Schizophrenic Law

Schizophrenic Law

Dear Champion of the Lord and the Preborn,

The Lord richly bless you! Recently this article was sent my way about a case in Texas. It seems the depravity of man knows no limits. Following the article are comments by Frank Joseph MD and an article I wrote called "Laci and Connor Peterson and Schizophrenic Law." Prayerfully it will reveal the folly, confusion, and the deadly fruits of men as they reject the one, true, Lawgiver, God, and seek to be a law and god unto themselves. Again, if you find any merit please pass it on to others.

IN KING JESUS' SERVICE,

Rusty

Texas Man Convicted for Attack on Pregnant Woman, Killing Twin Babies

Lufkin, TX (LifeNews.com) -- A man who attacked his pregnant girlfriend and killed her twin unborn child was convicted for two homicides under a Texas law that allows prosecutors to charge such criminals for two crimes when they assault pregnant women and kill or injure their unborn children.

Gerardo Flores, a 19 year-old Lufkin man, received an automatic sentence of life in prison for the deaths. He caused the death of the babies by stepping on her girlfriends' stomach, producing miscarriages.

Erica Basoria, his girlfriend, admitted she asked Flores to help her kill the babies, but she can't be prosecuted because women have a legal right to abortions.

“When I was four months pregnant, I began to show, and at that time I decided that I should have gotten an abortion," Basoria said in an affidavit. Basoria has told authorities she had been trying to kill her unborn children for weeks before Flores attacked them.

Defense attorneys claimed Basoria punched herself while Flores stepped on her and alleged that authorities couldn't tell who was actually responsible for the death of the twins.

Ryan Deaton, the defense attorney, asked in conversations with reporters, "How can two people conspire to do something like this and only one of them be punished? How can that be fair?"

Flores admitted in a taped statement to police that he stepped on Basoria's stomach several times the week before she had the miscarriages. He also admitted to punching her in a fight hours before the death of the babies.

"Talk about injustice. If a woman gives permission to an abortionist to kill her unborn children, it is perfectly legal, but if she gives permission to her boyfriend to do the killing, that is illegal.

WOW! Makes no sense. And to make matters worse, the woman who plotted the death of her children, gets off scot-free.

The question is -- would the doctor, who has a license to kill, stomps on the woman's stomach -- would he also get life in prison? Or, does the killing have to be done with surgical instruments?

The legalized killing of little children in the womb has made our laws a JOKE.

This is what you can expect when a country makes it legal to kill little children. It throws justice on its ear. NOTHING makes sense anymore.

For the boyfriend to get life in prison means only one thing -- there is no difference between an unborn child and a born child and rightly so.

Whether the development takes place in the womb or out of the womb, should not make a difference -- in both instances, the child requires help to survive.

We were warned, "Man reaps what he sows." Now, the country has to live with laws that were written by people with the brains of a ten-year old.

What am I saying -- sorry, ten-year olds, you would NEVER make a law that children in the womb could be legally killed. If anyone doubts this -- just ask a ten-year old."

Laci and Connor Peterson and Schizophrenic Law
by Rev. Rusty Lee Thomas

"We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capability of mankind for self-government; upon the capacity of each and every one of us to government ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God." -James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and Chief Architect of the Constitution

Scott Peterson has recently been booked on two counts of murder in the deaths of his wife and son, Laci and Connor Peterson. The double homicide charge has thrown the pro-abortion crowd into a state of panic. You see Connor was an unborn child in the womb of Laci at the time of his unfortunate demise. Pro-abortion groups, like the Morris County NOW organization are up in arms and voicing opposition to the double murder charge. Case in point is this quote by their President, Mavra Stark. Stark stated, “If this is murder, well, then any time a late-term fetus is aborted, they could call it murder.” Exactly!!!

