Quote of Note

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation



: 'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.
We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free.
:
: Amen!'

Illegal Immigration and Abortion


Please consider the possibility of a link between illegal immigration and abortion. Since Roe v Wade there have been upwards to 47 million abortions:

"Using AGI (Alan Guttmacher Institute) figures through 2002, estimating 1,293,000 abortions for 2003-05, and factoring in the possible 3% undercount AGI estimates for its own figures, the total number of abortions performed in the U.S. since 1973 equals 47,282,923."

There are at present an estimated 8-11 million illegal immigrants and another 14 million children born to them here in the U.S.

Please consider that God loves us and wants a full happy, healthy and prosperous life for us. I think that when he places us in the womb he also grants the blessings that set in motion all the economies of such a life. What if that life were aborted? Is God an "indian giver" that he would take back those blessings? Is it not possible that people are running across the border to scoop up the fallen blessings meant for those aborted children.
This thought first came to me when salaries began to run up during the technology boom of the late 90's. Business media began to report that the boom was unsustainable due to the lack of labor force. At that time I remember some in the U.S. celebrating 25 yrs since Roe v Wade and estimates of 25 million abortions safely performed. At age 25 a child would have graduated college and had a couple of years experience in the workforce. Add another million or so per year after that and we have a sustainable labor pool flush with youthful ideas, strength, and ambition.
Yes, I know that not all go to college to become tech. engineers, some work at Wal Mart and the like. Some even grow up to wash floors, farm, and mow lawns for a living. that is exactly my point.
It's just a theory or is it?
