33 Years and Counting...

Thirty-three years ago yesterday, the Supreme Court handed down what nearly every legal scholar agrees was one of the worst and most unjustifiable decisions in history-Roe v. Wade. This decision has caused immeasurable harm to our legal system as it continues to distort all sorts of doctrines. This plank in the grand liberal agenda for the Supreme Court, however, began a firestorm that is only burning more deeply and more thoroughly throughout America. This opinion took the decision out of the hands of the democratic process without any authorization at all from our written Constitution.

We are now 45 million Americans short. That's right, 45,000,000 human beings. For me, I highly resolve again today that these lives shall not have died in vain. These quiet lives represent the great moral issue of our time. I commit myself to continue praying, to continue lobbying, and to continue to convince my fellow Americans that all innocent human beings deserve the right to live.

In light of this, let me share two touching stories.

Turn off the light," Heather Gemmen murmured. She thought her husband, Steve, had returned from an evening at church. When Heather peeked out from the covers, she saw a strange man standing in her bedroom!..."You have to come home! You have to come home!" she pleaded....Shame engulfed her as she spoke. "I've been raped!"... Heather had been pro-life since she was a young girl, but now her theology collided with the painful reality of a crime. What should she do? Read the rest here.

My biological mother was seven-and-a-half months pregnant when she decided to abort me....She went to a clinic in Los Angeles and had a saline abortion. A salt solution is injected into the mother's womb, which the baby gulps. The solution also burns the baby inside and out. The idea was that within 24 hours she would deliver a dead baby. But, by the grace of God, I survived. Read the rest here.

Let us not forget, let us not lose our will, let our mouths not be silent.