This particular murder case is troubling to those who support abortion on demand for two reasons. It first reveals what the abortion industry and its advocates would prefer to remain hidden, the humanity of the baby in the womb. This is especially grievous to them when the media, the law of the land, and the state that enforces the law acknowledges this truth. It calls into question what has been purposely censored for over thirty years since the infamous Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court Decision. If the child in the womb is a human being, a person, like you and me, then the law of the land should protect its life, just as it does for us all.

This concept was even acknowledged by Harry Blackman, the Supreme Court Justice, who penned the tragic ruling in favor of abortion. He wrote, “The appellee and certain amici argue that the fetus is a "person" within the language and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment. In support of this, they outline at length and in detail the well-known facts of fetal development. If this suggestion of personhood is established, the appellant's case, of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the Amendment.“ Based upon this premise, the abortion industry has a vested interest to remove the notion of personhood as far from the preborn as possible. If they fail, as they surely must, then the whole basis of Roe vs. Wade collapses about them like a house of cards.

History records in bloody detail what happens when certain people groups are denied the status of a person. Laws that once protected human life were removed by judicial fiat or by a dictator's decree. As a result, the vulnerable and weak became a prey to injustice bent on their extinction or enslavement. This was true with Nazi Germany who denied the personhood of Jews in Hitler's death camps. Hitler considered them sub-human. This same pattern can be observed when it comes to American slavery that denied our black brothers and sisters were fully human in the Dred Scott Supreme Court Decision. Thankfully, we all now condemn that godless, unjust, ruthless, and merciless legacy. America stands united with one voice that declares, “They were wrong back then!” The problem is, can America say that we are wrong today?

Prayerfully, the Scott Peterson case will be used to convict us all with indisputable evidence that abortion is a grave sin against God and a brutal crime against humanity. The preborn child must be recognized for what it is, a person that should be protected under the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. The Fourteenth Amendment states, “ All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

The second problem the abortion industry and America must contend with in the Scott Peterson case is the glaring lack of a singular standard as a basis of law. It exposes the inconsistency, the hypocrisy, and the schizophrenia that has made a mockery to the concepts of law, justice, and civil government. Law in America has become a Rubik's Cube that we twist and turn to further our political agendas. It is no longer a fixed standard that secures justice for all.

It was Blackstone, the inspiration behind the Declaration of Independence's statement, "The law of nature and of nature's God," that historically gave America her source for law. Blackstone stated, "Upon these two foundations, the law of nature (the eternal laws of good and evil) and the law of revelation (found only in the Scriptures), depend all human laws. That is to say, no human laws should be allowed to contradict these." Roe vs. Wade and its evil fruit of decriminalized murder and its assault against the very basis of law bears witness to what happens when we allow human law to contradict God's law. It always ends in disaster. We simply cannot continue to violate the eternal laws of right and wrong and thrive as a people.

Martin Luther King Jr. gave this apologetic on law by stating, "...There are two types of law, just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One not only has a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that, ‘an unjust law is no law at all.' Now, what is the difference between the two? How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas, ‘An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law.'"

According to these reputable men, the Holy Bible, and history, the law of God is the basis for all human law. It is binding upon all people, at all times, and in every nation. It is the law of God that reveals true reality in this universe and contains the righteous, holy character of the God of the Bible. The law of God defines for us the way the world should work and how man is to fit within its context to be blessed. The law of God ultimately reveals for man His desperate need for a Savior, Jesus Christ, as mankind rejects and violates God's commandments routinely.

America must relearn that neutrality is a myth and that someone is indeed legislating morality. The question is, whose premise of right and wrong, whose ideas of good and evil, and whose philosophy of morality undergirds the laws of the land? As God alone is the only lawgiver, the choice before man is either to uphold or to break God's law. If we continue to break God's law, it will eventually break us. This is the hard lesson of history and is the present day battle that is raging for the souls of men, the lives of our children, and the future of our nation. America we must repent, end Roe vs. Wade, return to the God of our Fathers, and the Biblical principles that made us a great and mighty nation. For the truth is, apart from the law of God as the basis for all human law, there is no way for America to experience “liberty and justice for all.”
