I have been furious most of the day. I had a difficult time working. I was foaming at the mouth. Below is a conversation I had with a factory worker at my job.
The news was discussing what role abortion would play in the election. The following conversation started.
Factory worker: The economy is going to pot and they are making abortion the key issue?
Tamara: I am all for that.
Factory worker: I would rather have a job.
Tamara: I would rather be penniless than be a murder.
Factory worker: It depends what your definition of murder is. If you were raped?
Tamara: If I were raped I would keep the baby.
Factory worker: What if the man had aids and the baby would likely have it.
Tamara: I will not punish a baby for a crime committed by someone else.
Factory Worker: Exactly don't punish the baby. Abort it.
Let's pick this conversation apart.
1. The news was discussing if abortion would dramatically sway voters. They wanted to know if it was a key issue. First off I think this discussion is pointless. Abortion is not a political issue. Candidates should not use abortion as a way to collect more votes. Abortion is murder. Our government is discussing voting poles when babies are being murdered. I don't think abortion should be used as a strategy to win the election. That is cold and heartless.
2. The man said he would rather have a job then worry about abortion. How American. Be successful and make money at any expense. I bet he never stopped to consider that the financial crisis is probably retribution for the murdering of innocent children. When I said I would rather be penniless I am not being an idealist. It is the complete truth.
3. Then the man said it depends on what your definition of murder is. Huh?? I am not positive but I am pretty sure murder is killing someone. I might need a dictionary to confirm this. But, I don't think it depends on my definition of murder. Murder is killing someone. That is pretty black and white.
4. The rape argument is used so often. The truth is very few abortions have to do with rape. In any case murder is still murder. If the man had aids and the baby might contract it you should still carry the child. Why? We would not kill an adult who found out they had AIDS. Having a disease does not make anyone disposable. This is bordering of eugenics. Hitler used this reasoning to kill millions.
5. His last comment about aborting the baby sums up the pro choice-argument. He said that a harder punishment would allow the baby to live. This is a faulty perception. Life is valuable even when it is difficult. We are living in a culture that embraces the easy way out. That is why suicide is on the rise. This man was a perfect example of America's selfishness and materialism. I would rather have a job than save the unborn!?? Lord have mercy.

I have felt disturbed about legal murder in society in the last few weeks. This murder is taking place through pills for preventing egg implantation and post-pill abortion, a practise among Christians that cover up the sin with "God knows we are not perfect; Christianity is in the heart".
I have for long been disturbed, but not prayerless, in a an evolving culture that culturizes the Bible in order to disobey God and depart from the ancient path of Christianity. In the case of abortion, murder is cultural??. Murder in America is different from murder in Ghana since both are different cultures??? What is true to Tamara is not true to the factory worker since Tamara and the factory worker have different cultures. The factory worker is really on his way to "heaven"?, even if he dies with his murder culture, as long as he falls for the growing "Christian" munipulation to force people to sow seeds to bribe God for huge fortunes, without avoiding worldliness, without living holy, and without fully repenting from sins, and without praying for a sorf heart of faith in obeying God(Romans 12:1-2, Genesis 17:1-2, Matthew 5:48, Ezekiel 33:11-20, Galitians 5:19-21).
Different heavens will be created as large in number as that of new bibles from hell that will be created to take care of different cultures and allow make-me-good-messages to accommondate ll cultures.
Is abortion really a sin? may be not since cultures are different????
May be we can live the life of the Bible and see the glory of God as of old!!!!!!!!
