Stand Up For Life

 



Evening Prayer (1928 BCP, thank you very much) is said, birds sing, a dog rests after a hard day of collecting welfare, and Fr. Louis teaches something Mexican in the church hall. And all seems well with the world, at least from this rural Texan point of view.

You wouldn't know, from this vantage point, that 10 states in the Union allow abortion up to birth. You might be excused for glossing over the fact that our country's 39 Trillion Dollars in debt and that Western Europe's committing demographic suicide. They've apparently lost the will to live, along with Massachusetts, Minnesota, Alaska, Colorado Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont.

You'll note all these are Democrat strongholds. Why, we ask, does the Left hate life to the extent of killing babies, which is exactly what we're talking about. Ostensibly it's all about women's freedom and autonomy; to be a factor in the means of production and so achieve meaning and happiness. Babies stand in the way of that, obviously, so get rid of them and be free. In other words, I want a career and cash and having a baby doesn't fit in with that, so I'll choose wymxns healthcare.




Or something like that, but there's a deeper reason or animus behind this demonic slaughter. Nihilism. The Left hates Western culture and its Faith, values, and aesthetic; it hates Western civilization itself. As Roger Scruton reminds us, for every value or achievement our forbears thought valuable there's a university course deconstructing the same.

Destroying the family and convincing women to go against their most natural instinct, to bear and raise children, in fact to kill them, is perhaps the most heinous of crimes. Their end is destruction and there will be a reckoning. Divine justice demands it.


You Satan

In the meanwhile, Massachusetts Governor  Maura Healey signed literal infanticide into law as her female cheerleaders clapped and gushed, a scene from Hell. At the time of writing, neither the Pope nor any member of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops have excommunicated Maura, a self-proclaimed Catholic. You can, apparently, kill babies unrepentantly and still receive Holy Communion. Burning coals spring to mind, there will be a Reckoning.

Stand For Life,

That was something out of Shakespear, they needed a bubbling cauldron to complete the scene. The face of Evil looks normal.

Stand up for humanity.

Meet the new Moloch. Same as the old Moloch.

Those who want post-pregnancy abortion so much should show a little leadership and go first.

Thanks to LSP for speaking strongly and clearly. It would be refreshing if the subject matter wasn't so sad.

I remember being horrified when told of Aztec human sacrifice. But we shall be judged much more harshly than the Aztecs. They, after all, didn't have sonograms.

It's not good, Surfer.

LSP said...

In short supply, Mr Wolf.

LSP said...

It'll probably come to that, Wild.

LSP said...

Aon, I try.. And yes, it's beyond hideous.

Infidel, could the Church, please, rein these demons in?

The left procreates through indoctrination of the children of others who haven't been aborted.
