Media Ignores Story of America's
Greatest Serial Killer

The story of abortionist/murderer Kermit Gosnell is so sickening that none of us want to give it any time. I have only been able to look at it out of the corner of my eye. 

 

But it is exactly what the main stream media usually loves--blood and guts. Of course, they have ignored it because it reminds them that they are on the wrong side of the abortion debate.

 

(Hey Media! If logic, truth, and morality conflict with your political views, maybe you should change your political views!)

  

Here is a version of the story that I was able to read without too much revulsion. It has some information that has not been reported in some other outlets (about how this killer was discovered):

We have an article at our Faith Facts site that offers some tips on how to dialogue with liberals on abortion. Don't worry, it is not gruesome. Just plain logic:

*********************

The utopian perfectibility that liberals crave is detrimental to society--indeed, not even possible by government edict or by any human effort. Liberals are deceived in thinking they are working for good. The welfare state, while well-intentioned, institutionalizes indolence and poverty--and is thereby immoral. The result of the welfare state is not true charity; rather it is theft from one group to benefit another group in order to keep the latter on the dole for political votes. 

While a just society will seek equality of opportunity and appropriate assistance for the truly needy, liberal redistribution schemes ultimately hurt both the recipients and the contributors. Wealth redistribution forced by the heavy hand of the state distorts the moral arrangement between parties when charity is freely given. There is a difference between a hand-up and a hand-out.

Biblically ordered liberty is moral. But liberalism in any of its forms, properly understood, are tyrannical. All forms of utopian statism have as their root the need to control other people by edict rather than by conscience. Statism is inherently inefficient, produces little, takes resources from the productive economy, and is therefore detrimental to growth and the welfare of a society. 

 

Liberalism has everything turned on it head. It punishes achievement but rewards failure. Liberal thought is often opposed to objective moral values and is opposed to a moral authority above itself. Thus liberal thought says that rights come from government, rather the American ideal of unalienable rights from God. It is demonstrably true that little is sacred with liberalism outside of one's personal subjective feelings or political power--not the Bible, not the Constitution, not the Rule of Law, not natural law, nor even life itself. 

 

Thus liberalism is the least likely system to honor the inherent worth of the individual, and the most likely to harm the most vulnerable in society such as the expendable elderly and the innocent unborn. Liberals' profession of tolerance is hypocritical as liberals certainly do not tolerate opposition to their errant views. Liberals are tolerant until you disagree; then you become a racist hillbilly. Indeed, the further left a society progresses the more it is intolerant and destructive--a fact proven time and again by history.

 

While liberals may be moral and well-intentioned in their own lives, their views are not consistent with what is good. In actuality liberals are working to tear down or distort everything that is good and elevate what is evil--including in art, music, culture, business, politics, science, sexuality, education, truth, beauty, justice, morality, and logic. So ironically liberalism is neither moral, compassionate, tolerant, nor effective. Christian capitalism is the most moral, leads to the most freedom, and produces the most economic benefits for society.

 

"One of the greatest mistakes is to judge policies and programs by their intentions rather than their results."                                                                 --Milton Friedman


If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?  --Psalm 11:3

Redeem us, Oh Lord, from man's oppression. Make your enemies like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind.  --Psalms 83:13; 119:124

With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor, but by knowledge the righteous are delivered.  --Proverbs 11:9

The liberal agenda has as its center piece the twin goals of compassion and fairness. However noble these goals may be, the dirty little secret of liberalism is that behind this respectable front, liberal policies actually produce the opposite!
 
For liberals, America is a 200+ year-old mistake. What liberals really want is the destruction of institutions that promote true compassion and fairness--including the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Rule of Law, natural law, Biblical Christianity, frugal and responsible government, and traditional western values. Their unstated goals are control and cronyism--ultimately the obliteration of anything that gets in their way of their lust of power. 
 
Liberal politics by its nature is divisive and unfair, promoting envy and covetousness among groups of citizens. Its beneficiaries are largely arbitrary and may include young men in baggy pants with their hats on backwards (sitting in front of a TV all day)--as well as the single moms around town that these studs impregnated. But just as easily liberal cronyism will cull other groups for support including union bosses, abortionists, bankrupting solar executives, or guilt-ridden movie stars.
 
Government intervention leads to dependency, which creates indolence, which produces economic stagnation. Liberals are mistaken in their idea that the economy is a pie to be divided up by government. The economy is a dynamic entity which grows by innovation and human effort. Only policies which promote growth ultimately benefit a society, including the poor.
