God's minions and henchmen: Protest "Right to Life," even as god kills BORN children and babies by the millions...

The problem with ALL organized religions - at least those that profess an all-powerful monotheist creator - is that IF god is ALL-POWERFUL, then he COULD spare tens of millions of dying babies, traumatized and terrorized children, and even "unborn" babies of their cruel fates, BUT CHOOSES NOT TO. "HE" - the supreme being, ALLOWS tens of millions of children, infants and "unborn babies" to die deaths wracked in misery, suffering and terror.. while he allows others to bask in lives of luxury and power. Of course, according to religious dogma, god FAVORS some groups over others, and the measure of that "divine favor" is often expressed in great works (e.g. St. Peter's cathedral in Rome; the Hagia Sophia in the former Constantinople, etc) and wealth.

So once again, the Catholic Church and Protestant evangelical churches are trying to tell us that "ABORTION IS A SIN!" but babies killed in Lebanon, Iraq, and elsewhere (Afghanistan, soon to be Iran) by unexploded US cluster-bomblets DO NOT COUNT - they are Untermensch, not worth thinking about, praying for, much less talking about.

God/Allah/the Holy Spirt is indeed great, merciful, and above reproach!

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22 — They marched down Seventh Street on Monday chanting, singing and eventually flooding onto the Mall to show disapproval on the 34th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion.

In his annual call to the thousands of abortion opponents at the March for Life, President Bush, who delivered a telephone message from Camp David, said, “We believe every human life has value, and we pray for the day when every child is welcome in life and protected into law.”

The president told the group, “We’re making progress,” citing legislation that allows a person charged with killing a pregnant woman to be also charged with harming or killing a fetus.

Mr. Bush mentioned his signing the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, which is before the Supreme Court in a case to be decided this term.

Senator Sam Brownback, the Kansas Republican who announced his presidential bid over the weekend, had supporters fan out over the Mall to pass out pamphlets proclaiming him as “proudly pro-life” and “a champion of our values.”

After the Mall rally, the demonstrators marched up Constitution Avenue to the Supreme Court.

This is the first anti-abortion march here since the Democrats took control of Congress. The change is “challenging us to fight harder,” said Natalie Campbell, 18, who was at the rally with her father and their church group from Kokomo, Ind.

Joe Konopa, 19, who traveled here with more than 60 people from three churches in the Kokomo area, said, “They are picking up on the fact that more and more Americans, especially the young, are against abortion.”

Gail Babalonis of Hooversville, Pa., said which party was in control did not matter.

“The last eight years have been pro-life, and the only thing they got accomplished is the ban on partial birth abortions,” Ms. Babalonis said.
