Freedom Requires Judgment

In one class we are having a discussion of partial birth abortions and the ruling in Nebraska. After getting sickened by all the folks who say they oppose abortion but cannot or will not judge others who do it I wrote this:

It IS up to us to judge. When we live in a free society where the people have the power we definately are placed in the position to judge, and by refusing we allow evil like these partial birth abortions to get hold. So many of the arguments that "support" abortion are red herrings and straw men. And so many people fall for it because they wont think deeply about it. This is a disturbing subject and most people won't go there. They'd rather plug their ears and talk loudly about something else.
