So there is a group of animal activists whose goal is to protect the lives of animals.
If we see a story of someone who has neglected, beaten, killed animals, many of us are upset and angry at that person who created such a violent, brutal act against animals- who I will go so far as to say are innocent.
I am not allowed to hurt or kill my dog, Sampson- especially if my reason was because it is more convenient for me to get rid of him.
I own him, he's MY dog--shouldn't I be allowed to do what I want?
No, it is cruel, it is brutal, it is harming not even someONE, but someTHING.
So rightly so that we should get upset over cruel and violent acts.
Even if the animal is the possession of the owner.
But what about the harming of the someONE's?
Why do we, as a nation, not get upset with the cruel, violent, torturous act of abortion? I understand the argument that it's the woman's body and we shouldn't be able to tell her what to do. I don't agree with it, but I understand that argument.
"It's MY body"
well, sure, "It's MY dog" but that doesn't mean I have the right to take an act of violence to it.
I also understand the whole rape aspect of it.
But really, after going to college and seeing exactly how many friends were raped and how many had abortions over convenience, I feel I can say with confidence that most abortions are done b/c of convenience.
But even so, yes, it is the woman's body. But, shouldn't the fact that it is brutal, violent, and murder override that? You can't tell me a fetus doesn't feel anything. As early as 20 weeks, that baby responds to what is happening on the outside. Spicy food? It feels it. Loud music? It feels it. It FEELS it!
Someone who kills a pregnant woman gets two counts of murder, it doesn't add up!
And so we, as a nation, sit back and allow it to happen b/c we are afraid, and we don't care enough.
And Jesus Christ was innocent. He was violently and brutally murdered.
If you don't think so, check the scriptures, physically, technically, it was TORTURE.
And babies are innocent. In their quiet, private, dark, SAFE place in the womb, they are PULLED apart, BURNED, or whatever method is used. To kill something that is alive is painful. Period.
Not to mention the fact that they never had a chance to voice THEIR opinion of THEIR life.
And that brings us back to the animal activists. They are the voice for creatures who can't speak.
And we listen to them.
Sad, truly sad that we see lives as animals as such a priority, and not the lives of babies.
Truly sad.
