Ben Carson: We Called Ancient Civilizations Heathens Because They Sacrificed Babies, But We Abort Them
2018-08-13
[LifeNews.com] Dr. Ben Carson has a way of putting things in perspective that endears him to pro-life activists. The neurosurgeon and the author of six best-selling books makes another compelling point about the issue of abortion that is sure to have eveyone who opposes abortion concurring.

He pointed out how ancient civilizations have been criticized for the brutal practices of human sacrifice and child sacrifice ‐ but he wonders if modern society isn’t "guilty of the same thing" because we have legalized abortion.

"Well, it’s interesting that we sit around and call other ancient civilizations heathen because of human sacrifice but aren’t we actually guilty of the same thing?" said Dr. Carson in reference to a question about abortion. "The good thing is the American populace is moving closer and closer to understanding that abortion is murder. Every year we’re getting better on that regard."

#5  We called ancient civilizations heathens for many reasons.

#4  Duh, because they don't define "fetus" as "human". They think it's like cutting hair or clipping toenails. How is it that in this day and age, we're not aware of this?

#3  We also wait till a known wolf strikes, not just terrorists, but criminals and the insane. That's because we do practice human sacrifice.

#2  Well. Anti prostitution campaigns center around shaming johns. The "war on drugs" waffles back and forth on attacking supply or demand. Every aborted fetus is the result of impregnation. Maybe take a look at that...

#1  Sadly this is my view on Progressive Feminists. They worship human sacrifice in the form of Abortion. Read what they say, how glorious it is and great they feel about it and you can tell it's a religion with them. Anytime you call to celebrate the death of an infant, you have set yourself outside of humanity. You might be people, but you are no longer human.
