Joe Biden’s solicitor general dismissed adoption as a viable alternative to abortion last week in front of the U.S. Supreme Court. The solicitor general made the case that the so-called right to abortion keeps a woman from having “a child out in the world.”

Life News reports:

In an exchange with Justice Clarence Thomas, U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar implied that ending an unborn child’s life forever would be less of a burden on women than living knowing that their child is growing up with another family.

The National Review’s report notes:

Responding to a question from Justice Clarence Thomas, she explained that pregnant women have a threefold “liberty interest” in abortion. The right to abortion keeps women from having to go through pregnancy, to go through childbirth, and “to have a child out in the world.” Notice how that third interest is framed. The “freedom” that Roe v. Wade promises — that it insists the Constitution protects — includes not only the freedom from having to raise an unwanted child but the freedom from knowing that someone else is raising her.

It includes, that is, freedom from adoption.

Life News adds:

[Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney] Barrett asked lawyers for the pro-abortion side to explain why safe haven laws and adoption do not relieve the “burden of parenting” – a reason mentioned in Roe v. Wade for legalized abortion.

“And insofar as you … focus on the ways in which forced parenting, forced motherhood, would hinder women’s access to the workplace and to equal opportunities, it’s also focused on the consequences of parenting and the obligations of motherhood that flow from pregnancy. Why don’t the safe haven laws take care of that problem?” Barrett asked, according to Business Insider. “It doesn’t seem to follow that pregnancy and then parenthood are all part of the same burden.”

So, you think that allowing your neighbors the right to kill their unwanted babies would solve the dilemma…
Sadly, most have no idea nor understanding as to how Holy and Righteous our God is, and that is why He is also Just, in all His ways, and the Bible warns us that vengeance belongs to Him.
My consciousness tells me that no society that stoops so low, that they would allow the murdering of innocent lives in the womb of their mothers should itself not be allowed to live.  I think maybe that is why God has been sending His warnings of the destruction of the United States over for destruction since the mid-1980s…
On the night of Jan. 22, 1997, the 24th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s approval of the Roe vs. Wade Bill, the Holy Spirit whispered in my left ear after my prayers that night saying, “I will repay the United States double for her iniquities.” I had prayed about having heard on the radio that morning that there had been approx. 26 million abortions here in the United States since the approval of Roe vs. Wade Bill.
The United States is on the very edge of the abyss, and there is absolutely nothing that you nor anyone else can do that will stop this destruction.
Praise the LORD, God will save the individuals who repent of their sins and accept Christ Jesus as their LORD and Savior.

I will be curious if the civil war ever develops. At least moderate decency and good against pure evil. If a child’s life is disposable even after birth one can only imagine their concern (lack of) for the value of life on the other side of the aisle.

When one pushes God out of the equation, but instead declares self as god, nothing else can be expected of man or woman.

Crash and Grab lefts new holiday’s battle cry, the left can’t govern from biden to democrat governors to democrat mayors to democrat DA’s. It’s the American right, to protect your family, your home and your property, remember the left’s battle cry, de fund the police. States follow the lead of Florida,take back your state from the crazy socialism ideas that don’t work. State’s, take back control of your state, from Federal abuse, un American mandates from the mental loss dictatorship just are not working. Florida takes the lead again, against biden corruption, Biden is trying to kill our Country, lack of border security,control, energy shortages, Great idea Ron DeSantic, has hope other States follow their lead, Florida Governor DeSantis to recreate ‘State Guard’ Outside of Federal Control Think, it’s a great idea, the democrats have lost their mind on border issues, if Florida thinks it’s a great idea, get it done, as long as corrupt person like biden in office,our Country is not safe, safe from non llegal drugs, non citzenhips terrorist, invader plagues, biden and son have sold our Country down the drain to Russia and China for their ill gotten pot of gold. Let’s take a look at other energy decisions made the biden crimes, Kill the Keystone XL Pipeline, threatened to plug the Canada-to-Michigan Enbridge Line 5 pipeline –Halted oil leases in a sliver of Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge –Stopped oil and gas leases on federal lands –Proposed a methane tax that could cost this industry up to $10 billion annually, encouraged Left-wing activists to pressure financiers to de fund oil companies, approve the Russian pipe lines. Does this sound like one who has American interest at heart or someone who has sold our energy assets off for personal gain, look at the recent decision he made. These decisions are not American made nor in our best interest. States take back control of your State hood. Hands off China the greatest pollution maker on the planet, policy by ball less biden and ball less kerry.

The Americans believe that God will protect the United States from all other nations because they believe themselves to be more righteous than all others around them. They think that no one can touch them because of the power which their weapons of war possess.
However, this government of the people, by the people, and for the people has worked tirelessly for the last one hundred years or so to drive God out of the government and every area of our lives; thus, we have ended up with the most corrupted government of all the world.
This government has allowed the slaughtering of approx. 70 million of the most innocent of all lives in the womb of their mothers, and then they cry out against those who have abused their pets; these are some of the most unrighteous, and godless people on all the Earth. They call their lies the truth, and the truth, they call lies. Thus, they are a people whose hearts have waxed gross to where they neither hear nor see the dangers that lurk all around them. 
 
God has seen the wickedness of their hearts and the abominations they have embraced; thus, He has given the United States over for the destruction she has so freely sown throughout this Earth for the last one hundred years or more.
The only hope we have lies in our faith in God’s WORD, and Yeshua, the Christ, He will save the individual who repents from their sins and accept Him as their LORD and Savior.  
No one is so good that they do not need God’s forgiveness, and no one is so evil that they cannot be forgiven and saved.

If you don’t want to take on the responsibility of a child then DON’T have sex! Rape is one thing a woman has no control over. My mother was raped and gave the baby up for adoption. My sisters friend had consensual sex and had an abortion so her husband would not know she cheated. BIRTH CONTROL LADIES!!!

Some really sick people in this world! They prefer abortion vs adoption? What about the fact you are agreeing to murder.
It is really about the fact people are not willing to take responsibility for their actions and prefer to make the baby suffer. God will punish and/or find a place for you.

I understand your feelings, but we should pray for Prelogar and others like her. Never forget that God forgives every sin if the sinner confesses and repents. This woman is living in darkness, as are so many others. God’s mercy and love is infinite!

What about the mental anguish later that you killed your child. Many women are suffering remorse from abortions. Keep out of sexual relations outside of marriage or use birth control you so called scholars.
