Youth Defence is wicked



Dreadful. Awful people. Controversial. Divisive.

The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death. 22 And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved.

23 And when they shall persecute you in this city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come.

...

26 Therefore fear them not. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed: nor hid, that shall not be known. 27 That which I tell you in the dark, speak ye in the light: and that which you hear in the ear, preach ye upon the housetops. 28 And fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Perhaps, but the truth is often very uncomfortable for those who may not wish to hear it. I have long understood that the use of a euphemism (i.e., "pro-choice) to describe one's position, is as much an evasion to salve the consciences of those arguing the case for a license, limited or unlimited, to abortion as it was an attempt to disguise to the listener, the actual issues at stake, thereby conveniently distorting the truth with the aim of gaining the acquiescence of the general public.

Nevertheless, it is about time that those of us opposed to abortion spoke the simple truth, irrespective of whether or not it also has emotional content.
