NEVER GIVE UP ON LIFE

reductio ad absurdum n. proof of falsity by showing absurd logical consequence

Our culture is a death culture. We uphold the perverse right to kill our wanted preborn children, or the old, sick and disabled should they give up on life and become suicidal. 
Cicero
(106 BC-46 BC)

Our culture is a throw away culture. We throw away everything including unwanted children. But we must ask, Unwanted by whom? No child deserves to be abandoned to an abortionist or a garbage heap. Cicero's words are as applicable today as the day they were uttered thousands of years ago: "While there's life, there's hope." Our culture would do well to heed his wisdom, whether life is at its beginning or drawing to a close. Never give up of life -- whether your own or another. 

I remember seeing a shocking and sad photograph of a baby thrown out with the refuse: The reductio ad absurdum of  "pro-choice". Someone picked the baby up with arms of love and gave him hope and a future.



"Choose life that you and your descendants may live."
