More Pro-Life Thoughts
Ever since I heard about the Pro-Life day of Silent Solidarity I have been thinking about the issue a bit more deeply. I ran across something that puzzled me. I was on Facebook looking at items that my friends had posted and I read about some group that one of my old friends from high school was supporting. It was some kind of animal rights group that showed a video of a rabbit screaming while it was being killed. Don't get me wrong, I love animals, however I do eat some of them (not bunnies) and I am all for being humane to animals. What perplexed me was the other things that this person had posted in the months prior. It was clear that this person was definitely pro-choice. There were things posted about the government trying to control what we do with our own bodies, like campaigns to make abortion at any stage illegal. I guess what i don't understand is how someone can place the "rights" of an animal above the rights of a human. Protesting and going nuts over animals being killed for fur or food when there are children being brutally murdered every day in the name of choice. At least when that animal dies it continues to serve a purpose, but these children are being tossed in the garbage like a piece of trash. I just can't seem to wrap my mind around how Mr. Fluffy's life has more value than a human being. It breaks my heart to think about this stuff, but I can't stand to sweep it under a rug either. It's just so confusing.
