ABOUT YOUR CHOICE
Working in an abortion clinic can be extremely stressful. It’s a dirty job that few people want or understand. Pro-choice people praise you for your courage. Prolife people taunt you for your sins. They call what you do murder. You call it choice.
HAVE YOU EVER ASKED YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS?
- Why the politicians who vote pro-choice wouldn’t do what you do?
- Why the administrative people in your clinic wouldn’t do what you do?
- Why most of the women from the feminist organizations wouldn’t do what you do?
- Why most of your own friends who support you wouldn’t do what you do?
- Why you are among a very few who are willing to do the dirty work of abortion?
- If doing the dirty work of participating in the abortion procedure itself is so repugnant to so many outspoken, staunch pro-choicers, what does that say about you?
FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHOICE
- In spite of more than 20 years of legalized abortion in the U.S., child abuse, spouse abuse, murder and rape have increased dramatically.
- Teenage pregnancy is still at an all-time high.
- Abortion has decreased self-esteem and self-worth among all ages, especially among teenagers, whose suicide rate is steadily increasing.
- Thousands of women have sought treatment for psychological and emotional trauma from abortion.
- Once we accept the killing of human beings at one level, it progresses to all levels, as we now see with assisted suicide, euthanasia, and the partial-birth abortion.
- A society that kills its children cannot survive.
EXAMINATION OF CONSCIENCE
You are among a select few who carry the blood of abortion on your hands. When abortion is no longer acceptable in our society, you will no longer have the political, administrative, feminist and friend support you now have. These abortion advocates will be distancing themselves as far away from guilt as they possibly can. Unfortunately, since you have been an actual participant in the taking of human life, you will not be able to free yourself from the guilt as easily and you will find yourself alone. You will be taking the burden of guilt of an entire nation on your shoulders. This will be your reward for doing the dirty work for "choice."
A MOMENT OF TRUCE
Deciding to leave the abortion business after working hard at something you have believed in for so long is very difficult. I know because I have been where you are right now. I spent five years working in an abortion clinic and defending "a woman’s right to choose." But I also know that you will never find peace of mind or heart until you do leave. And when abortion is abolished in this country-- you will not find yourself alone but among friends who, like you, have found peace and reconciliation with God.
If you or anyone you know is in the abortion business and
would like to get out or would just like someone to talk to,
