Reflection

PRO-LIFE

You're pro-life if you pinch yourself for being here - grateful to be alive - and you're having the time of your life - and you hope it's for everyone.

You're pro-life if you're amazed at a tiny, tiny page bug - one you see in an old book - as you watch this tiny, tiny dot, this moving period, move quickly on a page - and you hope nobody will destroy it.  

You're pro-life if  you take time to visit folks in a nursing  home.

You're pro-life if you see through political manipulation to get votes using the abortion issue in these glossy flyers and TV ads and you sense that the creators of these ads really don't do anything about the murder of children in the womb.

You're pro-life if you are concerned about the children of the world - here there, and everywhere - those abused, those getting inferior education, those being sheltered from other kids, illegal kids, etc.

You're pro-life if you delight in people able to migrate to new places in order to make a living -  to survive and to thrive.

You're pro-life if you go crazy with people who are for abortion - but scream about clubbing baby seals to death for their skins, or other other animals for their fur.

You're pro-life if you go crazy at what seems a contradiction:  people screaming for a healthier environment for all of us - but they are for killing babies in the inner environment of a mom's womb.

You're pro-life if you're for the safety of people - trying to do one's part to remove the causes of war and robbery and rape.

You're pro-life if you are against capital punishment - while knowing it's being done unfairly.

You're pro-life if you realize - and this I believe is the  most controversial plank in my platform - you're against war - unless its the only way to stop people from killing innocent life.
