Day of the Unborn Child
Yesterday was the Day Of The Unborn Child, as March 25th is the typical day the Feast of the Annunciation is celebrated. (On the Catholic Church calendar, it was postponed until today due to the 5th Sunday of Lent yesterday.) The Annunciation was chosen as the day to commemorate the rights of the unborn child since it was the day God became Man in the form of an unborn child after Mary said "Yes" to the Angel of God. (Get it? Nine months before Christmas.)
Events in Delaware include a march on Legislative Hall from 2-4 PM, which is especially timely, given the push for government funding of embryo-destructive research and a competing ban on cloning in the state. Also tonight at St. Polycarp in Dover is a free dinner followed by a Rosary at 6:30 PM and a Mass at 7 PM.
Remember today to ponder the plight of the unborn. One in three or four will bill killed in any number of way that would make liberals' worst nightmares about Guantanamo look like a walk in the park. Skulls crushed, brains vacuumed out of skulls, acid injected. you name it, and unborn children suffer it. Meanwhile, it's an international incident if a book is allegedly placed in a toilet. No wonder the West is perceived as so decadent. It's because we are.
If this is how we treat the weakest members of our society, what claim to moral rectitude do we have? Pray and work to save the lives of the unborn.
