Who should pay for this?<\/h4>\n

Yesterday I had one of the most disturbing experiences of my life. I have been feeding cattle for a neighbor who is out of town. His cows are currently calving and when I arrived, it was apparent to me that one of his young heifers was in the middle of calving problems.\u00a0 She was a small heifer and was having difficulty progressing.\u00a0 My son and I sought to deliver the calf and made it to the point of the claves hips.\u00a0The calf was dead already but in order to save the mother, we needed to get it out.\u00a0 When the calf got to the hips, it \u201chip locked\u201d with its mother and we could go no further.\u00a0 After struggling for an hour, we called the vet for help.\u00a0 When he arrived, he could not get it out either.\u00a0 After scratching our heads, we decided the only way to deliver the partially born calf was to take it out of the mother piece by piece.\u00a0 We knew it would be gruesome but seeing the calf was dead already it was our only alternative.<\/p>\n

In the midst of the nasty dissection, I turned to the vet and asked him: \u201cCan you imagine doing this to a human baby that is still alive?\u201d At that moment, the barbarity of abortion clarified in my mind like it never had before.\u00a0 I have always been \u201cpro-life\u201d and an outspoken advocate of the pre-born; but never have I felt such revulsion for a practice that literally dissects a tiny child one limb at a time to extract it from the womb of its mother.<\/p>\n

Even more horrifying, our current President has advocated and voted time and again for unrestricted access to this barbaric practice.\u00a0 He advocates and is mandating that the tax dollars of American citizens be used to pay for a practice they find revolting.\u00a0 In the new Obama care medical system the government will even have a slush fund set up to pay for abortion on demand.\u00a0 The government will be enforcing religious institutions to even offer the coverage within their medical plans.<\/p>\n

Could anything be more tyrannical than to force Christians and other persons of various faith\u2019s to pay for a practice they find revolting?\u00a0 I think this issue will be a \u201chill to die on\u201d for the church.\u00a0 Will we passively sit by and do nothing- not only to save the pre-born but also bring more and more blood guilt upon our hands?\u00a0 As for me and my house we will not participate in this carnage.\u00a0 Look now for alternative medical coverage that will put you outside the realm of these governmental intrusions.<\/p>\n

I would advocate for Samaritan Ministries<\/a> as a great alternative to health insurance.\u00a0 Go to their web site and see how they are providing medical help to the people of God without any government strings attached.\u00a0 Also, don\u2019t back down on this one for \u201cIt would be better for a milestone to be tied around our necks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Just been thinking,<\/p>\n
