QUESTIONS (on the issue of abortion)?

Question

Where are the children? Where have they gone?
I know it hasn't been so long...
They were all here, with smiling faces.
All of the children in their places.
Where are the mothers? Their children are dying!
Where are the mothers? I can't hear them crying!
Where are the fathers? Where can they be?
Why aren't they listening, why don't they see?
Their babies are murdered before their eyes!
Could they be listening to Satan's lies?
Could they be victims of his deception?
"Not a child, a 'product of conception'.
You have no responsibility.
It is not murder. You'll be free."
Where is God? Where is the Holy One?
Is He watching from His Throne?
Does He hear us when we lift our voice,
In the name of "Personal Choice"?
Will He count us guilty of this sin?
Does the blood of the children cry out to Him?

This is a poem I wrote some time ago.
Can you answer the questions it asks?
Opinions and/or comments welcome...

Answer 1

what a beautiful poem, it speaks to my guilty conscience. abortion is wrong. please people wake up. better not to ever have to face this choice. lust is the mother of all sins.

Answer 2

More than 50% of fertilised ova fail to implant on the wall of the uterus. Many ova that do implant on the wall of the uterus are shed almost immediately. Many foetuses abort naturally before going anywhere near full term. The women involved are usually unaware that they have conceived if the natural abortion takes place within a month of conception. They might experience a heavier than normal period.

There is a huge natural redundancy with fertilised ova and foetuses. The number of medical abortions is a drop in the ocean by comparison. If every one of those fertilised ova is a human being, you should be having funerals and religious services for every tampon and sanitary pad to make sure you don't miss any because that is where most of those fertilised ova end up.

If you are not prepared to do this then you will have to redefine your ideas about when an egg becomes a human. It it is at the moment of fertilisation, it's funerals for the tampons I'm afraid. If it is implantation then the same thing applies because of the number of implanted foetuses that abort naturally.

Either you change your definition of when an egg becomes a human or we start a whole new, very lucrative funeral industry.

Answer 3

Our God is always doing more than watching. You can believe that the shed of innocent blood makes him very angry. There are many versus in the Bible that speaks severely about the shedding of innocent blood. Why it happens I do not know. I trust that all things will work to his glory although abortion is one of the things that require much faith. Women are not made aware of the suffering they will go through for the rest of their lives. Those types of reports are left un - heard because of the political importance of this issue. There are many women who have had abortions, then had families later who say they have nightmares of babies crying years after the abortion. The people who talk them into it and convince them that it is their right will not have to live with or answer for the act. How anyone can say that this is not the taking of an innocent human life. Women who put children up for adoption have less reported stress and regret. God is watching the pro-choice believers. God will forgive all that ask, and this is the only good news on this issue.

To tentofie: Do you know that all abortions do not happen after the first few weeks of conception? I believe the average age of the aborted fetus is around 2 months. How many of those have you heard of on a tampon? Three weeks after conception the baby has a working heart. The intelligent argument can not be whether the baby is alive or not after conception. The argument is to whether it is murder or not.

“To accept the fact that after fertilization has taken place a new human has come into being is no longer a matter of taste or opinion ... it is plain experimental evidence." -Father of Modern Genetics" Dr. Jerome Lejeune

"By all the criteria of modern molecular biology, life is present from the moment of conception." - Dr. Hymie Gordon, Chairman, Department of Genetics at the Mayo Clinic

"To say that the beginning of human life cannot be determined scientifically is utterly ridiculous." - Dr. Richard V. Jaynes

"Conception confers life and makes that life one of a kind." -Dr. Landrum Shettles, the "Father of In Vitro Fertilization"

Answer 4

All of the children are in Heaven Their parents will all go to Hell if they don't repent. Beautiful poem. I never could have children, so abortion just sickens me. I know many people who would do anything legal/decent to have a baby. My best friend is a social worker. She says pro-abortionists claim there aren't people to take the kids. She says that's not true. She has adopted as a single parent. I believe her. I'm not too old to have a baby. Also, due to an unforeseen divorce/bankruptcy w/ my ex. I can't afford a child. I wanted 3 of each. God Bless!

