Couples should not be allowed to shirk their commitment to themselves and to the unborn child by having an abortion. If this trend of eliminating the consequences of our actions when we don't like them is allowed to continue, it could lead to chaos. Euthanasia, as sick as it may seem, is already knocking on our door with people like Jack Kevorkian in Michigan already supporting it. And infanticide, the killing of infants due to defects or abnormalities, may be only years away. Abortion is a progression we can not afford, leading to the most hideous and heinous crimes imaginable.
Abortion also leads to a degradation of our health care system.
Most important of all, as a result of abortion the sanctity of life has been devalued. Kids fifty years ago played with squirt guns, but now they carry real guns and kill at the slightest offense. Clearly then, abortion is a choice, but a choice which lowers the sanctity of life, while adding to the decline of responsibility and morality already so prominent in our society. We must instill within ourselves and our children a sense of value and accountability for our actions as well as an absolute respect for the life, which is evident within us, no matter what the circumstances may be. The following animation is to show what takes place in a Partial Birth Abortion.
