"So What if Abortion Ends a Life? Rare Candor from the Culture of Death"

Al Mohler has a must read article entitled, "So What if Abortion Ends a Life? Rare Candor from the Culture of Death". He cites an article written by "pro-abortion" (intentionally not "pro-choice") Mary Elizabeth Williams. Williams says, 

“When we on the pro-choice side get cagey around the life question, it makes us illogically contradictory. I have friends who have referred to their abortions in terms of “scraping out a bunch of cells” and then a few years later were exultant over the pregnancies that they unhesitatingly described in terms of “the baby” and “this kid.” I know women who have been relieved at their abortions and grieved over their miscarriages. Why can’t we agree that how they felt about their pregnancies was vastly different, but that it’s pretty silly to pretend that what was growing inside of them wasn’t the same? Fetuses aren’t selective like that. They don’t qualify as human life only if they’re intended to be born.”

This rare candor might be encouraging if she went on to say, "therefore abortion is not morally right."  However, she goes on to say,

“Here’s the complicated reality in which we live: All life is not equal. That’s a difficult thing for liberals like me to talk about, lest we wind up looking like death-panel-loving, kill-your-grandma-and-your-precious-baby storm troopers. Yet a fetus can be a human life without having the same rights as the woman in whose body it resides. She’s the boss. Her life and what is right for her circumstances and her health should automatically trump the rights of the non-autonomous entity inside of her. Always.”

All life is not equal?! The intellectual honesty is of her argument is commendable, and the conclusion is nothing short of horrific. May God give us courage to fight for the weakest among us and to give a voice to those who have none.
