See the picture of this adorable baby? This little miracle of life is around three to four weeks old. Sweet, right? Examine the picture again before you read on. See every detail of that face and those tiny hands. What comes to your mind? Maybe: Precious. Adorable. Darling. A miracle.
Besides the above, my thoughts are I want to smell that baby's head. Oh, I love the smell of a newborn baby. Don't you?
Now please let me convey my burning thoughts against a possible death sentence for some infants under the disguise of the Pregnant Person's Freedom Act of 2022 in Maryland.
I've not written about my pro-life beliefs for many years. I don't know where you stand on the issues. You are respectfully entitled to your opinion on a woman's "choice" for abortion. However, I appeal to your common sense and heart to read on. Thank you.
I heard a new Maryland legislation titled Sen. Bill 669. Of course, I needed to fact-check the unbelievable claim of this new bill. I read only a few lines which ignited my righteous indignation, causing my blood to boil beyond the boiling point. I cannot be quiet. I will speak on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves.
"Pro-abortion" politicians disregard the Sanctity of the unborn and it is those type of people who will perpetrate such bills. Yet, we as a Nation will and are paying a high cost. That, in itself, would be a whole other dissertation. Our Nation is reaping the ill-judged seeds we've sown for the cause of one's right to decide for another—one who cannot speak for themselves, whether their heart will continue to beat after birth.
Lines have been moved through the years from abortion in the first trimester, to the second trimester, and into and up to the third trimester in some states. If a baby is aborted, no matter if the child is viable, the infant will be left to die. The line has been moved again. And this is just as disturbing.
A new bill titled SENATE BILL 669 is hideous, shameful, and unspeakable. Sen. William Smith (D-Md.) has proposed this new legislation for Maryland in light that Roe vs. Wade could be losing ground.
THERE IS NOTHING RIGHT OR GOOD ABOUT BILL 669.
Americans, I appeal to you that there is a right and a wrong. Some issues cannot have a gray area.
Quoted from bill 669, speaking of an infant child. "Nothing in this section shall be construed to confer personhood or any rights on the fetus."We have gone beyond a slimy-slippery-slope in our free world when an unborn baby and a newborn is not personified, and has no rights. If this law passes, an infant up to twenty-eight days old is in danger. There will be no justice or concern for its early demise. Maryland, or any other state, proposing such hideous criminal legislation toward helpless infants will not recover from such a repugnant law. People in Maryland should be fully awake and muster a holy reverence and fear of the Almighty God, the AUTHOR of LIFE.
A nation that continues a path of devaluing life in or outside of the womb or through out a life span, is indeed facing God's judgments and sentencing of such lawlessness as He is the Ultimate Judge of all lawlessness. In God's Ten Commandments, Thou shall not kill, is not optional. No matter how one would like to spin it.
Here is a little knowledge of the things God hates if you have not heard.
God says:
"These six things the LORD hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren," Proverbs 6: 26-19; NKJ.
I wonder what web is weaved in Senator William Smith's soul. Perhaps moral depravity and disobedience toward the things of God. But I'm sure he's a nice guy and on his campaign trail kissed a baby or two.
The proposed bill is to protect a mother from criminal charges. For example, suppose her baby passes soon after birth, delivered outside of a hospital, maybe in a bathroom. In that case, she could dispose of her child in any way she chose. Or if she decided she did not "want" her child and allowed the infant to die, no investigation into the circumstances would be pursued. Such an infant would be classified as baby Doe.
There is much darkness around us as we live in a fallen world. We must question, do we add to this darkness? Should we allow a mother who might suffer from severe postpartum depression (see note below) to do as she thinks to her child? Is it okay that she's decided her three to four-week-old baby is too much for her? She can now leave her infant anywhere like a dumpster, abandoned building, a field to freeze, starve, and be unprotected from the elements and harshness of their surroundings. And said mom would be free from all charges of child abandonment, neglect, and the intentional murder of human life if she were found out. If we are civil human beings, then the answer is NO! NO! NO!
Let me tell you a personal story I've not shared with anyone but my son. I felt shame for a long time about this. When my son was three weeks old, we moved back to California from New York. We stopped at Niagara Falls on the way. I remember standing there watching the falls and hearing the rushing sound of the water. A thought crossed my mind to throw my three-week baby boy into the torrent of water. Thank God I didn't!
My son and I joke about it now; however, postpartum depression can be overwhelming, and some women feel as if they are going crazy. If this type of law was in place anywhere in the USA, and I acted upon the impulse, I'd be free from charges because he was only 15-days old. Postpartum depression is some scary stuff, and so is Sen. Bill 669.
The fact that 62 million unborn children have died at the hands of our laws for "rights" and "freedom of choice" and "My body, my right" since 1973 is sad enough for a civilized country. Mr. Smith, who was voted by the people, is creating a law that essentially would legitimize the disposal of an infant up to twenty-eight days old, without an investigation, without penalties, without justice. How is this acceptable? It's not!
I hope you will take 5 minutes to educate yourself on the Pregnant Person's Freedom Act of 2022. The link is below. The article, posted here, is by Steve Warren, senior multimedia producer for CBN News.
I hope you will be horrified, as I am, that this would even be a proposition here in the United States.
Stand up for truth. Stand up for what is right. Stand up and be heard for values that matter.
Note: Postpartum depression is a real thing. Many woman suffer from depression after having a baby due to hormones. I know I did. Postpartum depression does not lead mothers to kill their babies. Though there have been cases where postpartum depression has led a mother down that sad path.
