I see this stressed so often, that being “pro-life” means for all of life, but the meaning of that is so vague to me. To me, sometimes, it seems as though it’s nothing more than a distraction from the cruel reality that a tiny being growing inside of her own mother’s womb is being attacked. What does it mean, exactly? How can anyone follow a child throughout its life until it is eighteen, making certain they have nothing less than an ideal life? I do get sick of it, simply because I feel it is nothing more than trying to dismiss the atrocities inflicted upon these innocent, helpless beings. To most, it seems just a “fetus,” but the reality is that God sees all life the same. Is a five year old child loved less than a ten year old? To me, this is the logic. It’s all right to just snuff her out while she’s still inside the womb, where no one can see her and everyone can just callously “pretend” she’s a nothing, a throwaway piece of garbage that was an inconvenience someone could have done better without. Mother Teresa was a woman who really did care about life at all stages, including inside the womb. Mother Teresa was actually helping children and families, and she cared about both mother and child, yet she also didn’t condone snuffing out a child just because she wouldn’t have an ideal life. Talk about ideal. What kind of a society are we creating for these children? Not much of one, in my honest opinion. Who is really to blame? Blame those who abuse children, blame those who actually dumb down and desensitize, thinking they are educating them well when really they aren’t. We have turned into a society that embraces and obsesses over anything to do with blood, death, gore, and all things satanic. The world we now offer our children allows the most bizarre fantasies to be lived out as a reality, wrong things are demanded as a “right,” and those who try and speak out in the name of morally right are condemned. All of the signs of Jesus’s return are here. It will be any day now, if my prayers are answered. Get me out of this place! I don’t want to be here! I hate it! Mother Teresa actually did care about both mothers and their children, and she didn’t regard a child growing in the womb as a piece of garbage to be thrown out. THAT is what is wrong with this rotten place. We talk about “human rights,” and yet…really? Really? They’re the ones who are incomplete, shallow, and hypocritical. Not those, I believe, who feel every child deserves better than the dumpy, slovenly belief that abortion is a sacrament.
