Thank you, that was poignant, what a difficult thing to go through, and my heart goes out to you and your family. Not sure how I would have met that test. My wife’s birthing was relatively easy for our three. What you talk about there near the end is one, if not the biggest thing, about those who wish to make no exceptions that infuriates me. How dare they? It makes me conclude that they really don’t care about human life, they are just checking a box. Harsh perhaps, but I don’t know else how to comprehend it. Bottom line to me: it is a fundamental breakdown in human compassion. That is distinctly unlike the teachings of Christ. And he is the one we should be trying to follow.
If we, too, had stopped at three, we would still have supported any woman’s right to make her own medical decisions. But our daughter desperately wanted a younger brother, and we did our best so provide. Was it God who temporarily got in the way?
Regardless, we learned first-hand, not only that indiscriminate obstruction to terminate the death-sentence pregnancy would have been horrific, torture, but also that tens of thousands of families go through the same thing—and right now, here in Texas, God spare them!
You and I surely share a prayer, that not one single woman more must go through the Hell of a defective pregnancy or miscarriage.
I’m not one to intercede between any person and God. To do this is so clearly a sin, I can’t help but question the true motivations of all who so-dispassionately stand in the way. And as I say elsewhere in this whole set of comments, my ability to remain calmly courteous is now frayed.
It’s my wife, and could have been your wife, these people are talking about. I apologize again—to you and anyone else my expressions impose on:
To unequivocally oppose abortion for others, unless you practice Christian Science yourself, and abjure all medical science, is Wrong.
And, I should add, I’m not hard over that Christianity is the only way, it’s just that Jesus is the teacher that I have identified with the most in my life…
