No one has a right to life if others deem them inferior and unwanted. No one is viewed as made in the image of God.
Rosaria Butterfirld writes, “And then, one day during worship, we sang Psalm 102 and it hit me between the eyes. Here was the line of my undoing: āAnd peoples yet uncreated shall praise and magnify the LORDā (Ps. 102:18). I got it: abortion is not a right or an entitlement. Abortion steals praise from God by denying image-bearers the opportunity to live through and for him. Abortion despises and attacks and destroys the image of God.”
What is at stake is the systemic eradication of the being and nature of the unborn child.Ā The Being and Nature of the Unborn Child: A Response to Planned Parenthood and the Atrocity of Corpse-Selling by Thomas F. Torrance.
