Not for political gain. The goal is to advance the culture of life. Every time we think we can swing for the fences and legislate that culture into existence, we strike out. And, the consequence is millions of babies are murdered, because we insist on taking an all or nothing approach.
It is a bitter thing knowing we live in a culture where it is impossible to save every baby. But, it is unconscionable to not save as many as we can today through legislation that the vast majority of both voting blocks will accept. That compromise will represent the largest percentage gain of the entire fight to save unborn babies.
Saving the small percentage that are still victims of abortion will require a grassroots effort to change our culture. And, I believe when the issue is seen as resolved by voters on both sides of the argument, changing the culture will become a much easier thing to do.
Whether it is your position or mine the horrible truth is the position we take will result in unborn babies being the victim of abortion. So your question applies to both of us, under whose sovereignty do we take life away?
I believe in my heart God wants us to save as many babies as possible today, and expects us to keep fighting to eventually save them all. If taking a hardline, all or nothing stance actually saved more babies I would be all for it. But, over 50 years of history shows it doesn’t.
We both want the same things, no unborn babies being the victims of abortion. Let’s keep praying we get there someday soon.
I will keep praying that God's will is done regarding this. His ways are above my understanding, and when I am allowed to see glimpses of his work on this, I am amazed. And I am confident He is mindful of these lives.
