Does it Matter?

INTERNET SHOCK: COUPLE LETS YOU VOTE ON WHETHER THEY GET AN ABORTION

After my first knee jerk reaction from the attention grabbing headline. I started looking farther into the story behind the headline.

A married couple in Minnesota, who have had three miscarriages, and are pregnant for the fourth time despite bad outcomes in the past. Wants our opinion on whether to keep the child or not?

The first thing that crosses your mind is this is a hoax. The second crosses your mind that these people are lost and are a typical unmarried couple who don't want the inconvenience of a child in their life.

Well when you read the whole story,it is obvious this married couple trying for the fourth time to have a child, are going to keep their baby. They are also making a statement.

Does it matter? These people have taken this opportunity to use their real life situation to pose a question. Are we serious about defending the unborn? Are they grabbing for their 15 minutes of fame? I don't know, but as a person who believes in the sanctity of life, it doesn't matter. I appreciate the opportunity to step to the plate for my values.

As of this posting the site is showing 80% for give birth, and 19% for getting an abortion. There have also been about 3,000 votes since I have been on the site.

The Pro Life conscience of America is coming forward, and carrying the day. So now the question arises again. Does it matter? Pete and Alisha Arnold the couple who are asking this question, are calling for the Pro Life Community, to put their money where their mouth is. They are right.

It is time for us to move forward by whatever means Constitutionally necessary, and put a ban on abortion once and for all. That includes no exemption for rape and incest. I am at this time going to leave in life of the mother, because I am unsure about that. Yes an abortion doctor will come up with some kind of medical excuse. But I can't say I can come between a woman honestly deciding between her life, and her babies. I also can't say I know any women who would chose their life over their child's if they truly love the child. All other excuses for abortion are out the window in my book, as a self centered denial of God's will.

So let us win this war, let's have the Pro Life Community accomplish what it says it exists for. Until we do that, it really doesn't matter the Pro Life movement exists.

Please take a moment to vote at this website.

Because it really does matter that we stand up, and make a statement for the unborn, who cannot speak for themselves, no matter what the reason. We are asked to make this statement now. Let's make it.
