What Might Have Been?

   Posted by: Sonny   in Abortion, Belief, Hope, Self, Spiritual Warfare

Jonathan Wallis was born on April 4 1975.  His father was a steelworker and his mother was a waitress.  He didn’t have much when he was a child because his parents split up early in his life.  But he was a good boy and when his mother had to work at two jobs he had a lot of time alone.  He loved to read and stayed out of serious trouble and after a rough start, did very well in school.  He put himself through college and graduated with two doctorates.  At the age of thirty one in 2006 he developed a laser treatment that removed tumors in the brain without invasive surgery.

Susie Johnston was also born in 1975.  Her parents were in college when she was born and the strain on their relationship was tremendous but, they worked through it and were able to raise Susie in a good, loving, giving environment.  She became a nurse and in 2003 moved to South America to open an orphanage and medical clinic.

Josh Burroughs was born in August 1975.  He was placed in a state home immediately because his mother was in a rehab program and didn’t want him.  He was moved around for a few years and was abused.  But the Burroughs, Bill and Gloria, adopted him at 10 years of age.  With a lot of love and affirmation they motivated him to also finish college and move into research.  Just this year he announced, along with his team, that they had developed a cure for AIDS.

By this time you might be saying to yourself, “Wait a minute.  I haven’t heard of any of this.”  And you would be right.  None of the above happened.  I made it all up.  I was just wondering, what might have been. 

These three fictitious people, born thirty three years ago, might have been real.  They might just be three of the over one million casualties of war that happened in the worst battleground that existed in 1975.  That battleground was the womb of a woman that was told it was her right to kill an innocent.  An unwanted and unplanned child could be slaughtered in the womb and discarded as trash by any woman for any reason.  What an age of compassion and enlightenment we live in. 

Legislation was passed as the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA), and signed into law in 1970.  This established the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Council on Environmental Quality

In 1972, the United Nations held the first Human Environment conference which led to the development of special government agencies like the UN Environment Program to help regulate and set environmental standards.  This was so we could make sure and protect this earth we live on. 

In 1973 came the Endangered Species Act.  Peter Singer was also working on his book, Animal Liberation, which was published in 1975.  His main thesis is that if women can have rights, then animals should too. 

Our enemy also won a major victory in 1973.  Around the same time so many came to the defense of the planet and the animals that live on it, a few men sold out to the enemy and overturned many state laws that had protected the innocent child. 

And look at how far we have come.  We have a multitude of laws protecting the environment and animals.  We have groups out to convince us of global warming and animal species extinction.  We can go to jail for inhumane treatment of an animal.  We can’t even, by law, put a dog out of its misery in old age but instead, must let a veterinarian do it, in case we cause it to inadvertently suffer.

Peter Singer has moved on to teaching that a child is not even a person until some elusive time when it obtains, “rationality, autonomy, and self-consciousness.” These are required for a child to have the “essential characteristics of personhood.” 

So it’s okay that since 1973, because of some of our most prestigious judges being sold out to the enemy, we, as a nation, have slaughtered almost forty million innocent children in the name of selfishness. 

Imagine the potential that has been wasted.  Some of the earlier casualties of this warfare would be reaching the ages of maximum contribution to society.  God had a plan and a set of abilities and gifts for each one of them.

In the fiction I wrote at the beginning of this article, Jonathan was aborted because the parents didn’t really love each other and didn’t want a kid.  Susie was aborted because her parents found her to be inconvenient and an unfair burden to come from an evening of fun.   And no one was there for Josh’s mother to tell her that she could do something different.  The center she was in just wanted the child out of the way. 

There are many reasons that some think they should murder the innocent.  And I really hate that I sound so harsh.  And I do not judge or condemn anyone that has made this decision.  God loves you no matter what you might have done.  He can forgive you for whatever you might have done. 

 

 

 

I just wanted to point out one thing. 

