Murdering the unborn
Many are rightly shocked by the recent Tsunami disaster in which thousands of innocent people have been killed. A movement of solidarity has developed everywhere in the world to supply relief for those hit by the horrible tragedy in India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Few, however, seem concerned that millions more -- the most innocent of innocent -- are being lawfully killed each day through abortion in ordinary hospitals and clinics around the globe -- and in the most gruesome manner.
Given such a grave situation, we need now more than ever to have the courage to look the truth in the eye and to call things by their proper name, without yielding to convenient compromises or to the temptation of self-deception.
As members of the human family we have a duty to uphold the rights of the unborn who are just as deserving of care and attention as those in Asia. May the same global outpouring of love be extended to them.
