"Right to Life" doesn't just pertain to stem cells and embrios. It also pertains to those embrios which have been born, including those children of lower and middle class families that can't afford health insurance for them, to preserve their lives and the quality of their lives, and can't afford to
America has just been challenged to support their Right to Life of these unfortunate children, and come up wanting. This is a failure of all Americans:
A failure of Democratic politicians to get the SChip bill passed
A failure of George Bush and Republican politicians to have the same compassion and generosity for needy children that they have shown for the wealthiest among us.
And a failure of all Americans to demand better of their government.
Why do some of us limit our respect for human life to that human life which has not yet left the womb?
This is a sad comment on American compassion, and on Christianity, We should all be ashamed that we've let this happen.
