Wow. Just when you thought they couldn't get any more disgusting......but the comparison as to how we should feel towards planned parenthood is interesting. I don't know if it's quite on a level plane, but I can definitely see his point in trying to take it to a level plane; the deliberate selfish killing of the less fortunate.

I hope that made a little sense. I'm still a little shocked.

That is so horrible. I cannot imagine how they feel they can justify their actions. Awful.

truly horrible--and a good comparison. evil is evil. in both instances, the person believes in their cause and thinks they're doing something "good". both are deceived. neither values life as they should.

it's always easier to see the sin in the other person or nation. the united states of america, land of the free, kills multitudes of unborn babies every single day, not valuing life as they should. planned parenthood exploits women, especially minorities and the poor. abortion is big business.

on a (much!) smaller scale, if you have more than about two kids and get pregnant, even at church people ask if your new baby was an "accident." even us christians don't necessarily see life properly.

i think we should pray for the middle east, and for our own leaders, and for ourselves. a sad world we live in, but God is bigger, and one day He'll make everything right.

this is so sickening, and it makes me feel so angry. people with down syndrome are so worthy of life and love and a chance to live for the Creator. evil has blinded the hearts of so many.
