With political upheaval all around the middle east, wars being fought on multiple fronts, and nations under the thumb of cruel dictators, you might guess one of those crises. Yet, these words are coming from some on Capitol Hill regarding “three different pro-life” measures currently making their way through the House of Representatives. What are these purportedly heinous acts? One would take away tax benefits for “employers who provide health care if the plans offer abortion coverage.” A second “would block…consumers from purchasing abortion coverage.” Another measure “aims to block health clinics, specifically Planned Parenthood, from receiving federal funding if they perform abortions” (Bream, Shannon; politics.blogs.foxnews.com).
That’s it. That is what some legislators are calling “excessively harsh and severe” (draconian), “deserving hatred and contempt” (despicable), and “able and likely to cause harm or injury” (dangerous). Those supporting the bill say “their intention is not to block access to abortions, but to make sure that taxpayers aren’t forced to fund them” (ibid.). While Christians with a moral ethic shaped by Scripture would argue that nothing is being done in government that goes far enough to protect the lives of innocent, unborn children being slaughtered in large numbers every day, any rational observer should be able to step back from this rhetoric and see how extreme the reaction of opponents is.
More than that, one should pause and wonder how God views the cavalier attitude of so many toward the treatment of humanity’s most helpless and innocent ones. God long ago pronounced as an abomination, as a thing He hates, “hands that shed innocent blood” (Prov. 6:16-17). In the time of Isaiah, He also warned, “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil…” (Isa. 5:20). When those taking even baby steps to protect the unborn are vilified and the right to murder is vaunted, one has to wonder who truly is draconian, despicable, and extremely dangerous!
