Abortion is Murder!

It is estimated that nearly 1.3 million abortions are performed annually in the United States alone[1]! *That means almost 50 million legal abortions have occurred in the US since Roe vs. Wade in 1973[2]! Think about that, 50 million babies! 50 million lives terminated before they were even given a chance. 50 million helpless, innocent lives. (*Note that this number references just the United States alone. There have been an estimated 1,656 million abortions worldwide since 1973!).

There are many who have compared the work of the abortionist with that of Hitler and I tend to agree. So, one may ask the question, "Does this mean that it is good or right to take the life of an abortionist?" In a word, NO! Taking a life is wrong whether he or she is a newly conceived zygote or a 30 year old professional. If I answered “yes,” I would be no better than the abortionist myself. God is the author of life and even though we may have grievous differences with our fellow man, it is not our place or our right to take what is not ours. God is their judge (Ecclesiastes 12:14; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Romans 14:12; Hebrews 4:13)!
