A Voice for Hope: Respect

I have heard this same argument over and over and over again, how that in some situations it is "humane" to choose abortion than to let a child live. They could grow up poor and hungry, they could be abused, they could have a disease like MS or a thousand other things so it would be better to just abort them and save them the pain and suffering. I will NEVER for the life of me be able to wrap my head around that heartless totalitarian mentality. They usually want to start on this idea by be-crying the "rights" of a person to do what they want to with their own body, and if "their own" body were the only one affected, well I still don't agree with killing but that would be their ultimate decision. That particular situation is also called suicide not abortion. But abortion is the taking of someone else's life and it is the ultimate usurp of another person's rights because without the most basic and important right...the right to life no other rights matter or even come into play.
Case in point here is a conversation that I had with one pro-choicer very recently that commented on a very simple pro-life pic that I shared on my personal Facebook page. I have blacked out the name for privacy purposes. I don't know this man personally he was he said the friend of a friend and saw my post on his feed because of that. Here is the graphic followed by the comments...

No one can know how a person's life will end up. Even if they are the victim of some terribly hard times, and or abuse or whatever their situation may be...they could go on to live a very good and outstanding life afterwards in spite of all their hardships. In fact some of the very best people and leaders do just that! The bottom line is NO ONE has the right to play God and decide that it's all right to kill another person period!
What are your thoughts on this?

It's time for everyone to start treating people like they would want to be treated themselves. Post abortive women should NOT be cursed at and treated with disrespect. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 We are all sinners and do you really think you are going to help ANYONE or change anyone's mind about abortion if you come at them with hate and cursing and calling them names? Treat EVERYONE with respect and love them like JESUS told us too!

Now by doing this that doesn't mean that you agree with their former actions at all! Or that we don't tell them the truth but you can tell them the truth and teach them while treating with respect like a human being. They will listen to what you are saying MUCH more that way than they will if you treat them with indignation and hate. We want to help these women understand that LIFE is the right choice and help them to see that there are MANY crisis pregnancy centers and other organizations out there that are ready and more than willing to help them and their babies! But you will never get the chance to help them if you alienate the mothers!

I have actually even heard (and this makes me sick to think that a grown person who calls themselves pro-life and sometimes even try to call themselves Christians) that some people who stand outside of abortion centers throw raw meat at the women who are going in and call them vile names and curse them. THAT is not the way to change their minds!!! Would you listen to someone that treated you like this? No you wouldn't. That is sick and childish and it won't help them listen to anything that the Pro-life cause has to say with those kinds of actions. And no true Christian would ever treat anyone this way either! To reach these people we need to treat them as we would want to be treated ourselves with respect and like a person. Because if you curse and throw things and take that kind of approach you are in fact helping the Pro-choice side infinitely more than the Pro-life one! You are doing more harm to the Pro-life cause than good, and you could be helping to loose even more lives by this type of ignorant behavior.

Many of the women who are considering abortion are very young many of them are being pressured by others many times those closest to them to have an abortion. Many have been told by them all around them that abortion is the way to go and that they have no other choice if they want to have a normal life. They are scared, they feel alone, and many have no idea that there are countless programs and people out there more than willing to help them and their babies and that will help them both so that both of them can have a chance at a better and happy life! But we are never going to reach these people who need us most if we or others treat them the way that I have mentioned above that some people who profess to be Pro-life are treating them. This will only push them further into the grips of abortion and Planned Parenthood and their lies that abortion is the quick, safe, and easy way out. It's NOT and we need to reach these women and help them not condemn them and push them further toward an abortion that will kill their innocent child and wound them for life.

Let's love them both the mother's and the babies and fight to save both of their lives because both of them are our brothers and sisters that is what being truly Pro-life is all about! It's about love, not hate there is already plenty of that on the other side and that is what we are trying to END. Let's love our neighbors as ourselves as Jesus taught us to do and help teach others that abortion is NEVER the right decision. That there is help and hope out there and fight to end abortion for the mother's and children's sakes. EVERYONE deserves better than abortion!

The Pro-Choice belief of killing to be humane

Christians and Pro-lifers should act like what they say they are
