It’s such an interesting yet not surprising observation. I know there is always a percentage of pro-life protestors who are “exuberant” or even angry. Yet their behaviour doesn’t come close to the pure rage in these people.

It’s almost as if you’re watching wild animals just barely restrain themselves. I haven’t seen anger like this in any other issue in life. Something is definitely touched upon in this arena.

:mad:

I wish someone could do a side by side of the differences between the march for life and the march for womens lives as well. lol!
 
I don’t think the main stream media will even touch this subject with a ten foot pole…and forget our politicians.

Maybe someone could send our socalled prochoice politicians, particularly the ones running for president a video of this atrocity.
Except they are protected by their inner circles.

More reasons to pray.

It is very disturbing to read this commentary and find out how much our society has been duped by the devil. We must pray harder and support the March for Life on this very day of the Roe vs.Wade decision, which changed the US for the worse.

Disturbing and sad, indeed. One of the many things that stood out in this article was:
Observation one: Their actions nullify their affirmations. They talk about choice, but angrily condemn those of us who have chosen a route other than abortion.

In this PC-filled world we live in, society talks about how we have to respect everyone’s rights - but if our rights differ from theirs, they are the first to condemn. 🤷 God Bless the Pro-Life supporters who stand their ground everyday - and God bless the “choosers” so that they may have a change of heart.

I think it is fairly predictable, though. The people who take the time and devote the resources to participate in a march are going to be persons who are most passionate about a topic. During the march, they are “on-stage” as marchers - their personal lives have been set aside. They temporarily become united in a cause, and that unity defines their identity for the duration of the event.

Counter-demonstrators, such as Mr. Sly, are going to become a lightning rod for their emotion. Counter-demonstrators are the antithesis of the marchers, and from the point of view of the marchers, are stealing their limelight. Or even worse, are attempting to provoke the marchers.

I don’t understand the point of counter-demonstrating. A march isn’t the time to get calm reasoned discussion. I think a counter-demonstrator can pretty much expect to get ill-treated, no matter what cause is being promoted.
 
When you read this article, it helps you understand why the Cathari had to be put down in the way that they were at the Battle of Beziers.
 
The term “political correctness” is false. Who enforces this? No one. Be obedient to God. The anarchists are fools and they behave according to their beliefs. The Bible tells us the road to destruction is wide. The road to God is narrow and few are they who find it.

As Pope Benedict stated at Christmas: “The message of hope is sorely needed.” Stand with God.

God bless,
Ed
