When Life is Cheap

Dan

Our future in this country depends highly upon our perception of life, and our perception is that life is cheap. We cannot say any lives matter if we are so willing to extinguish them. We cannot call for the end to violence, when we openly accept great violence inflicted upon the unborn.  Modern culture is saturated in apathy for unborn life. We are living in a time where the selling of parts from aborted children could not rally everyone into protecting life. In another time, maybe it could have, but not today. Today abortions are just a part of everyday life and a punchline for comedic material. We cannot rally for lives if the lives in the womb are disregarded. When we degrade unborn children to being “parasites” and “clumps of cells,” we have so degraded life.

Our perception of life as a culture and a nation will determine how many bodies lie dead in the streets of Chicago and Philadelphia. It determines whether or not one expresses unconditional love or cruel indifference. Our perception must begin with the children in the womb.
