The events of this past week (April 15-20, 2013) have been
exhausting and very frustrating. I
feel horrible for the people whose lives were lost in this senseless
tragedy. And I, like most, waited
with baited breath to see these two men apprehended. But watching the news coverage of these types of events is
exhausting. I don’t mean to be
shallow, but I lament these events not only for the loss of life, but the also
for the incessant news coverage and the tireless speculation.
The events of this week bring into question the necessity
for the 24-hour news. Just because
we have the technology to bring live coverage of a helicopter hovering over a
Best Buy doesn’t really mean that we need to show a helicopter hovering over a
Best Buy. Although this was
certainly the most visible news story of the week, what else did we miss this
past week?
There are two stories that failed to break into American
homes amid the constant news about the Boston Bombings and the trip to Cuba by
Jay-Z and Beyonce.
Story 1: Scientists found life on Mars. According to the report the Mars Rover
identified a cluster of living cells multiplying rapidly. It is unknown at this point if the
living cells are human, animal or plant life. Needless to say NASA and other agencies are scrambling a
team of people who can make the journey to Mars to protect this life and study
it.
Story 2: Police found the remains of what appeared to be
thousands of human babies at a farm in rural Pennsylvania. The suspects are still at large, but
Federal Investigators are calling this a place where religious group sacrificed
children to an unknown god. The
group and its leader have not been identified, but investigators have a few
leads.
Wow! Those
stories didn’t make the cut, presumably because of the Boston Bombings and the
whereabouts of Jay-Z. Incredible
really, life on Mars and some wackos sacrificing live babies! How can this be? Well I will tell you how it can be. It didn’t get reported because I made up
those stories; those stories are not real. But do you know what story is real which has not yet made
national headlines? The story of Kermit
Gosnell, a Philadelphia abortionist and what is being deemed by the few
media outlets that did pick up the story, as a “house of horrors.”

| Face of Evil - Kermit Gosnell |
The testimony, which is coming out in the trial, is that Mr.
Gonsnel (I refuse to call him a doctor) performed late term abortions, nay,
murder, by snipping the spinal cord of babies born, not “fetuses” in utero, but
babies alive an on the table. He
is charged with 7 counts of first-degree murder and one count of third-degree
murder of an adult patient.
One of the clinic staff testified that a baby was still
alive after a botched abortion and put into a toilet where she said it was
swimming in the toilet trying to get out. Another clinic staff member grabbed
the baby and snipped its spinal cord to kill it. The
prosecution also showed that the drain pipes were so clogged with discarded
babies that the clinic had to remove the toilet to unclog the drain!
So why haven’t news agencies covered this trial in more
detail? I’m mean, remember how
much attention the chick from Florida received after being accused of murdering
her daughter and burying her not far from her house? This man is accused of murdering seven babies, one adult and
the only thing we get are one and two minute segments from the big news
networks. The Boston Bombings
killed 2 adults and one child and wounded more than 180 people. Sad. Tragic. But this jack wagon
murders hundreds of children and nothing?!
Some news agencies claim that the details are far too
horrific to cover. Hogwash! The news media showed hours of bombing
footage and bloody people being treated by emergency workers. They refuse to cover this trial because
it’s about abortion, plain and simple.
It makes a woman’s right to choose convenience look like what it really
is…murder.
The frustrating part is that if scientists did find a
cluster of cells on Mars they would move heaven and hell to get there to save
it, to study it, to protect it. We
would have CNN covering it painstaking detail. Wolf Blizer would probably be flown to Mars himself to give
us the play by play.
Could you imagine if there was a religious cult out there
sacrificing children? Wall-to-wall
news coverage. Wes Craven would
turn it a feature film and Lifetime would turn it into a made-for-TV movie or
even a mini series. There would be
public outcry and the Department of Justice would not rest until the cult was
taken out and the leaders prosecuted to the fullest extent.
But you see, this is happening. Science has found a cluster of cells that are alive and go
from a mass of living cells to become a full-grown human. Only the cells are not on Mars, but in
a woman’s womb. And there is
religious cult out there sacrificing babies by the millions all in the name of
their god…themselves.
Those people who choose not to follow an established
religion can be categorized as Humanists.
Humanism is just a fancy term for saying “if it feels good, do it.” And for some, abortion feels good. Well, maybe not the procedure, but the
sex that led to it, or the drug use, which led to the sex feels good. Imagine a world where you can have as
much sex as you want, with whomever you want without the pesky consequences of
having a child. Welcome to world
brought to you by Planned Parenthood.
It is unfortunate that many of us have grown up hearing only about the risks and dangers of expressing ourselves sexually. While those risks are real, it is also true that having sex play — with or without a partner — can be a positive and powerful force in our lives. It helps us create connections to other people and it helps us enjoy our world.