Answer 5

Nice poem.. although it is not a question and does not belong here.
Additionally, I would like to encourage all the anti-abortionists in the world to STOP HAVING CHILDREN and start adopting the unwanted ones we already have. If you illegalize abortion, we will have even more unwanted children in the world, being raised without love and growing up to be either societal leaches, or sociopaths. Abortion is a necessary evil... if you want to get rid of it, stop preaching about what a sin it is, and get to the ROOT of the issue (better sex education at early ages, more education to urban areas, more afterschool programs, etc).

Answer 6

All the children are in the hands of God, He's taken them home as He wept at their death.

Abortion is a horrible, criminal act of intense magnitude but nonetheless it is forgivable!

I drove past a protest in front of a clinic the other day. I had a client with me who was pro-abortion. He asked what was going on. I told him what it was and then said my heart cries out to help those women not beat them up. I remember when I was expecting our first child. We were dirt poor! I couldn't afford maternity clothes, I was rapidly outgrowing all of my clothes. What do I do? What do they do??? How do young girls face the needs of pregnancy? Their option at that point becomes obvious. Now what do we do to help them? Or do we condemn them?
We need to look for ways to help and give them a viable way out!

Answer 7

One of the biggest arguments in the abortion debate is the issue of when does human life begin.

There is not a scientist in the world who would tell you that any living creature in the world can reproduce any offspring of a different species.

DNA is the most basic foundational building block of life in both animal & man. It is the most basic building block that makes every creature ONLY ABLE to reproduce it's own kind! It cannot reproduce any other species except it's own!

Even in the creation af a human baby, both the woman's egg, & the man's sperm, ONLY contain HUMAN DNA!

From the moment that the woman's egg is fertilized, that joined cell contains ONLY HUMAN DNA!

Once the fertilized egg starts to grow, it still contains ONLY HUMAN DNA!

That fertilized egg will ONLY DEVELOP INTO a human baby, because it contains ONLY HUMAN DNA!

Looking at these facts, let us see what Scripture says about reproduction:

Genesis 1:24 (New International Version)

24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so.

Look at what I have underlined-".....each according to it's own kind."

When God created the world, He made it so that each creature, could only reproduce the same species! A cow could not reproduce a horse. A Pig could not reproduce a dog. Each creature that God created, could ONLY REPRODUCE IT'S OWN KIND-NOTHING ELSE!

It's the same way with humans-a human can only reproduce another human.

Regardless of what a baby looks like, when it is forming-it is still a human being!

It cannot be anything else!

When a human kills another human being-it is murder!

When a woman has an abortion-it is killing another human being, regardless of what stage of development the baby might might be in! Why is it murder-because the baby, even if it is unborn, has ONLY HUMAN DNA-NOTHING ELSE! It is STILL a human being!

An unborn baby is still a human being, because it CANNOT BE ANYTHING ELSE!

Abortion kills another human being.

Therefore abortion IS MURDER!

That's my opinion.

Answer 8

I'm a little stunned. I had a higher opinion of you than this.

My standing on the abortion issue is irrelevant. I feel it was inappropriate for you to post this.

As an individual who was abused by a blood relative, at a young but still child bearing age, I find this offensive.

Answer 9

Innocent blood cries loud and clear.
Much Like Cain and Abel, my dear.

In the name of freedom and in the name of choice.
We have paraded our selfishness and that without remorse.

Greed and lust called :"doing my on thing."
Should not this have a familiar ring.

He sees it all and stores up the wrath.
Clear cut boundaries and in comes the sword.
Separating the wheat from the chaff.

Answer 10

1. The children are in heaven.
2/3. Killing their children
4/5. Sleeping with someone else
6. Because they don't care
7. They don't choose to listen
8. Yes
9. Yeah.
10/11. With the deceased babies
12. Yes
13. No, he's too angry at those who kill their babies
14. Yes, he will. YOu'll rot in hell
15. Yes, especially since they're right next to him.

That is a deep, emotional poem. Like Edgar Allen Poe.
YOu shouled become a poet.

Answer 11

Incredible poem..poignant, but incredible.

Here's another question for all the pro-choicers: How would you like to be shredded to pieces and thrown in a trash can?

Funny how people say "It's not a child..it's just cells." Hmm..if it's just cells then why does it need to be aborted?

Make that the last thing you think about before you go to bed tonight.
