A Response to Culture and Christians on Abortion - a podcast by Jonathan Michael Jones

            The
recent legislative actions in the state of New York recently have caused me to reflect
quite a bit. I have always been a staunch opponent of abortion; the recent,
legislation in New York, however, has provided a time and place for me to speak
about the topic even more. We, as a society, have already committed the largest
mass murder in history. Since Rove vs. Wade (1973), there have been over 61
million abortions.

Additionally, since 1980, there have been over 1.5 billion abortions worldwide.
[2] History would suggest that
the world followed suit to the United States after Roe vs. Wade. We then are
the most murderous people who have ever walked this planet. I say “we” because
it has been allowed as a society. Even for those of us who hate the murder of
babies, we are a part of the people who have allowed it to happen. In
Scripture, God condemns those who sacrifice children to Molech (Lev 20:2). In
the same way, a day of reckoning is coming for all of us regarding abortion.
The question will be asked of what we did about it. I, for one, do not want to
be someone who did nothing. Thus, considering the recent New York legislation,
I will respond to two groups: 1) advocates of abortion and 2) Christians.