Satan told Eve a lie.  She believed it and brought all of us into a war we didn’t ask for.  He is still lying.  He is telling some that murder is okay and he is telling some that it doesn’t matter if others do it as long as they don’t.  If anyone is okay with abortion, whether a woman having one, or a politician okay with it, or a person ignoring this by their vote, they are serving the enemy.

Anyone that could be a party to the dismemberment of an innocent, helpless child is deceived by the enemy of all of our souls.

Don’t buy into his lie?

I really love you all

I agree with you 100%! How can someone say it’s okay to kill an innocent baby but not an animal? They call it animal abuse if you do but “legal” to kill a baby.

Sonny, it is awesome to hear your passion on this topic. I remember when we first met, you were unsure if it was right or wrong to give a woman the choice. I think she
already had a choice (the one where she conceived!!)
Anyway, since I was an unwed mother, and the option was there, I feel very strongly about this. You may guess that we are against abortion since we have 6 kids, 12 grandangels here on earth and 3 precious grandangels :halo: who never got the opportunity to be born here, but await us in heaven!!
One thought of mine is maybe if the “church”
was the church of God we could reach out to
these young ladies, not look down our nose at
them, thus proving to them that they have an option and a place to turn for acceptance and answers!!

Just read this and had to respond.

I am opposed to any type of abortion. More to the point I am against the killing of anyone, period! I am opposed to abortion, the death penalty, and the more I think about it I am even against the killing of people in war, no matter how “justified” it may seem. How can anyone justify killing, that is clearly not our place. God made us mortal so that we would die at the time he wanted us to, not when we feel that it should happen.

Human life is too precious a gift to just throw away in such fashion. Even though the idea is that we are only here for a short time, we should still have the opportunity to live this life. Who are we as a society to ok the murder of a murderer or a child? What sense does that make. “Let’s show people that killing is wrong, by killing them.” What lesson can be learned there?

Abortion is such an evil act that I have a difficult time being as kind as Sonny, but I know those who have done this will have to answer to God and not to me, so I try not to judge. Life begins when an egg is fertilized. That is simple science, but for convenience we have decided that science doesn’t matter here, just “choice”. I suppose with choice, I should be able to choose to kill a guy who cut me off in traffic because I feel that he will not help better society.

If we allowed this horrific act at any stage of life there would be mass chaos, but since innocent children cannot defend themselves it is ok.

God be with anyone who has done this. They deserve forgiveness as much as anyone else, but my human side comes out way too much on this. I try to forgive, but I refuse to understand even the slightest condoning of killing a person in any way.

Love to all

I understand your frustration. I wish I could forgive as easily as Christ does.

We have to remember there is a real war going on and it has eternal consequences.
We have to do our part to change things but it is not going to happen by keeping on doing what we have always done. Screaming and yelling across the aisle, forcing man to legislate something that he does not have in him to begin with, will not bring change. Change will only come by the proper use of our most effective weapon. Love.

Love insinuates and never obliterates. Love is persuasion and not coercion. Love cannot be beaten.

We must seek to bring about a change in people’s hearts and minds, not in the rules and laws they must follow. Only love will do this.

Love you

I commend your passion and theological posture regarding the preservation of life (before and after birth). I think the issue of non-violence as a Kingdom-marker (which distinguishes us from the worldly system) is too often ignored because it is so “radically un-p.c.”. Yet what is “radical” to the world seems no doubt “ordinary” in the Kingdom that looks like Jesus.

I want to apologize if my post in any way led any one to think I condone violence. Actually it is quite the opposite. I believe that all human life is precious not just for people who believe the way I do.

I just really can’t stand the tolerance of the law, and the twisted view it has on life and when it begins, just for political gain.

It is not just a moral view, it is also scientific.

That’s all.

I hope this clears that up. This is still new to me, so maybe it is not as clear as it was to me when I typed it.

Chris,

I didn’t misunderstand. You are against abortion, against the death penalty, and most of the way to being against all violence. That is pacifism and it seems to be what Jesus followed.

So you are in the best of company there.

Love you
