Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler for discussion of the Musk-y shake-up, Biden’s pardons and forgiving student loans in the last days, Trump’s job applicant pool runneth over, Fauci’s job at Georgetown, the Left is San Francisco, bomb attack in Germany, and being a guest in a foreign country.
Regarding the Joe Biden pardons: Isn’t it interesting that his “regard for human life” is sufficient to prevent death sentences from being carried out against adult murderers but somehow doesn’t extend to carrying out death sentences against fetuses?
John,
You’re right on the money. When human life is reduced to a “choice” and stripped of its humanity it becomes very easy to commit the most unspeakable horrors.
Agreeing with Dr. Beaman, not death sentences for fetuses only but death for viable and birth-ready innocent human babies.
Find out who is calling the shots, Biden is to incapacitated to run a food cart. This group must be held accountable or this will happen again.
Once a fetus becomes a “person” it is entitled to Equal Protection Under the Law. It is left to the States to legally define when a clump of Human Cells stops being a Cancer and begins to be a Person.
At conception, a new person is created when two sex cells unite. Each sex cell contributes one-half of the genetic material for a human being. This new person is not a sperm cell or an egg cell but a distinct entity from its parents that immediately begins to function as a growing and developing organism. Every human being is the result of this unification and begins their life this way.
More than a biological process, people are formed by God and a person’s life not only has a beginning that is known by Him but God knows his end as well. We should be very careful not to harm people in any stage of life, whether at its beginning, middle, or end.
Psalm 139:13-16 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
A human fetus is a human being and merely describes a stage of human development with its physical characteristics. Hence, every person is entitled to equal protection under the law.
What you should be concerned about is God’s law. God makes man in his image. There are certain attributes of God given to man that are distinct from other living creatures and hence should not be violated. Man being made in God’s image, has the capacity for relationship and the potential to relate to God and honor him as his Creator and Lord. There are serious consequences for harming people made in God’s image.
Genesis 9: 5,6 And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.”
God applies the protection of his law for each innocent human being. The consequences for taking a man’s life is physical death. Capital punishment carried out by the government is meant to uphold the sanctity of innocent human beings and the image of God that they bear.
There also is an accounting by God at his final judgment. His divine law supersedes man’s reasoning and legal system. Divine judgment lasts forever.
A human fetus consists of human cells that are distinct from its mother and never meets the definition of a cancer.
A woman with cancer, has cells from her own body with all of her own genetic code with some alterations that cause her own cells to function waywardly.
A human fetus has genetic material that is distinct from its mother and this material is not her own. A human fetus is not a part of his or her mother’s body as it is genetically distinct individual, comprising a separate individual.
Until we get the issue of protecting innocent human life right, and understand the significance and sanctity of that first most important right, none of the rest will truly be corrected, but I and many others believe we have been given another chance by God Almighty to continue the beautiful experience that is being American and a country blessed by God.
Watching a smile break across your face since the election has given me hope that all was not lost. Carry the hell on VHD.
