Friend,
The 2020 Democratic candidates said a lot of extreme things last week, but what Bernie Sanders said made my jaw hit the floor.
Bernie argued that we needed to fund abortions in “poor countries” in order to control the world’s population. In other words, kill the poor kids to save the planet.
This is comic-book villain stuff that’s based on a combination of debunked population theories and nasty eugenics. This would be laughably stupid except Bernie really believes it.
Children aren’t disposable. Deep down, each of us knows that every child is created in the image of God, has dignity, ought to be protected, cherished and loved. The love we see every day in the eyes of moms and dads for their newborn babies is an inescapable reminder of that fundamental truth. Love is stronger than power. And that’s why we will never give up in the fight for life.
-Ben
