The behavior of the Feminist Front at the recent memorial service for aborted babies was almost as obnoxious as what the group stood for.

It would take a letter itself just to complain about their extremely rude interruptions and swearing, but I’m not going to dwell on that. Instead I think it’s important that we should fight their sick ideas.

Every year thousands of babies die in the most brutal fashion. Babies who, although unborn, have brainwaves, a heartbeat, and can feel pain! It should seem inconceivable that such an issue is so debatable, yet it’s tearing the nation apart.

The scientific evidence is all on our side, even top doctors that pushed Roe vs. Wade have joined, and yet the Anti-life lobby is battling ferociously. Why? Because of the same selfish arguments that slaveowners made 130 years ago.

Whereas slaveowners said slaves were only three-fifths of a person, anti-lifers say that the unborn aren’t human, but only a bunch of cells.

Whereas, regarding separate human beings, slave owners claimed “the right to control their own property,” so goes the “control their own bodies” argument.

Whereas abolitionists at that time were considered by many to be crazed fanatics instead of promoters of a just cause, so are the pro-lifers of today.

Call me an optimist, but I’d like to think that perhaps a hundred years from now it will be inconceivable to any that such an issue was ever debatable, for you see, we of the pro-life movement are the modern day abolishinists.

And perhaps someday as our grandchildren will be able to take their children to a monument that was once an abortuary, they will have a moment of silence for the millions of aborted babies, and a prayer of thanks for those who fought to abolish that holocaust.
