What happens when the law is evil or ineffective?
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on our souls!
I could not help but think of Colossians 1 as I read this article. It's interesting to me that a number of the defenses I've seen of this incident is that the interviewers were deceptive in their practices and that nothing illegal was taking place. Is this issue finally removing the cover the abyss that is our collective heart? It seems that debates no longer deal with morals or ethics, but the value is only now defined by the legality of something. That's a scary place to be, and I've heard many political figures on both sides refer to our country as a nation of laws.Did we think that these abortions were almost all painless, like some sick pet being put to sleep, euthanized? Did we not know that the abortionist stabs the baby in the womb, or tears it to pieces coming out? And the more developed the baby, the greater the pain and the suffering and the bloodier the inescapable death?
But if one believes an unborn baby is not a human being, not a human life, why object to selling its body parts?
Trash haulers and garbage men find uses for what they pick up. Scrap metal collectors find folks who want to buy it. Conservation they call it. Why would we think that abortionists, who regard fetuses as human tissue, not human beings, were any different?
We have long known and praised family members of the victims in auto accidents who volunteer the organs of their loved ones to save or extend the lives of others.
What makes this tape so different, so appalling, is that, at some level, there a sense in all of us, which ideological indoctrination cannot wholly suppress, that, morally, something terrible is happening here.
