As if abortion weren’t horrific enough….

Planned Parenthood was caught selling body parts of unborn aborted babies.

This morning, LifeNews released an undercover investigation they had done in which actors posed as buyers from a a human biologics company. The buyers were meeting with Planned Parenthood’s Senior Director of Medical Services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola. Over a lunchtime “business” meeting, Dr. Nucatola discussed in graphic detail how they use partial-birth abortions to supply intact body parts for purchase. 

“We’ve been very good at getting heart, lung, liver, because we know that, so I’m not gonna crush that part, I’m gonna basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it all intact.”

My heart broke as I watched this video. To think of those little bodies being ripped apart and being sold for a profit makes my heart grieve. I believe that all life has value. As a Christian, it is my duty to care for the vulnerable, the fatherless. and the lease of these.

We don’t have an abortion problem. We have a sin problem.

Even if Planned Parenthood closed it’s doors, and there were no more abortions, the root of abortion, human trafficking, sexual exploration, etc. is a heart that is desperate need of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Abortion is horrific. Selling another human’s body parts is unthinkable. We must demand justice, but we must also do it with great love. We must act, but we must seek the ultimate good of both the abortion doctor, the pimp, the mother, the child, etc.

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”
