Human life begins at conception. We know much more about when life begins today in 2007, than apparently those seven “all-wise” US Supreme Court Justices did in 1973, when they admitted that they did not know when life precisely began. However that did not deter them from deciding what has proved to be one of the worst decision in human history – which has led to the blatant extermination of nearly 50 million precious human beings the past 34 years. I’d say that was a costly, careless and critical misjudgment. Actually is an on-going American holocaust, an American atrocity!
Anyone looking at an ultrasound of a pregnant woman’s developing baby can obviously see what liberally-blinded, abortion-at-all-costs minded leftists cannot see – a vital, viable living human being. Just look at the impact that the Center for Bio-ethical Reform, or Missionaries to the Pre-Born, or the Survivors pro-life have on those who view pictures of aborted babies at various stages of development on their websites and in their efforts on the streets and campuses of America. Look at those pictures and say that those babies are not human beings!
Well pro-life organizations and advocates for thirty years have been dancing around the issue and trying to chip away incrementally at the terrible dreaded Roe v. Wade decision and even with 6 years with a alleged conservative, pro-life President and Congress very little has been accomplished. Powerful and dedicated organizations hell-bent on preserving at any and all costs a woman’s “right” to murder her unborn child such as the radical feminist National Organization of Women (NOW), the abortion industry’s chief lobbyist and representative the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) as well as the gruesome giant Planned Parenthood Federation of America, which promotes and provides the means, methods and manpower to kill the innocent babies. These are merely the headliners in the heinous pro-death amalgamation of liberal groups advocating for preserving and even expanding this wicked song and dance show.
Now comes some very positive news from out of the state of Colorado. There is a group working on a constitutional amendment which would declare the “personhood” of every unborn baby from the moment of conception. This amendment is progressing with the ultimate objective of being placed on the ballot and the people of Colorado being given an opportunity to vote of it in November of 2008. Below is the wording of the language of the amendment.

This amendment is progressing with the ultimate objective of being placed on the ballot and the people of Colorado being given an opportunity to vote of it in November of 2008. Below is the wording of the language of the amendment.
Be it Enacted by the People of the State of Colorado:
SECTION 1. Article II of the constitution of the state of Colorado is amended BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION to read:
Section 31. Person defined. As used in sections 3, 6, and 25 of article II of the state constitution, the terms “person” or “persons” shall include any human being from the moment of fertilization.
This is the best solution. Mark Meuser, a spokesman for the Colorado Equal Rights, the organization heading up the amendment initiative, said in a WorldNetDaily.com article, “We’re defining when personhood begins. In this state, there would be no abortions.”
The WND article points out the “hole” in Roe v. Wade that the Colorado Equal Rights is targeting is the little-publicized comment from Justice Harry Blackmun, author of the 1973 opinion, win which he noted, “[if the’ suggestion of personhood [for the unborn’ is established, the [abortion rights] case, of course collapse, for the fetus’ [baby’s] right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment.”
Mr. Meuser also noted in the WND article that his state was the first to legalize abortion. He is quoted as saying, “We should be the first state to turn around and acknowledge our mistake and grant personhood to the unborn.”
It is also interesting to note that there has been some controversy within the pro-life movement itself in Colorado. The National Right to Life organization kicked the Colorado Right to Life chapter out of their group. From what I could surmise it was because of the tough stand that Brian Rohrbacher, the leader of Colorado Right to Life took in admonished Dr. James Dobson, Focus on the Family and other pro-life organizations as making a big deal out of the recent Partial Birth Abortion Ban, when Rohrbacher thinks it will not actually save one human beings life, since abortionists will just use another means to kill the baby and not chance losing the revenue or opportunity to kill.
Some very good things being initiated in Colorado these days . . .
Children Deserve Birth
ReplyDeleteWhy "Children" rather than "Babies"? Because, for some, "children" may more effectively connote the "personhood" of the young life in the womb and the vitality of that person as well.
Why "Birth" rather than "Life"? Because the unborn child is already alive and awaiting her/his birthday.
So these three little words make three profound statements:
1) The occupant of a pregnant woman's womb is not a "product of conception" or "blob of tissue" or "wad of cells" - she/he is a "person".
2) That person has "the right to life".
3) That "life" already exists and no one has a right to exterminate it.
Read What Abortion Really Is
Good news indeed!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope it passes in Colorado.

I agree with the anti-abortion view. I definitely think that once a life is created, no one has the right to take it away but nature/God/ whatever uncontrollable force you believe in. If a person doesn't feel as if they would make a fit parent or they don't want the responsibility, they should have thought of that before having sex.
ReplyDeleteAbortion should be illegal even in cases where it isn't the mother's fault that the pregnancy occurred. A baby that was conceived by rape is just as human as protected in God's justice as any other innocent human.
ReplyDeleteThe intentional taking of innocent human life should be prosecuted without exception and all humans should have equal protection under law as the Constitution says.
