Seeing is Believing

"A picture is worth a thousand words", says the old proverb. This proverb proved true for Abby Johnson, former director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Texas, USA. After volunteering and working for Planned Parenthood for eight years (in her final year she was the director of a clinic), Johnson was asked one day to assist in an abortion. She held the scanning wand in place so that the abortionist could see on a TV screen what he was doing during the abortion. Watching the dismemberment of a 13 week old baby in the womb changed her mind completely. Within a month she quit her job, the clinic, and the entire pro-choice movement. She is now a prominent pro-life advocate. You can read more about Mrs. Johnson at www.abbyjohnson.org. You can view photos of aborted children at www.100abortionpictures.com. Be aware that these are disturbing images.

This space has employed thousands of words to demonstrate that abortion is bad for women and children. Millions more words have been used to try to convince people that abortion is actually a good thing. Yet one unvarnished view of an abortion in process was enough to instantly convince a clinic director to become pro-life. Direct contact with abortion reveals that it is the killing of a child, and surely no decent culture wants to normalize the killing of its own innocent children. No to abortion; yes to life.
