The message that is being
heralded day and daily from our government is that we need to pay attention to
the scientific data regarding the coronavirus, and by following the science we
will save lives.
This of course is great
counsel, but there is a sickening irony and hypocrisy when we remember that the
Britain has legally terminated the lives of about 9 million unborn children
since 1967, and has just (on 31st March) imposed abortion on demand
(up to twelve weeks) in Northern Ireland.
What about following the
science and saving lives?
Scientifically, there is no
question that life begins at conception. The foetus is living – it is growing
and developing and thus is obviously alive. There is no question it is human –
what else could it be? It’s not canine, feline or bovine. And there’s no
question it is a distinct human being – it has its own unique DNA.
So, science shows us that
the foetus is a distinct human life. What about following the science and
saving lives?
