Stern words, but appropriate given the gravity of the subject-matter: abortion; abuse of process; separation of powers; rule of law; and civil strife. As Chalcedon used to remark so often, where are the feminists speaking up for aborted girls? Enough is enough. I pray that both the UK and the USA receive laws ending abortion.

It has almost become a sacrament for the left and the feminists. The abortion clock is still clicking and it makes any wars or rumors of wars pale in comparison to the loss of life that abortion has taken.

Tophet indeed. Why, we even use incinerators. This is a great form of tyranny. It should be a matter of simple constitutional and criminal law, and yet basic principles have been twisted and subverted by the left. We should call it what it is – insanity. No one can stand up and defy logic like they do and legitimately claim to belong to the best philosophical tradition. Descartes, Leibniz, Berkeley, and Kant would be ashamed of intellectuals today, as would old John Locke. No wonder the prophets today refer to Babylon when they speak of the anti-God legal and political order in Europe and the Democratic Party.

Sacrificial offerings on the altar of sex without consequence. An altar of self-indulgence without guilt or social pressure for exercising individual responsibility.

We would not have laws like this if our legislatures were filled with men like William Gladstone or Oliver Cromwell. One cannot escape the conclusion that our representatives, insofar as they permit these laws to exist, are not of the same values -by and large – as those men were.

It really is a pivotal point in modern history that we have rolled back the clock to pagan sacrifices of children and not even for a stone idol but for a more gratifying and uncomplicated life for our wonderful selves.

I blame materialism. People have forgotten the old gods, but in so doing have become ensnared by them. They confuse Christian awareness of the gods with superstition, when superstition exists only among fringe elements and may be found among secularists, just as a different species.

Materialism has a lot to do with it as well. Where we are supposed to lead lives that are Christo-centric we have become a society that is Self-centric whilst we claim a false love of neighbor; not caring about their true welfare but tolerant of different truths and different moralities. I’m OK, you’re OK is actually a form of indifference for another just as their idea that truth is in the eye of the beholder.

True – and that is why I am a lower-case evangelical. If we hold the truth, and they will die without it, then we are under a moral obligation to share it. It is a simple argument.

I fully agree, Nicholas. Responsibilities follow objective truths and morality.

Alas, the liberals deny both the soundness of our premises and the validity of our reasoning. The fact is, you can actually build an anti-abortion argument without directly appealing to God just using basic principles the average secular person on the street would accept. They are without excuse on this point.

That’s very true. Simple survival and self-preservation ought to do the trick . . . but it doesn’t.

There is a great irony in college campuses when they attempt to illustrate all the horrors of colonialism of Western Civilization, and yet, fail to realize that not only are some ideas better than others, but that they are vilifying a certain viewpoint so they can more easily articulate their own form of colonialism on the world. It’s a sad fact, which doesn’t surprise, that the attempts on “progressive” colonialism by the United States and the European Union are never mentioned in a history class but go read about the Cairo Conference or the Beijing Women’s conference and it’s a prime example of Colonialism in the name of the culture of death. The only difference is that’s the prevailing idea at the moment in academic and media circles.

Indeed so. And the progressives push the myth of their being the party that protects the rights of blacks while almost 1/3 of the abortions are performed on black women. Margaret Sanger (the racist, communist) would love to see that we are now performing the genocide on blacks that she always dreamt for.

America is its own worst enemy when it comes to that argument, however, and often hypocritical on that point. Americans who complain about colonialism are hypocrites because they are the descendants of colonists and enjoy the benefits of a civil society created by colonists.
