Live And Let Live
—
…..People come in all shades of opinions concerning abortion murder, ranging from the far left and abortion on demand without apology to people on the other end of the spectrum who are certain abortion murder is wrong in every instance. In the middle are some really “nice” people whose stance is essentially “live and let live.”
These are the “wonderful” non-judgmental folks who say about abortion murderers, “That’s their choice. It’s up to them.” Live and let live means these terrifically “moral” people choose to let others murder the unborn if they wish while they themselves live out their lives. “I’ll do my thing while you abortion murderers go about doing your thing over there. Keep on murdering if you want to. I won’t hinder you in your life and you shouldn’t hinder me in my life. Live and let live.”
That sounds great if you like the Yankees and I like the Astros. But the abortion issue is about murder. The “live and let live” philosophy of not getting involved in other’s affairs, not butting in, not deciding that someone’s course of action is wrong and working to end it doesn’t sound so nice and swell regarding this issue.
When you know that someone “over there” is being murdered because you hear the screams such as those of Kitty Genovese, and you do nothing because your philosophy is live and let live, you have deliberately turned your back on evil and let it continue. You have sanctioned murder and allowed it to go on. Instead of helping to stop the murder and save a life, you were silent and continued on your selfish way. You are even worse than those who passed the robbed and beaten man on the road. Your moral kindred is not the “Good” Samaritan. There’s nothing good about you involving this issue.
The 2500 unborn babies a day being murdered in this nation by abortion aren’t screaming, but the fact of it screams in your ear. You know it and if your philosophy is “live and let live”, then you’re driving by Planned Murderhood and all the other murder rooms and letting the slaughter continue. You’ve given tacit approval. You’ve said that it’s the choice of those murderous people to kill the innocents in the womb when NO ONE has the right to choose to murder another. Your morals are in the sewer system along with theirs. You simply think you’re better than they are, that you’re above and untouched by it all, but you are complicit in the murders by neglect.
Your philosophy in this case is not “live and let live” (live your life and let others live theirs). Your philosophy concerning abortion is to live your life and let the slaughter go on. Your philosophy is “live and let die.”
