Quote of the Day 7-1-10
If opinion research reveals anything about Americans’ attitudes toward abortion, it’s that they don’t like to think about it – period….
Whatever the reasons for it, New York’s abortion taboo plainly cripples the city’s ability to deal maturely with some of its most pressing social problems.
Take absentee fathers – one of the strongest predictors of poverty and the plight of some one-third of city children.
It’s hard to deny that the act of abortion – essentially, the violent destruction of a developing member of the next generation – makes a cultural mark, especially when practiced to the extent it is in NY….
Thus, an honest discussion would at least entertain the possibility that the easy availability of subsidized abortion weakens the cultural expectation that young men must take responsibility for their offspring.
~John Wilson, NY Post, July 1

Amen, John Wilson!
Seventy percent of pregnancies in NYC are terminated according to John Wilson, yet New Yorkers have better things to worry about because they assume that abortion eliminates the drain on society that these children represent. Abortion frees upper class men and women to advance their Wall Street careers and enjoy their weekend vacation homes without taking responsibility for raising children. Margaret Sanger, the Planned Parenthood elite and the rest of the medical establishment must be so proud.
Lord have mercy on the city of New York and may God bless those who stand up for LIFE in spite of the culture of death.
New York churches should be leading this fight. Are they?
