A child of God
I once went to a baptism, where the child was baptized by a
Bishop and afterwards the Bishop said “now he is a child of God”… really? What
was the baby prior to Baptism “chopped liver”… who created the child?
And this same Bishop covered up sexual abuses
on children and the rape of seminarians in his own dioceses … and hey they were
all “baptized” in the Catholic Church … but I guess that did not count to this
Bishop only covering his own butt did and the hierarchy's power and money does… so
at the end of the day does that Bishop’s truly believe in God’s grace and the power of
Baptism? Or is that Bishop more concerned about his own power and position in the Church and low on the list comes the "baptized" children of God …
But I have to say, I have had debates with several Knights
of Columbus members as well … who are Pro-life… until the baby is born then
they want to deny the infant and the mother health care, deny them food stamps
to eat or shelter to live in … so yes they are not killing the baby in the womb,
they are waiting for the children to be born and then killing the child with lack of health
care, food and shelter … such children are more vulnerable to child abuse and sex trafficking, subjects the knights do not want to address.
According to the Chinese,
when you save someone's
life... through saving
someone's life, you then were responsible for that person... from that
moment forward. You were obligated to look after them, and provide comfort and
aid if they were ever in need again.
I believe this to be true
and thus it makes everyone who is “pro-life” obligated to always care for the life they saved … if not, they on some spiritual level, are like a “dead
beat parent who walks away from their responsibility” …
Think of it this way … what if Jesus saved you on the Cross and then he just walks away and says “screw you,
you are on your own, I saved your life” … how would we feel about that and
could anyone of us survive such coldness, from “our Savior” … No of course not …
yet many feel it perfectly acceptable to save the life of an unborn child and
then just walk away and say, “screw you
to the mother and the child”… get your own food, get your own health insurance
and housing … how do you think that flies with God…and how do you think God will respond to you and your family when you need help... if you abandon others who are so vulnerable...
