath
Although scholars disagree about when it was written, or even who wrote it, the general consensus is that the Hippocratic Oath was penned about 2500 years ago. Most commonly attributed to Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, the ancient vow demands a lot from doctors, including a certain level of chastity, charity and swearing to pagan gods. It provides in pertinent part:
I swear by Apollo the physician, and Asclepius, and Hygieia and Panacea and all the gods and goddesses as my witnesses that, according to my ability and judgment, I will keep this Oath and this covenant . . . to teach them this art . . . without fee or covenant.
I will use those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients . . . and I will do no harm or injustice to them.
I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give a woman an abortive remedy.

What’s the new oath? “I won’t violate the Medicare or Medicaid regulations….” “If a feminist mother or metrosexual father says kill the baby, consider it done....”
“I won’t slow down the career path of the mother or the lifestyle of the father....” or something like that.
Unbelievable.

If you carefully examine the first five verses, the Noly Spirit through the apostle Paul is giving a clinical description of a sociopath.
On the underlying question moral question discussed here, nothing addresses it better than the simple logic of this quotation from Mother Teresa, who, at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, DC on February 3, 1994, as cited above, stated: "And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?"
Mother Teresa's declaration may be the most powerful statement in 2016 from which to begin discussions of where a candidate stands on all the questions of life and liberty.
The sole reason these rights were deemed unalienable is that both are derived from the Creator--not from the mother or father, and not from government or judicial decision. What is "granted" by human decision also can, by implication, be withheld.
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them (life and liberty)," said Thomas Jefferson.
"The world is different now. . . and yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forefathers fought are still at issue around the globe--the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God." - John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address
That understanding underlies every other consideration embodied in our Declaration of Independence and every protection of our Constitution. It is the very basis of our rights to life and liberty, of laws to protect them, and it distinguishes ours from other forms of government.
When we fail to acknowledge that foundation of our liberty, then we risk liberty itself for future generations, for where does the right to choose who lives and who does not really end?
That is why the question is of vital importance in each election. Already, we have deprived millions of their Creator-endowed rights to life and liberty, and our nation must be weaker for their loss. We need leaders who understand the implications and potential consequences of departing from our founding principles.
In recent decades, technological advances have enabled us to observe the characteristics and actions of God's tiniest creations in the womb. Unlike previous generations who could not see, we have no excuse for imagining that these are mere blobs of tissue labeled "fetuses." In their early weeks, we now can see that they are living babies who will continue on to possess life and liberty if we do not "destroy" both. Indeed, they are simply smaller versions of ourselves.
Questions on the economy, taxes, threats from terrorists, health care--all are considerations at this election time. One, however, may be basic to all others. Who will best protect the underlying premise of our Constitution--and the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn?
Promises are illusive and cheap. One fact is indisputable, however: Democrats are committed to the Far Left's agenda on this matter, and that agenda is not compatible with our Constitution's premise.
I love it! Good Executive & Good Moral Authority!
They want to kill babies.
They want to kill all who oppose them.
obamacare was a start and wanting electronic medical records. If you are a conservative then you would not get medical care.
I am equally disgusted by the namby pamby response of the Catholic Church. Gov. Cuomo and every nominal Catholic legislator who supported these bills should be very publically excommunicated. Sadly the Bishops have neither the spine nor moral leadership to act.
