Daytime
television personality – Whoopi Goldberg – has decided that celebrating
Christmas can now be compared to the right to an abortion. She believes the observation of the most
significant birth of all human history – the birth of the Christ Child of
Bethlehem – is the same as a woman being given permission to end the life of
her unborn child.
Last week, Goldberg
engaged in a debate with her View
co-hosts about the separation between church and state in regards to public
Nativity scenes to celebrate Christmas. Then,
seemingly out of nowhere, she took the opportunity to bring up abortion saying
it is “the same conversation with a woman’s right to choose.” Goldberg argued, “What I do with my body is
my right. It is not your right to tell
me. The same thing is it’s – if you
believe in Christmas, it’s not my right ... and, you know, kids who didn’t go
to Catholic school had Christmas and they – we never knew what their religions
were, but we hung cause it was Christmas holiday.”
Goldberg’s
statement is absurd. How is the birth of
Jesus the same as the death of a baby? An
abortion affects not only the woman making the decision but also her unborn
child. Furthermore, the issue is even
more complex due to policy debates such as the federal funding of Planned
Parenthood (PP).
Goldberg
not only heinously compared celebrating Christ’s birth to the right to abort,
but she has also long been an advocate for PP – the United States’ largest
abortion provider – which carries out over 320,000 of the procedures every
year.
Remember:
PP relies on numerous corporate supporters to carry out its abortion agenda. Many major corporations … that you may well shop
with each day … donate to the organization either directly or through third
party groups.
Listen:
Don’t continue to say you are pro-life and continue give business to companies
behind PP. If more of us would cease to
do business with these companies, we can begin to make a change. If you don’t know these companies, click on
