This is so true… the destruction of people, families, and society as a whole is huge, but God heals and it can change if we, one heart at a time, heal.
Rush Limbaugh: Abortion is at the Heart of Society’s Ills
by Calvin Freiburger | LifeNews.com | 6/18/13 1:54 PM
asserting that in addition to its innate monstrousness, abortion is “at
the root of our cultural decay” as a nation, its impact stretching from
respect for life and personal responsibility to crime, immigration, and
the economy:
If you use the popularly accepted figure of 1.3 million
abortions a year, go back to Roe vs. Wade 1973, 52 million taxpayers
haven’t been born, is the way Washington looks at it. They don’t look at
it morally. They don’t look at it in any kind of cultural way or any
kind of cultural impact. They just say we’re 52 million people short. We
have 52 million fewer people paying taxes. We gotta replace ‘em. Hello
amnesty. The Democrat Party needs a permanent underclass in order to
keep themselves alive as Santa Claus, to keep winning elections and stay
in power […]I
just want to tell you something. I really think that abortion is at the
root — you could do a flowchart — I think abortion is at the root of so
much that has and is going wrong in this country. I think that the
number of abortions themselves, but what in toto it all means,
culturally, in terms of the sanctity of life, how that’s crumbled, I
think it’s almost at the root of everything. And if it’s not at the root
of everything, it’s clearly had a profound impact on our culture, our
society, and our politics, I think in ways that people don’t even stop
to consider.None of it good and it’s caused all kinds of horrible problems that
nobody knows how to fix. Because they refuse to even accept that
abortion is more than what it is. To most people, it’s just a woman’s
right to choose, and it’s nobody’s business,
and leave it alone and I don’t want to talk about it. But it’s really
had much more impact on this country than just that. It’s had impact on
crime. It’s had a profound impact on our politics. It is at the root of
our cultural rot and decay.You can trace the problems with accepting personal responsibility, no
consequences for your actions, you can trace so much right back to it.
And I’m not talking about the women. I’m talking the overall effect of a
society having literally no problem with eliminating 52 million of its
citizens. That can’t be good […]I don’t know how you can have so much white guilt over slavery 150
years ago and have no guilt over what’s happening with abortion. I
really don’t. I think it is the cause of so much that seems to be
inexplicable to people. Why are 10-year-olds shooting each other to
death in Chicago? Why is our society so permissive, anything goes, the
more ribald, the better?
As an example of just how far we’ve fallen, Rush pointed to the utter unwillingness
of Nancy Pelosi, leader of House Democrats, to explain the moral
difference between Kermit Gosnell killing a newborn and aborting a baby
of the same age before birth. When a former Speaker of The House of
Representatives, one of the highest offices in the land, calls ending
infanticide “reprehensible” and feels no obligation to even pretend she cares about the answer, it’s hard to deny how much our national conscience has dulled.
