There are times now in my life that I reflect on the work that I am doing and find it very odd. In its most simplistic sense, I find it odd that there is even a reason that I have to argue that killing babies is wrong and should be illegal. Fortunately, for most people, I don't have to argue too much because the facts speak for themselves and for most people when they see the hard evidence of what abortion is, the person's conscience reasons them to the conclusion that it is seriously wrong. Unfortunately, these are facts that most people do not want to see and in fact would prefer to remain ignorant of them or in denial of them. Hence the need for all the crazy stuff I do at CBR: http://abortionNO.org
Just a few days ago my son Gabriel was born. I have been looking at this incredibly beautiful creation so perfectly formed. He is utterly helpless and entirely dependent upon us to care for him. He cannot talk and although he looks around and is very alert for a newborn baby, I am not sure how much he can even think. Yet that makes him all the more precious. I would give up all things for the sake of this little boy.
I think about the pro-abortion arguments that attempt to justify killing babies with statements such as "viability" (which is another word for dependence), size, ability to think, level of development, etc. and I think how absurd these arguments are. And in its most simplistic sense I am reminded that abortion is nothing short of the most evil and disgusting act that man has ever devised. What kind of person takes a helpless, innocent human baby and rips him apart limb for limb? When I look at my son I am reminded that there are babies just like him who are being tortured to death every day. It is just wrong and utterly disgusting.
I am sometimes asked by people, "Why are you so passionate about abortion?". Or they may ask, "Why did you decide to do this work fulltime?" And while I understand the question at some level, for the most part I want to ask, "Why do you even have to ask me that?" Babies are being tortured to death all around us. Why are you not so passionate about abortion? Why are you not doing all you can to save these babies from this horror?
