Every year at end of the school year , safe grads are promoted . Usually messages and presentations are given in the hopes that it will save lives.Rightfully so , for many of the youth will no doubt be at parties that can get out of hand . Along with the the words of warning come the visual . We have all seen them ,a wrecked car with its crumpled roof that looks more like an accordion than a car. I have even read where they have even shown kids a real accident scene with all its gore to hammer home the point. Don't drink or be on drugs and drive.
I have no problem with the graphic presentations. As they say , a picture paints a thousand words. It may jolt someone who just will not listen or for that matter ,does not care.
Now here is the thing that gets me. In the fight over the atrocity of abortion , many cry foul if a woman is subjected to the real pictures of abortion. They say its unfair and cruel to do so. But how many of the same advocates who cry foul here , have no problem with showing the wreckage a real accident or those who protest war , the real victims .
The fact is the only reason that pro choice advocates do not want these pictures published is because it humanizes the abortion. It removes all the clinical , the sterile aspect of it and in graphic terms , makes in human. You are confronted that what is being brutally destroyed is not a lump of cells , a non-human "it" but a baby. A small little human being made in the image of God. He or she unique and unlike any other human being on this earth.
Evil can be so sterile and unseen if we let it be. The bottom line is if you are willing to kill an unborn child , you at least should have the courage to look at what you have done.
