Roe v. Wade 35 years later

To the Editor:

Jan. 22 marks the 35th year since the legalization of abortion (Roe V. Wade). Upwards of 40 million abortions have been performed since then.

This case was a fraud and the woman who was the party in the case is working to reverse it. It is a clear issue, medical monitoring equipment has clearly shown babies being killed in an abortion.

David Kupelian writes in "The Marketing of Evil," "Over the last few decades our nation embraced the notion that total sexual freedom, without marriage, without restriction of any kind, is a right-and entitlement. We've been seduced in separating sexuality from its God-ordained purpose - the sanctified union between husband and wife, within the protective confines of marriage, from which issues the most precious of all thing, our children….. Today, in America, the unborn baby is the obvious victim of abortion holocaust…."

With all the noise about human rights today, the sound pales in comparison to the right to life given us by our Creator.

If we fail to protect the lives of the helpless, will God continue to bless us?

Let us put an end to abortion.
