My letter to the Twin Cities couple with on-line poll whether to get an abortion

There's a story this week about a couple in Minnesota that is 17 weeks pregnant (see attached photo of 17 week old child), and they are doing an online poll until December 7th to see if they should get an abortion. They are married and 30 years old. They say the wife has had 3 miscarriages and are not sure if this is convenient timing for them. "I wanted to wait longer because I was losing weight and living a healthier lifestyle," the wife said. They are currently doing the online poll, but say the results will not determine what they choose to do... (so far the vast majority are against the abortion.)

Here is my open letter to them:

By the very fact that you are married, 30 years old, and are considering abortion, you don't deserve this child. The fact that you put this up to an online poll is disgusting, and, should you decide the keep this child, one day your child will find out that you were debating killing them.

They will see that it was all about you and how selfish you are, saying that the timing is inconvenient. It's not some 'blob' inside of you, it's a real person. A person that is YOUR flesh and blood. That probably has one of your's eyes and the other one's mouth. Your OWN child that you are debating whether or not to murder, and flaunting it online. You are not worthy to have a child. Children are a GIFT from God. And God brings them to parents on HIS timing not yours. The right thing to do is NOT have an abortion (murder your child.) It's in God's 10 commandments, "Thou shall not murder." And then give the child up for adoption to a loving couple who will cherish this child and give him/her the life they deserve. Do you know how many people are on waiting lists to have children since they cannot have their own? Who would give their right arm to have a child? Who now go overseas and pay huge amounts of money for a child since so many mothers here in the U.S. abort (kill) their unwanted children? And after that, I recommend that you tie your tubes or get a vasectomy because you'll never have a convenient time. And you don't value human life, even when it's your OWN child. You should have been more careful not to get pregnant, but now that you are --

Two wrongs don't make a right...
