Thank you, LaBèlla, for taking the time to share about my comments, and for sharing such personal things about yourself.
God does desire cheerful helping.
And I have been hearing about how many children in foster care are being abused. Ones can use them to get money.
So, laws alone can't make people love.
Abortion, I would say, is a product of the overall character of people of this world, including of "the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience" (in Ephesians 2:2).
There is the evil spirit of selfishness which effects people's nature. You can't talk a selfish person into becoming a caring person. Only God can change us to be truly loving.
So, what does this mean, really, that is needed?
Rape is not God's will yet every child is a gift from God.
A lot of abortions occur after contraception went wrong.
There are a lot of stuff that happens even though they are illegal, should we allow them?Perhaps, but it's still a limiting factor.
Abortion will never stop whether it's made illegal or not(it won't be). It'll just happen in shady places where the mother is at risk too.
Wow. Sex Ed is how people learn about birth control. And in states where sex Ed has been suppressed we have higher teen pregnancy rates and higher abortion rates. I was one of those teens, nobody taught me about birth control options, and I got pregnant.How so? People know that pregnancy is a result of sex. How is telling them that going to lower the amount of abortions?
I had an abortion and i’m not apologizing either.What an evil depraved culture we have become.
“I Had an Abortion and I’m Not Apologizing”
by Ken Ham
One billboard boldly proclaims, “I had an abortion and I’m not apologizing.” Another promotes the lie, “I had an abortion & it was just health care.” Now, true health care doesn’t involve murdering children. A third one claims, “I had an abortion and I’m not ashamed.”
One woman who participated in this campaign said, “I joined the #SayAbortion campaign because abortion is normal, abortion is health care, and I will not apologize for putting my life first.” Now that’s essentially an admission she sacrificed her child to the god of self!
Another woman wants to make the conversation about abortion “as easy as talking about a colonoscopy,” as if a doctor checking to ensure nothing is going wrong in a patient’s colon is the same as violently murdering a human life within the safety of his or her mother’s body. What depravity we see these women stooping to!
A third woman claims she knows the “joys of motherhood” because she probably would not have the kids she now has if she hadn’t had one of her children murdered. Oh, such evil we see around us!
Their billboards should state "I murdered my child and I'm not apologizing" or "I sacrificed my child to the god of self and I'm not apologizing.” As I have stated many times, abortion is nothing less than the sacrifice of unborn children to the god of self. The one woman’s statement that she put her life first clearly illustrates that. She selfishly chose to live the life she wanted at the expense of her own child’s life. This should wrench our hearts as it does the Lord’s: "The Lord hates . . . hands that shed innocent blood" (Proverbs 6:16–17).
Think of how women used to think in the past. They would trade their lives for their children in a heartbeat. They were heroes. Now we have culture of women who boast about being cowards. Sacrificing a child for yourself?? And we have a portion of the Church who support them with their votes, and non-votes. And these people claim to be more righteous than Trump?

Abortion is just one of the many issues politicians utilize to build their power base. So called "progressives" utilize the "Rules for Radicals" tenets as their political power getting Bible. Since the self-serving nature is easily pulled into divisive situations, a two party system like in the U.S. is fertile ground for the application of the "Rules for Radicals" tenets. Legitimization of abortion is the reward the abortion proponents get for the price of their vote and campaign contributions. Since women represent slightly over 50% of the population, appealing to that gender in all ways possible makes commonsense to any politician whose main purpose is self-serving power.What an evil depraved culture we have become.

Obviously I don’t agree. It’s pretty presumptuoud for you to assume I can’t enjoy a “rich, deep fellowship with god.” In fact I do enjoy deep fellowship with god.What do you think the effect of your attitude here is on your fellowship with God? The Bible says that God opens and shuts the womb. He made it possible for you to become pregnant. The little one developing within you was no "mistake." The Bible also says that children are a blessing from God. The nascent life within you God intended, not as a curse or burden, but as a gift, a blessing, from Him to you. So, you have destroyed something very precious, something God-given, and now stand defiant before God, refusing to acknowledge the wrongness of what you have done. I don't see how you'll ever enjoy rich, deep fellowship with God until your attitude about what you've done changes. Certainly, God cannot heal you of the spiritual wound of your sin until you acknowledge to Him that it is sin. God's aim in bringing you to a place of acknowledgment of your sin isn't simply to condemn you, but to put you in a place where you and He can enjoy holy, peaceful fellowship together.
Isaiah 59:2
2 But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear.
1 John 1:9-10
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.
Matthew 11:28-30
28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

Yes, there is how I need correction; I need not to get my attention only or mainly to how others might be wrong. Thank you, God bless youpray against the spirits of Strife and Accusation for yourself

"Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them." (Colossians 3:15)
No one is excused to get bitter. We all need to learn better how to love, instead.
Bitterness can abort a person from love, not only from human life.Bitterness can arrive after a very painful event.
