Let's Go Back to the Bible

I’m confused! A mom can kill a baby but a dad cannot?

There is a man in Tampa who has been charged with first-degree murder of his unborn child. This man “tricked” the mother of his unborn baby into taking an abortion pill. She wanted the baby but he didn’t.

The sickening irony of this story is…well…sickening. If the mother of the baby didn’t want the baby, she could have taken an abortion pill and the world would have applauded her for exercising her rights (and it wouldn’t matter what the father of the baby thought or wanted). But, when the father of the baby didn’t want the baby, the world rises in disgust and condemnation of his actions to “get rid of it.”

You know that I’m not trying to justify this man’s actions or the use of an abortion pill any time, and I’m not suggesting that he should not be charged (and even convicted) of his despicable crime. However, where is the outrage when a mother takes the pill on her own volition to kill the baby? Where is the outrage when a “doctor” rips a living baby from a mother’s womb? Where is the outrage that babies are being mutilated every day against their own will?
