Recently, I had the privilege of speaking with Congressman William Dannemeyer.
Congressmen know all kinds of interesting closed-door things about the U.S. Government. He
told me that he approached Henry Hyde, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and
asked why the Republican Party didn't speak about the economics of abortion.
Hyde told him they couldn't. They couldn't because the implication of such a position
would characterize the Republicans as more interested in money than people. Hyde said they
would have to speak about the ethics and the morality of the abortion issue and not bring
up the economic impact.
What was Dannemeyer referring to? Let's assume a conservative number of 1 ½ million
abortions a year since 1973. The total is about 41 ½ million missing. This means that the
American labor force is now missing 9 years of people over the age of 17, or 13 ½
million. No wonder there is a labor shortage. What about taxes, social security,
consumers, future homebuyers, and the availability of people for every occupation?
The only solution is immigration and illegal immigration, which is now taking place. By
2025 half of the American Population will be of Hispanic descent. They also don't believe
in abortion, at least not the rate at which the white European middle class has accepted
it.
In a visit to New York City at the end of October of 1999, I noticed that most of the
people I spoke to could not speak English. In fact, the African Americans were the likely
people to speak English. The City also has a huge Hindustani and Pakistani population.
They will soon own lower Manhattan.
In a December visit to Orange County, California, and Houston, Texas, I learned that
Los Angles County is more than 50% Hispanic, as well as San Diego to the south of Orange
County. Washington and Oregon have large oriental populations, many Texas towns only speak
Spanish, and Houston has a huge Hispanic population. Someone had to fill the void and do
the work. This country once belonged to Indians. It now appears that the day of the white
European is waning.
Many thought the disadvantaged, the poor, and particularly the African Americans, would
seek abortion and eliminate themselves. But the irony is that just to the south of me in
Detroit, is the largest African American population in the U.S. with the highest
illegitimacy rate, 72%, in the US. Four children out of wedlock is common for those who
receive welfare.
Well, God bless the people who want to keep their kids alive. The future and this
Country belong to them. It's just that my children, and particularly my grandchildren,
will be a minority in America.
Norma McCorvey is the anonymous "Jane Roe" of Roe vs. Wade. A former lesbian,
drug addict, alcohol abuser, and militant pro-abortionist, she is now a Christian pro-life
advocate.
In 1969, Norma was seeking an abortion. She had given up her first two children to
adoption. Radical feminist attorneys, Sarah Weddington and Linda Coffey, convinced her to
be the lead plaintiff in an abortion suit filed against the state of Texas. Weddington and
Coffey assured Norma that the case would both help her and greatly advance women's rights.
They needed her as a symbol of poor, pitiable, destitute women who were being denied a
fundamental "right". So they manipulated and exploited Norma for their hidden
agenda. In fact, she did not get an abortion. She carried her third baby (a girl) to term
and then gave her up for adoption.
On January 21, 1998, Miss McCorvey testified before the Senate Subcommittee on
Constitution, Federalism and Property Rights. She said:
"I'm sorry to admit that I'm the Jane Roe of Roe vs. Wade. The affidavit submitted
to the Supreme Court didn't happen the way I said it did, pure and simple. I lied! Sarah
Weddington and Linda Coffey needed an extreme case to make their client look pitiable.
Rape seemed to be the ticket. What made rape even worse? A gang rape! It all started out
as a little lie, but my little lie grew and became more horrible with each telling."
Somehow, McCorvey is exempt from perjury.
One of the amazing accounts of the Roe vs. Wade case is that Roe, Jane McCorvey, became
a Christian. The woman, who helped bring about the legal execution of at least 41 and ½
million babies for the last 27 years is now a Christian as of 1997. She details her
conversion in a book titled "Won By Love" published in 1998.
It is sad to learn that Vice President Gore, who as late as 1984 spoke against
abortion, is now in favor of abortion and partial birth abortion.
The church is not going to stop it nor should the church engage in the political arena.
It is up the citizens of this country. However, if you were a foreigner coming to the
United States, knowing that the Europeans who there before you were extinguishing
themselves, would you say anything about it?
Life belongs to those who want to live and to those whose children will follow them.
Christ died for the whole world. However, the 41 ½ million will never have children and
Christ didn't die for those who will never be conceived into the world nor will there be
eternal life for them in heaven.
We know that a gracious God wants all of those coming to our shores to hear the Gospel.
American Christians now have a solemn duty to lead these new people coming to our shores,
to Christ.
