Consider on These Women Who are Pro-Choice.

   Consider on those who are pro-choice, and be not quick to cast distain upon them. Among them are those who cannot afford a child, those who humbly acknowledge they cannot provide proper care for the child. Yes, and among them are they who -- though the act might not have reached rape -- went into the night against their will, and they who were enticed by men seeking only to draw pleasure from their beds.

   What have I done? these women said in the morning, some without even knowing a child would come.

   I do not say abortion is right, even in such a fix. Nor do I say they were right in what they did. Still, consider on them. Have compassion. Consider the tears that flow from their eyes, and the heartache they go  through. Consider the host of them who are not wicked people, but rather who often are quite honorable.

   Consider that many of them -- who knows what proportion -- do not believe life begins at conception. They seek not to take a life. Consider that they are told by those they trust -- both by authority figures and loving friends -- that life does not begin at conception. However quick they are to believe, many of them are persuaded to their beliefs by others. Mistakes can draw their decisions from the friendship of others.

   Consider on these women, a wonderful bunch they are. Would we view them as our enemy? Would we distain them and cast stones at them? I think it not necessary. I think it not worthy of us. We are called to love all mankind, and told not to judge.
