ABORTION: A REFLECTION OF OUR DECADENCE

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 6, 2024

     THIS IS BEING RECORDED BEFORE YESTERDAY’S RESULTS WERE IN. IN ADDITION TO THE PRESIDENTIAL AND CONGRESSIONAL OUTCOMES, TEN STATES HAD ON THEIR BALLOTS CONSTITUTIONAL OR OTHER MEASURES THAT WOULD EXPAND THE RIGHT TO ABORTION.

     WHAT IS IT THAT KEEPS THIS ISSUE AT THE FRONT OF OUR CULTURE? FOR THE CHRISTIAN IT CAN BE NOTHING MORE THAN AN ATTACK ON THE IMAGE OF GOD, WHICH SATAN HAS BEEN DOING SINCE THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

     MORE THAN 60 MILLION BABIES HAVE BEEN SACRIFICED SINCE 1973, MOSTLY ON AN ALTAR OF CONVENIENCE. THE CULTURE TELLS WOMEN AND MEN THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT AND IGNORE THE WILL OF GOD WITH NO CONSEQUENCES. IT IS DIFFICULT TO REVERSE THAT ATTITUDE THROUGH THE POLITICAL SYSTEM, BECAUSE IT IS A MORAL AND SPIRITUAL MATTER AND MUST BE ADDRESSED ON THAT LEVEL.

     IF WE ARE MATERIAL AND ENERGY SHAPED BY PURE CHANCE IN A RANDOM UNIVERSE WITH NO AUTHOR OF LIFE AND NO PURPOSE FOR LIVING OTHER THAN SELF, THEN ABORTION IS JUST ANOTHER CHOICE.

     BUT IF WE SEE OURSELVES AS MADE IN THE IMAGE OF AN INFINITE PERSONAL GOD WHO LOVES US AND HAS  A PLAN FOR EVERY LIFE, THEN THE ONLY CHOICE IS TO FOLLOW GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS WHEN IT COMES TO SEX AND LIFE.

ABORTION ON DEMAND IS A REFLECTION OF OUR DECADENCE, NOT IT’S CAUSE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
