Russell D. Moore has posted about why he hates Sanctity of Human Life Sunday.
powerful stuff. here is one paragraph, but go read it all.
I hate Sanctity of Human Life Sunday because I’m reminded that we have to say things to one another that human beings shouldn’t have to say. Mothers shouldn’t kill their children. Fathers shouldn’t abandon their babies. No human life is worthless, regardless of skin color, age, disability, economic status. The very fact that these things must be proclaimed is a reminder of the horrors of this present darkness.
Yes, it truly is a shame in the one sense. We shouldn’t even need to observe this day. However, in the other sense, I am grateful for the good that they do for the hurt and neglected.
