AMBER Alert for Unborn Children

There was a piece the other day in our local Catholic newspaper, The Leaven, by Ron Kelsey that really grabbed my attention. It was called, "AMBER Alert for Unborn Children." Mr. Kelsey thinks we shouldn't make a distinction between our born and unborn children. He contends that we (society) "rationalize the following evil acts:

  • killing our children by chemical and surgical abortion
  • manufacturing them via IVF or cloning
  • conducting research on them via embryonic stem-cell research
  • manipulating them via prenatal genetic screening to eliminate those who are considered undesirable"
Wow, that's a lot to think about.
