Abortion Undermining America

Since the Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade in 1973 over 50 million lives of innocent, helpless children have been taken in the United States. Without question this is the worst holocaust in the history of humankind since it is against the most vulnerable of all...children. Pope John Paul II said "A nation that kills its own children is a nation without a future." His prediction is coming to fruition and the United States is now well on its way to self destruction. The moral fiber of our country has eroded to such an extent that on a daily basis we see and hear things that are beyond shocking. Honesty, integrity, values, and morality are absent. Honorable leadership in government, business, and all walks of life is absent. Corruption is rampant.

It is a wonder that we can sleep at night with the number of lives taken through abortion approaching 4,000 per day. Abortion factories that are supposed to be non profit, return a profit and are taxpayer funded. The U.S. government is now using taxpayer dollars to export abortion. According to the Hippocratic Oath, the doctor's role in society is to save lives and relieve suffering. Abortion is a betrayal of the medical profession, money and profit have replaced the oath. Many of the most influential in political leadership have sold out. They have sold out to such an extent that they act contrary to their religious faith and its teachings.

Yet as a nation, we have accepted something that we should never, ever, accept; the purposeful taking of a child's life. Most heinous of all is the brutal taking of a life through partial birth abortion. This amounts to nothing short of infanticide.

Pope John Paul II placed the issue of abortion that is often clouded with false arguments into a clear perspective ..."a new cultural climate is developing and taking hold, which gives crimes against life a new and ,if possible, even more sinister character, giving rise to further grave concern: broad sectors of public opinion justify certain crimes against life in the name of the rights of individual freedom, and on this basis they claim not only exemption from punishment but even authorization by the State, so that these things can be done with total freedom and indeed with the free assistance of health-care systems." His reference to the assistance of the health-care system is very relevant today.

God or any reference to God is under attack in our country. This was never intended by our founders. Our Constitution is under attack, our freedoms are being continually eroded. Our country is being driven toward bankruptcy, so severely that it may already be irreversible. The "culture of death" thinking that has its roots in abortion has even gone to the extent that some proponents of a new health-care system suggest that it should be aimed only toward those who are "most productive" in society. This would exclude full medical treatment for the elderly and the handicapped, while at the same time supporting abortions. What have we come to as a country?

Abortion is the "Great Sin" of the United States. It undermines everything that is good and sacred about our country. It will lead to the self destruction of the United States. We are now well along on that path.

Time to Take Back Our Schools

There is little doubt that indoctrination of children is now taking place in our public schools. Textbooks are laced with a distortion of our history as a country, discrediting our Founders and past heroes, and full of anti American propaganda. This also includes anti democracy and anti free enterprise capitalism. Political and social agendas are being forced on children and students. It is time to stop, and take back our public schools.

It is recommended for parents who have major issues with the public school system in your city or town to do the following:

1) Form a "Committee of Concerned Parents and Taxpayers".

2) Prepare a "Parents / Taxpayers Bill of Rights With Respect to the Public School System". Get this Bill of Rights on the ballot for the next town election vote. It will then become law.

3) Get good candidates to run for the Board of Education. Support the candidate publicly by saying..."This candidate has been approved by the Committee of Concerned Parents and Taxpayers". This will greatly increase the probability of getting the candidate of choice elected.

4) Once the Board of Education is filled with good people who truly represent the parents and taxpayers of the town, then use the power of democracy to set the agenda back on course. If necessary, replace the Superintendent of Schools or any other administrators in the school system who do not represent the best interests of students, parents, and the people of the town.

It does little to sit back and complain. It is time for the American people to take back the control of our schools. Don't you think?
