Wars fought by the United States have killed thousands upon thousands of Americans. The War of 1812 had an estimated 22,500 dead. The Civil War had an estimated 620,000 causalities. World War I had an estimated 126,000 dead. World War II had an estimated 405,500 dead. The Korean Conflict had an estimated 53,000 dead. The Vietnam Conflict had 47,378 battle deaths and 10,799 other deaths.
Of course, the United States has fought in other wars and conflicts besides those listed. To account for those deaths, add an additional 200,000. (That number is probably inflated but I will use it for this illustration.) That is an estimated 1,485,177 men, women, and probably some children killed in wars fought by the U.S. in the approximate 230 year history of our country. That’s about 1.5 million people in 230 years. That’s a high price to pay for freedom. It’s a price that most of those killed were willing to pay.
January 22, 1973 is a “date that will live in infamy.” On that day thirty three years ago, 9 unelected men declared that women could legally murder their unborn babies. Over those thirty three years between 35 million to 45 million unborn babies were destroyed before they were even delivered. None of those babies had a choice. The slaughter continues today.
It is overwhelmingly sad. It is overwhelmingly tragic. On Sunday January 15, 2006, page A3 a large display ad was published in the Peoria Journal Star. At the top left of the ad was a picture of a small baby. To the right were these words, “Take my hand not my life…” The ad was calling attention to Sanctity of Human Life Week which was January 16-22, 2006. How ungodly, how unholy, how tragic! Human life in the United States is now so undervalued that it is necessary to advertise the importance of human life.

The supporters of the murder of unborn babies are fearful. They have not yet repented. They have not yet learned to fear the CREATOR of the universe. But, they are fearful. They are afraid, that with the changes in the Supreme Court, the Court will recognize the obvious—that each baby is a human life and that no one has the right to murder that life. Illinois’ two Senators voted against Chief Justice Roberts. Senator Durbin has said that he will vote against nominee Alito. I have predicted that Senator Obama will do the same. Nevertheless, the prediction is that Judge Alito will be confirmed. The baby killers are fearful that will be the case. They are fearful that Roe v. Wade will finally be overturned.

The Peoria Journal Star published an article (1/21/06. page B5) entitled “Group wants state to protect abortion.” “The Illinois chapter of the National Organization for Women is pressuring state legislators to do more to keep abortion legal in the state regardless of federal decisions…. The Freedom of Choice Act will not be drafted and introduced in the General Assembly until the 2007 spring session. Members of the group say they are trying to line up commitments from legislators. Essentially, the act would keep abortion in Illinois legal, even if the Supreme Court overturns the 1973 decision.”

Those who support life over murder and death are not finished. We can not relax. We can not stop fighting to save the lives of unborn babies. The supporters of the murder of the unborn have not repented. They have not relented. They will try to do state by state including Illinois what the unconstitutional edict of the Supreme Court did thirty three years before. This election at every level of government is important in preserving life over the “culture of death.” Continue praying, continue doing the will of the LORD, continue supporting candidates who support life over death. Encourage others to do the same.
