I had only been working for **censored** for a few weeks when a friend of mine came for a visit. She’s one of my best friends, and she’s an extraordinary person, full of love and compassion. She is also pro-abortion.

As the social media coordinator, I have the responsibility of finding stories on LifeSiteNews.com and posting them to Facebook and Twitter.

I spend a lot of time reading articles. While my friend was visiting, I was reading an article that contained the illustration displayed here, of a D&E abortion of a 23 week old baby.

My friend looked over my shoulder and gasped.

“What are you LOOKING at?” she asked, horrified.

“That’s an abortion,” I answered plainly.

“But, that’s a baby!” she exclaimed. “That doesn’t happen!”

“That’s a 23 week abortion. That happens quite frequently, actually.”

I tried to remain calm.

She’s not stupid. Really, honestly, she isn’t. She’s actually incredibly intelligent, educated. She has a degree.

I truly believe that my friend has been deceived.

How else could an intelligent, loving individual be completely “pro-choice”?

Deception.

People are told what they want to hear, that it’s “just a blob of tissue,” or they’re told, “abortion is OK in certain circumstances,” and most importantly, they’re told “abortion is a woman’s right.” But when they are presented with the reality that what they thought was a blob of tissue was actually a baby, a human being, a lot of them change their minds. Yes, a lot.

She just stared at the illustration with pain in her eyes.

“I don’t know if I’m OK with that.” She said with finality.

The reason I am telling you this story is not simply to share the pro-life message.

I am telling you this to explain to you the importance of supporting pro-life organizations and sharing the truth.

It’s one thing to read a story and have your pro-life beliefs affirmed, but it’s another thing entirely to take that information and spread it as far and wide as you possibly can.

And we have seen time and time again that the truth is what changes hearts and mind. …

An African tribe does the most beautiful thing.

When someone does something hurtful and wrong, they take the person to the center of town, and the entire tribe comes and surrounds him.

For two days they'll tell the man every good thing he has ever done.

The tribe believes that every human being comes into the world as Good, each of us desiring safety, love, peace, happiness.

But sometimes in the pursuit of those things people make mistakes. The community sees misdeeds as a cry for help.

They band together for the sake of their fellow man to hold him up, to reconnect him with his true Nature, to remind him who he really is, until he fully remembers the truth from which he'd temporarily been disconnected:

"I AM GOOD."

If you have a gift card for a certain store, but don't want to buy anything at that store, buy a Visa gift card with the gift card.

The stores will not let you do this, guess you'll have to outhack another fox.

This just makes me angry. Out of pillowcases? DO LAUNDRY YOU FUCKING INGRATE. Using a t-shirt instead of a pillow case doesn't make you a lifehacker. It makes you a slob.

Am I weird for thinking that the pro-life person dispassionately looking at pictures of dismembered babies is the terrifying one here?

Anti-abortion people are not real concerned with things like facts and truth. Or women's health and well being.

Side note: As we were jockeying for position in the over-crowded shallow end of the pool, this old dude in my water aerobics class said to me, "They must have advertised this on Amazon.com!" and my immediate thought was "Pluggers don't know how Amazon or membership-based gyms work."
