Answering the wedge issue between right of personhood and right bear arms.

Feb 17

Posted by Wayne Smith in Hypocrisy, Personhood | No Comments

Both these rights are given by our creator. Somebody can not restore a life once it has been taken – justice demands an eye for an eye.

I’ve heard the argument that one can not support both rights – IE Guns equal death – abortion equals death. Yet those who make it suggest they are against the death penalty but pro choice? Their hypocrisy needs to be called out.

Half of this argument is a promiscuous lie – the right to bear arms or a doctors right to practice medicine, although both could kill does not give one the right to kill innocent people.

Likewise the right to justice to demand an eye for an eye. Is not a right of vigilantism. One simply is delusional to say the obligation of the state to punish criminals gives them a right to punish the innocent.

Unborn children do not commit crimes.

Necessary Read: Lila Rose assaulted by Planned Parenthood escort

Lila Rose assaulted by Planned Parenthood escort

Lila Rose is a well known pro-life advocate. As the president and founder of Live Action, she’s done a lot of really amazing work exposing Planned Parenthood for what they really are: an evil organization looking to profit off of the slaughter of the unborn by any means necessary. They’ll manipulate women into getting abortions. They’ll lie about the science. And time after time, they’ve been proven to look the other way when cases of alleged statutory rape are presented to them. All of this has been exposed to be light thanks to the hard work of Lila Rose. Whether you are for or against abortion is really irrelevant — every parent in America should be against Planned Parenthood for the crimes they commit and the lack of ethics possessed by this organization.

Now there are some things that necessary need to be said, although a full post is not necessary today:

This worker is also saying the the unborn child is not a baby. In other words dehumanizing it. Much in the same way blacks were not considered people before their “person hood” was legally established. The unborn child, viable or not, is nothing more than the property of the mother who has every legal right to dispose of it as long as the umbilical cord has not been cut.

Majority of States Working on Personhood Amendments

Hat Tip: Dakota Voice

Three additional states have taken up the “personhood” cause in a push to guarantee the constitutional rights of the preborn.

Iowa, Virginia and Kansas are now among more than 30 states pursuing personhood amendments – a move pro-lifers view as their best chance of ending abortion in the U.S.

“Personhood is a revolution of the pro-life movement,” said Keith Mason, co-founder of Personhood USA, in a statement. “It challenges what’s been done in the past, stimulates the movement’s present, and eradicates the need for pro-life efforts in the future. Personhood is the best hope to end abortion in America.”

In Kansas, a new pro-life organization – Personhood Kansas – is currently collecting petition signatures to push the state legislature to pass a personhood amendment. The petition is being passed around and promoted among Christians and other pro-lifers across the state.

“As a movement, we know what our goal is: to have all children in the womb protected by love and by law,” states Personhood Kansas. “It is important that we learn the lessons of history and rely on the moral clarity of our God-given moral law to guide our efforts not on demoralizing legal and moral subterfuge.”

Before dismissing efforts at the state level, consider the basic framework of how our system of government works. The state provides an important balance to the federal government, It would be the states that have the power to actually change the constitution.

Larry O’Donnell argues for God’s Judgement on Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) on Abortion

Communion is a Christian scriptural practice based on 1 Corinthians 11:24 “and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” For those who do not believe in Jesus by their own belief does not believe in communion. And if one does not believe what the scripture says about communion then its practice is an dishonest act to pretend to be something they are not.

Those who do should take time and consider 1 Cor. 11:26-29 “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes. 27 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he does not judge the body rightly.”

I do not know exactly what Larry O’Donnell believes, He has made the statement on National News that ‘Roman Catholic bishop who barred Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) from taking communion a “political hack.”‘ This is in issue to Partick’s pro-choice positions … there are many scriptural references against the choice to kill an innocent child because it is not loved. While what is in Partick’s heart is only known to God and himself his public actions are known to the world.

Psalm 139:13-15

“You did form my inward parts, you knit me together in my mother’s womb…you knew me right well; my frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret…”

Jeremiah1:4-5

“Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Before I formed you in the womb, I k(Living Bible Version)

Proverbs 24:11-12

“Rescue those who are unjustly sentenced to death; don’t stand back and let them die. Don’t try to disclaim responsibility by saying you didn’t know about it.”

Proverbs 6:16-17

“The Lord hates hands that shed innocent blood.”

Matthew 5:21

“Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill…”

Psalm 127:3

“Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is His reward.”

Patience Long-suffering and prayer resulted in Planned Parenthood’s director to defect.

I say defect because Planned Parenthood is seeking a gag order, and the director is to appear on FOX on Friday.

All of this is just a reminder, God is in control of tomorrow. Our part is to expose darkness and spread the truth. We don’t change the hearts of people, the holy spirit does that.
