Killing a Baby Isn't Health Care, It's a Slap in the Face of God
On Friday, Donald John Trump became the only sitting president to personally address the 47-year old March for Life in Washington, D.C.
Not George W. Bush, nor Ronald Reagan.
Donald John Trump!
On the day of the march, Bernie Sanders tweeted, “abortion is health care.”
Abortion is health care.

No, Bernie, it’s not. It is killing babies — the exact opposite of healthcare.
Getting pregnant takes an overt act. It’s not accidental. Babies are a gift from God. Killing a baby — especially for your convenience — is slapping God in the face.
Now I don’t know about you, but whatever my flaws, I can read odds and count. French mathematician Blaise Pascal posited from a philosophical point of view that humans bet with their lives that God either exists or does not.
Or, put into the terms of a Vegas sportsbook, if you believe in God in this life, and find in the next that there is no God, no harm no foul. But if you don’t believe in God and find out there is a God, you’re screwed. And, by the way, Pascal thought of this in the 17th century, well before the Westgate Superbook was built — and well before Elvis played the theater there.
Now, I live in the front range of the Sierra Nevada mountains. I can see them out my back door.
I used to live on Mount Charleston over Las Vegas.
Even if you can convince me that these works of natural art were indeed caused by a “big bang” which had no actual cause, I’d still make even money bets on God. So would most people.
So, Bernie: Do you really think that God would want you to destroy one of his creations? If you do, you are even more warped than I originally thought.
Doctors take an oath to “first, do no harm.”
How can killing a baby in (or out) of the womb possibly be “no harm”?
When I hear someone from NARAL bleating about choices, what I’m hearing is pure selfishness. OK, I’d be willing to listen to those who bring up rape, incest or — if it were not a fig leaf — the health of the mother. Perhaps an ethics committee of real doctors.
But destroying one of God’s gifts for the mere convenience of a woman who just doesn’t want a baby? Nonstarter. They call it pro-choice. Right. The choice between murder and not killing a baby.
You don’t like it?
Then get sterilized or be careful.
As far as the murdering Democrats go, remember Pascal’s wager.
What position would you like to be in when you meet God? Would you like to be in the position to say you have never been a party to a murder?
