It reminded me of the Democrat\u2019s current fight to protect abortion. First they said it was necessary, like they did slavery. Then they tried to justify it according to Scripture, like they did slavery. It took a little twisting of Scripture because the Bible banned slavery, but allowed servitude for debts, which they used to justify it, even though their slavery wasn\u2019t for debts and wasn\u2019t limited in time like it was in Isreal. Abortion was more difficult because it wasn\u2019t practiced in Bible times, so they couldn\u2019t justify it on that basis. Finally they justified slavery on the basis that it was the compassionate thing to do. The Negro wasn\u2019t able to take care of himself and so the benevolent plantation owner needed to take care of him in return for his service. Today they claim they have to save the baby from a miserable life and help the poor helpless women and girls who find themselves pregnant with a baby they can\u2019t take care of, or just don\u2019t want. It is their whole approach to life. They feel that the average person doesn\u2019t know what is best for them so they have to step in and help them out. When laws and the will of the people go against what they feel is best, they ignore them, because they feel that they know what is best for everyone. Of course, it helps that they get paid well for their compassion. When the Supreme Court opened the door to abortion, they proclaimed that the States didn\u2019t have any right to restrict it but as soon as the Supreme Court declared that the baby was a person protected by the Constitution, they proclaimed that the States had the right to allow it and moved to change the State laws to allow abortion. When some States decided they didn\u2019t want abortion, they used their power in the federal government to bypass the State laws and make abortion available in spite of the wishes of the people of those States. They don\u2019t really care about the rights of the\u00a0 State, or of the people, all they care about is protecting abortion. In fact, they don\u2019t seem to care about the women and girls either because they fight any attempt to enforce basic protections for women like licensing of those performing abortions and inspections of the facilities, informed consent for clients and parental consent for minors. Their whole efforts stem from their belief that the average person doesn\u2019t know what is best for them and they, the liberal politicians, are superior to the average person and have to make people do what they feel is best for them.<\/p>\n
