What is wrong with us?

What is wrong with us that can even find it possible to debate about life? My friend posted this story on her blog. I couldn't help but link to it. How can the journalists and others who are attacking this woman sleep at night?? Have we allowed media to have so much say that we take their word for truth? For me, I tend to believe the opposite of what the media tells. At the very least, it gets me looking for the other side of the story. Have morals fallen so far away from Americans that we truly don't care about the sanctity of life. Have we reduced the value of an unborn baby so much so that we don't even think they are worth saving once they are born? What I cannot comprehend is how anyone, a believer or not, can pass laws supporting abortion and refusing life saving measures for babies who actually survive the deplorable act! Does anyone else understand this? A woman has many choices! She can choose to not have sex, she can choose from a plethora of birth control options, if she does get pregnant (another choice - by not choosing the former you choose this one) she can choose to give that baby up for adoption...why is it that it seems the only choice she has is to have an abortion?? Choices...a woman has many she can make before choosing to kill a baby. You can't legally help someone who is terminally ill to end their life but, you can legally end the life of a new baby. Things that make you go hmmmm. When will we see these precious babies for who they are? Babies, totally dependent on us for their survival. Tiny miracles, amazing little human beings who don't have a choice. They don't have a choice as to whether or not they want to be created. They don't have a choice in whether or not they want to live the life they had been given or have it HORRIBLY taken away. I'll close like my friend started...Think about it!
