The Governor of Alaska is a witness to Pro-Life and Christian Love

The Governor of Alaska is a witness to Pro-Life and Christian Love
Alaska’s Governor Sarah Palin gave birth on Friday to her fifth child, a son who has Down’s Syndrome. She said in a released statement: “We knew through early testing he would face special challenges, and we feel privileged that God would entrust us with this gift and allow us unspeakable joy as he entered our lives. We have faith that every baby is created for good purpose and has potential to make this world a better place. We are truly blessed.” As many as 80% of unborn children diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome become victims of abortion. Governor Palin, known for her deeply-held pro-life views, did not let her child become a statistic, but warmly embraced her son as God’s gift.

A man who has lived and loved falls down dead and the worms eat him. That is Materialism if you like. That is Atheism if you like. If mankind has believed in spite of that, it can believe in spite of anything. But why our human lot is made any more hopeless because we know the names of all the worms who eat him, or the names of all the parts of him that they eat, is to a thoughtful mind somewhat difficult to discover. My chief objection to these semi-scientific revolutionists is that they are not at all revolutionary. They are the party of platitude. They do not shake religion: rather religion seems to shake them.
