Questions for Us

The Illegal Chinese Abortion has caused an outrage – and with complete and absolute reason. A seven-month foetus, illegally aborted, whilst restraining the hysterical mother and putting a pillow slip over her face. Even through the pixellated image – you can see it was the same size as many babies we’ve seen born a little early, but easily survive. It was a baby.

Now I’m sure we’re all on the same page. This was so very, very wrong. I found myself quietly crying, imagining such a horrific experience and feeling my whole heart ache for this woman.

I don’t know about you, but this sort of story just fills me with a deep despair. A despair that opens the flood gates of the countless, actual countless, and endless atrocities that are happening at this very moment ALL around the world.

So I have to ask:

Question #58: Why doesn’t the human race appear to improve and evolve as time goes by?

So much misery in the world – with a select few making ‘power’ decisions that menace and devastate.

How is it that there was noone – not one person – who stopped this woman’s baby from being executed?

The worst part of it is – that there are always so many who are ready to do the unthinkable. Twenty staff from the family planning department went to arrest the seven-month pregnant woman. Twenty.

So sad.

*Shaking my head in disillusioned dismay*

Deep, deep Breath.
