Listen.
The silence is deafening.
It resonates in the hallways and classrooms of our schools.
It is evident at family gatherings and dinners.
It is heard in our workforce.
It is felt in the majority of American homes.
It is even found in churches throughout the United States.
Listen.
The silence thunders on our deaf ears.
Listen and you will hear.
The sound of dismembered bodies.
The cries of death by saline solution.
Listen to the silence.
Aunts and uncles robbed of nieces and nephews.
Grandparents who will never know their grandchildren.
Children who will never know the joy of siblings.
Listen closely.
Homes devoid of laughter.
Heartbeats stopped.
Babies knitted together by God terminated.
Do you hear it?
It is the sound of aborted babies.
It is the child who was not allowed to live.
It’s the silent grief and guilt of women.
The loud silence of women’s lives changed forever.
Too ashamed to share their darkest secret.
Listen.
It is time to respond to the silent cries for help.
Oppose the Freedom of Choice Act, which President Obama has said he will sign into law. Murder will become allowable at any time during the nine months of pregnancy. FOCA forces all doctors, Christian and non-Christian, to perform abortions or risk losing their license. The same God who counts the hairs on our head is grieving over our inaction.
There is no such thing as pro-choice. It’s either Pro-Life or Pro-Death.
Some statistics:
