Abortion: What Would Jesus Do?

We ran across this 2008 blog posting while looking for more information on the Houston abortion protest. You may find it intriguing!

Abortion: What WOULD Jesus Do?

A taste:

There’s a little song we all know. It goes, “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world.”

If Jesus, as this Feelgooder tune claims, truly loves all the children of the world, why does He allow billions of them to be born with no chance of Salvation?

“What’s that?” you ask. “No, no, everyone has an equal chance at Salvation. The vast majority of people just choose Hell instead of Jesus.”

Let’s investigate that, shall we?

Two classes of little children are, according to the Bible, condemned to eternal torture in the Pit of Hell by virtue of being born: Those who do not choose Jesus, and those who are illegitimate. Loopholes exist for some who fail to choose Jesus, but never for a bastard.

I would say no one can really say with any authority what someone who may or may not of existed would say about abortion. Each side of the issue will have grounds for saying he will take our side. The bible can be used to defend conflicting views with equal validity. The best thing people could do would be to put the bibles down and look at life as it effects people.

I feel sooo sorry for the people, who don't beleive in Jesus, and no we can't put the bible down. Even if we did, who has the right to teminated a babies life. Life is life and having an abortion is destroying a life and babies life for crying sake. If the parent was so foolish and unresponsible to conceive when they didn't want to, then is their problem, live with it, don't just go killing the baby.

  Linda you say how can anyone believe they have the right to kill babies but you seem to forget all the smashed babies in your bible. You also seem to forget that your belief says everything happens according to gods plan. That means all abortions are a part of his plan, therefore they must be good.

    Baconsbud, you make an excellent point. A commenter about Haiti insists that since God allowed the earthquake to happen, it was His Will that tens of thousands perish and more become homeless.
    
    Since God allows abortions to occur, doesn’t that also mean that they are His Will?

      This is how I see christians being under thinkers. They never fully look at their claims. They avoid looking into them fully and I believe they fear looking to closely at them. To look closely at what they are told to believe will cause them to see that someone is lying to them. When they come back and say that the actions was because of the devil I will ask, does the devil only do what god wants or can he change the plans that their god has?

      Abortion is a free will choice. God will not hinder a choice made by free willed adults. An earthqauke is not a free willed choice.
      
      BTW, your comment about smashed babies is bull. Just because someone decides to do something in the name of God does not bmean He condones it.

        I guess we're reading different Bibles. Mine indicates that God often interferes with human decision-making. For example:
        
        Exodus 4:21
        And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart, that he shall not let the people go.

        @Anon they wrote the Bible in the name of God. How much if any of that is real? Just because the book was written does not make any of it fact and I would think that if God was real we would have heard something from him personally within the last couple of thousand years. Since we have not I conclude that he does not exist but in the pages of a book and in the teachings of the faithful who lead through their human fears and their own biases and the indoctrination of their young.

  I don't see you protesting in front of the pentagon against all the children who the Christian USA have killed in various countries. This makes you a hypocrite because you are not pro life but only pro fetus.
