A Board Certified OB/GYN, Dr. William Lile, discusses New York State’s Reproductive Health Act. I would challenge anyone who voted for this horrible legislation to explain to me what it has to do with “Health”.
As reported in Townhall, and other media, New York Democrats celebrated the passage of the bill by clapping and smiling in the state house upon its passage.

For all that the Left claims that science is better than religion, they don’t even give credence to science when it doesn’t agree with what they want.
New York State’s actions are disgusting, but
Why not give these breeding mares (I will NOT refer to them as mothers) who think they have a right to murder their child right up until the baby’s head is out of the birth canal a six month grace period after the baby is born to let them decide if their child should live? Really, where should this line be drawn? If New York Democrats want to delude themselves, at what arbitrary point in time in their world does a baby become human?

I actually saw someone seriously say on FB that we should decriminalize murder for parents and children of elderly parents because there are times a parent can’t take care of a child and death would be better than suffering. Sometimes children are terminally ill and should not be forced to suffer. The same argument for elderly parents. People are evil and in my opinion it started with abortion, it was a way to desensitize and I also believe that’s why they pushed for animal rights, another way to make human life not be important.

It sets my teeth on edge when people wrap themselves in the blanket of moral superiority and say they are in favor of death because they don’t want someone to have to suffer. I wrote a guest post on someone’s blog about why I am pro-life and talked about it in my post.
Everyone suffers, but these demons who support this death over suffering nonsense can’t be bothered to look for “the beauty that can come from ashes.”
Everyone suffers, so let these death advocates die first. Let them live and die by their own rules and leave the rest of the world out of it.
I suffer everyday from Type 1 diabetes and I bet I get a lot more out of life then those worms do out of theirs.

Have you ever read about redemptive suffering? I am not sure whether it is a Catholic only teaching, but personally, I not only accept it, I find it to be sublimely beautiful. It gives hope when we would otherwise be hopeless, reason when we cry why, and unites us in care for our brethren, the Body of Christ.
I believe Christ told us to take up our cross and follow him for a reason, and he wasn’t speaking symbolically.

IMO, the Catholic Church is one of the last to indicate that there is redemptive suffering. It should not be so, seeing as St. Paul’s letters and the Psalms are full of such doctrine.
When I hear or read someone’s remark asking why would the God we follow allow suffering, my first thought usually is to take the person seriously and indicate that their question is not unusual…it has been asked for thousands of years. Then I recommend they read St. Paul and the Psalms…and if they really want to know the answer they will search for it. I also recommend they read St. Augustine’s insightful, discerning commentary on our relationship to our Triune God.
This is an excellent article on St. Augustine’s writings about suffering. As it indicates, modern man may think he was a nut, telling people suffering is good for us…but what the good saint says is Biblically true….

I have not heard of it in a great deal of depth. I don’t believe that what I suffer from can be combined with Christ’s suffering on the cross to help atone for sins. Only Christ can make atonement for us.
Suffering can bring us to a place where we realize that without Christ we really can do nothing, as the Scriptures say. It also reminds us that this world is passing away. And I take heart in the knowledge that the new body I will have someday will not have diabetes anymore.

A sad day, indeed…but look up…many doctors will refuse to accept the killing of children in the womb. New York will become a mecca for death even more so than it is right now. However, people of conscience will look upon abortion with broken hearts.
Canada has no law at all restricting or prohibiting abortion. The majority of doctors, however, refuse to kill a child past a certain gestation month (can’t remember what that is…20 weeks maybe).
Within my family there have been four abortions that I know of…three before 1960 when it was still illegal and done by the family doctor; and one in the 2000s. I’m quite sure I’m the only one left in the family who knows about two of them; and perhaps the daughter of one knows about the third family member’s abortion.
I have no knowledge of who knows of the fourth one as I’ve not mentioned her confidential revelation to anyone else. She knows I’m pro-life but telling her I’d always love her no matter what her decisions are in life relieved her mind a great deal.
It’s quite amazing, but my family has always had the most adorable babies (some not so great as adults—LOL!). I look at the precious baby faces of my mother’s and father’s siblings and all their children/grandchildren/great-grandchildren and it’s heartbreaking to think that some children’s lives have been lost without ever having a photo taken to remember them by.

You remember a few years back when there was a story a few years back about a viable aborted baby left in a cart to die as it was supposed to be aborted? Parents didn’t want it and hospital said it didn’t have the right, it said, to take it and nurture it.
That population control thing will eventually evolve to the euthanization of ‘damaged’ children, adults and the elderly. It will require a sea change in our culture but it won’t be that hard to do, especially playing on the issues youth has with the elderly and by portraying the ‘damaged’ as useless consumers consuming goods and services the ‘healthy’ should be using themselves. See why we have to get rid of religion?

Several times now on Facebook I have stumbled across some heated conversations where young people, I don’t know what generation they are, in their late twenties/early thirties mostly, express outrage at baby boomers owning 80% of the wealth in this country. I haven’t checked that figure I don’t care. I just get into it with them about how we worked for it, why should they just “get it” because it’s there?
What’s alarming to me is that these are not young liberals I am talking to. Several are liberterians, and they are conservative on most issues.

I have been thinking a lot lately about children and thier lost innocence. It is evil. Little children do not understand what is being pushed on them about sex. I would not have at such an early age.
Then there is that crazy “mother” who is a doctor in TX who is giving sex change drugs to her 6 YO son even though when he is with his father he is a normal boy.
Then the “drag queen” boys being paraded around shown with and performing for adult “males” throwing money at them (Munchaussen’s by proxy or just greedy parents?)
Now NY has legalized baby killing.
Is there a group formed specifically to protect children’s innocence? If not could it be formed and called something like “CHIP” – the CHildren’s Innocence Project?

As some of my grandchildren approach what the Church call the age of reason, there is a sadness I feel. I treasure the innocence and purity they possess. Surely this is one of the reasons Jesus spoke so lovingly and strongly about children. They are really the closest we can come to seeing what mankind was meant to be.
I love the fact that they are so accepting of themselves, and comfortable with who they are. I so dread the time when society and life starts to chip away at that feeling of being okay with yourself. I hate that they will lose beautiful parts of themselves to this idolous image of cheap and tacky beauty the world offers.

It is on command from Jesus that we spread His words of love and salvation, and that includes the value and innocence of children.
