As we try to morally step through the minefields of life in America today, with laws that don't make sense and the resulting misery for millions, what does it mean to be moral?

Are WE really blameless when we allow butchers do their bloody work with the impunity of knowing there are no consequences to murder simply because the law wrongly allows it?

What measures are appropriate to save a million babies a year? Or have we been reduced to Stalin's "One death is a tragedy. A million is a statistic" that even we don't see the magnitude of the horror? Do we really have "less" blood on our hands because we've not done what may be necessary to save those children for all these many years? After all, if all that these butchers respond to is intimidation, who's fault is that?

Is the fight to end abortion different than the fight to end slavery during the Civil War? If so, how? After all, isn't the issue basically the same, that an entire segment of the human race has been declared "non-human" by the laws of man not nature and thus not deserving of basic civil rights of which the right to life is the foremost?

Regarding the scourge of slavery, Lincoln said, "If God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn by the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said, "The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether."

What is the difference?

I don't know the answers, but are not questions appropriate at this time, especially when the cost in blood every year is so high and it appears that God himself has turned his back on our nation as we seem to have turned our backs on Him?
