Since 1776, approximately 1.3 million of our American military have lost their lives defending human rights and freedoms in wars and conflicts including the Civil War, the world wars, Vietnam, Iraq and the war on terror. We’ve made serious mistakes–slavery, civil discrimination and more–which we’ve corrected. However, on our way “to form a more perfect union” as stated in the preamble to the Constitution, we’ve thrown away the right to life through the legalization of abortion. The tragic loss of 1.3 million military lives over 237 years pales in comparison to the almost 56 million innocent human lives killed in only 40 years through abortion.
What’s even worse is that those who support abortion say that they are defending women’s health! Pregnancy is not a disease, and very few abortions are done to save a women’s life. Abortion is NOT health care no matter how much you try to rationalize it. It is a tragic loss of an innocent life for the “convenience” of the mother which no reason can justify.
On this 4th of July, we pray that our country’s history will be remembered by those who rationalize the destruction of innocent human lives, and that our courts and our legislators will recognize that our founding documents guarantee the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness not just for some, but for all.
For Life,
Denise Leipold, Executive Director, Right to Life of Northeast Ohio dleipold@rtlofneo.com
