John Piper has some great remarks on the connection between racism and abortion. The link between the two gives hope that as the one used to be accepted and now is unthinkable, so the other will fade away as well.
| We should seek to stigmatize abortion by associating it with racism as closely as the truth warrants. |
| People today don’t oppose the enslavement of blacks merely because they think it’s wrong. |
| It’s easy to oppose it because to do so is fashionable.
That’s a good thing. It always helps when the right thing happens to be P.C.
So let’s be wise in showing the way abortion is closer to racism and slavery than people see. |
| The Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case of 1857 held that black slaves were property without rights as persons, yet today we view that as unthinkable. So the Supreme Court in the case of Roe v. Wade (1973) held that the unborn did not have rights as persons, yet we should hope and work that the day may come when that too is viewed as unthinkable. |
| Between 1882 and 1968, 3,446 black people were lynched in America. Today more black babies are killed by white abortionists every three days than all who were lynched in those years (L.E.A.R.N.). |
