Unborn Victims of Violence Act - A Very Bad Idea!

Webmaster's Note: For more clarification, please read the article Incrementalsim - A Lie from the Pit of Hell!
This bill has already been passed in the House and is moving to the Senate. Make your voice heard!

As Congress begins deliberations on this act that ostensibly puts value on the lives of wanted children in the womb, but does absolutely nothing for those children in the womb whose parents do not want them, we have three words - STOP THE NONSENSE! The rider attached to the Unborn Victims of Violence Act says that this bill would not apply to abortionists. Who does more physical harm to children in the womb than the local abortionist?

Though well intentioned, our Congressman in the beltway of Washington, D.C., in a desperate attempt to ameliorate their pro-life constituencies, are sponsoring bills (Parental Notification, Parental Consent, etc.) that are so watered down they end up denying the very Word of God. This is exactly what is happening with the Unborn Victims of Violence Act. It is not all right to kill children if their parents have been notified, if their parents have given consent, or if their parents don't want them.

"No Christian Congressman can sign this bill because no Christian Congressman has been given the moral authority by God to sign such heinous legislation!" said Rev. Flip Benham, National Director of Operation Rescue. "We are not called to make distinctions between which one is more valuable in God's sight - the wanted or the unwanted. We are called to speak for them all!"

Though the ladies on the pro-abortion side have been screaming in the national media that this legislation is an attempt to overturn Roe v. Wade, nothing could be further from the truth. Shakespeare said it best, '… the lady doth protest too much, me thinks.' They intuitively know that if this legislation is passed it will forever set in concrete the difference between a wanted and an unwanted child. Just what they had in mind all the time!
