Americans Are All Responsible

Do you ne'er in shame turn your heavy head,
When you pass, by chance, the killing clinics,
Where unborn, and unasked, babes join the dead?
Does your silence place you among the cynics;
Or have your values twisted: Life esteemed,
For the breathing; slaughter for the unbreathed;
The convenience of their own mothers deemed
Of higher worth than the lives of the conceived?
Do you think the wombed one is not alive?
Ask the angel who's already assigned;
Or the soul, released ere he e'en arrive;
Ask God, whose anger soars, at those so blind!
Curse America, for her guilty shame,
But you vote, too, and are as much to blame!

Don't pretend you have no blame. Every American citizen is equally responsible for the legal actions of our government. If our government aborts babies under laws enacted by Congress or permitted by rulings of the Supreme Court judges, and it is in reality murder, ask yourself what you have done to express your disapproval. Hitler's Germany slaughtered 6 million Jews, and her citizens claimed afterward, "We didn't know about it!" Some might not have known, but in 1933 they voted for him and gave him the opportunity to become a dictator. We don't have that excuse. We continue to elect Presidents, Senators, and Congressmen who are pro-abortion.

Fifty million unborn but living babies have been killed in America since 1970, and 4 thousand more every day meet the same unfair, unjust fate. God created those lives in the wombs of their mothers (Read Psalm 139:13-14), and any doctor knows they are live people. Each doctor has to vow to keep the creed of Hippocrates, whose first words are: First, do no harm. Therefore, any doctor that performs an unnecessary abortion has broken his sacred oath, for money, I suppose.

Christians alone could abolish abortion in America by voting in accordance with what the Bible teaches. For Catholics, it has been declared by the Pope that voting for pro-abortion candidates is a mortal sin, yet 54% voted for Obama for president. But they are not the only Christians who abandoned their faith outside the voting booth. Americans are more to blame than Germans, for stamping their voted approval on the murder of 50 million babies. God is angry at us; it is too late already. Revelation 9 announces the three great woes that God in His wrath is going to pour out on the earth in the last days before Christ returns, and the United States is likely to be punished for its wickedness.
