Take my hand NOT my life.

On facebook my dad did this birthday wish thing. It's like asking you to donate money to a cause for his birthday. He was asking people to donate to stop abortion. There was also a little story as to why you wanted people to donate to stop abortion. Here's what my dads said.


"This is why I care

I had a girlfriend in college who got pregnant, told me she was pregnant, and then got an abortion without my knowing it. Since then I have fathered 5 children, all of whom I love very much. If abortion had been illegal at the time, I would have 6 children to love. Hardly a day has gone by in 24 years that I have not thought of "who could have been", and to this day it pains me to think about it. I am STRONGLY against abortion. I believe life begins at conception and anything done to end that life is murder. I do not abdicate violence against abortion clinics, or the people who use them, but if people truly understood the love that Christ has for them, they would not be able to commit such a horrible act. Christian Adoption Services provides an alternative to abortion, while exposing people to Christ's love who may not experience it anywhere else. My son/daughter would have been 23 this year. That is the ammount I am requesting be donated in honor of him or her."

So, in other words, today I found out that I have a brother or sister, who was murdered before they even had the chance to live. Abortion was already something which I hated and was against, but knowing now that one of my siblings life was taken by it makes me hate it so much more. I could have had an older brother or sister but instead their mother decided without my dad that she did not want them. She was so selfish to not only take away that childs life but take away something from my father me and all my other sisters and brother.

Abortion IS wrong because it IS murder under any circumstances. Like my dad said there are other options then abortion. There is nothing or no one I hate more than abortion, if you believe that it's wrong, please donate to this cause, for my brother or sister who wasn't given a choice of life.
