Obama administration takes another step to facilitate genocide against African-Americans
It seems that the Obama administration- headed by a man who purports to seek the healing of our nation's deep cultural and political divisions- is seeking to reverse a Bush administration rule allowing doctors and other health care professionals whose consciences prohibit them from facilitating abortion through their counseling to honor those consciences.
Such convictions may or may not be based on religious beliefs; there are many pro-life atheists and agnostics who perceive that to fail to recognize the personhood of any living member of our species crosses a line which makes it ultimately impossible to guarantee the sanctity of any member of our species we find it personally or politically expedient to objectify. It's fascinating to note, however, that the media (and the article linked to is no exception) automatically assumes that such convictions must of necessity be religious.
It should be mentioned that the leading cause of death in the African-American community is not heart disease, or cancer, or guns. It is abortion.
As Dr. King put it, "The Negro cannot win if he is willing to sacrifice the lives of his children for comfort and safety." Ironic that the ascension of our first African-American president should mark the amplification of what amounts to nothing more or less than a form of genocide against African-Americans.
One out of every four African-Americans- 1,452 every day- is aborted.
The African-American community has a large and influential Christian component. Even secular African-Americans, one would think, would be outraged that such a thing is happening. Yet the African-American vote continues to go overwhelmingly to pro-choice candidates.
