My wife gave birth to my first baby girl a little over a year ago, thankfully it was a normal pregnancy.  During the 9 months of belly growing  I stood side by side my increasingly beautiful wife.  I suffered through her back aches, inability to get comfortable, and the morning sickness which seemed to last the entire term.  Furthermore I held her hand the 13 hours of labor she had to endure and looked her in the eyes, to tell her it would be ok, when she received her epidural.

In the moments up until my daughters birth I happily held my wife’s leg, counting the entire way in between contractions.  I was there when I daughter finally came into this world, I was by my wife, I went through the entire blessing by her side.  After the examination, I was the first person to feed my beautiful girl and the first to wipe the sweat from my wife’s brow.  I understand the pain she went through, just as I understand the joy she felt looking at our daughter for the first time.

Should I be exempt from discussing abortion and women’s rights just because I’m not a female?  Can you not have an opinion on war, even though you’ve never killed a person?

Should morals falter depending on the circumstance?  No, morals should always be upheld.  It’s an obligation to take the higher road and endure what may be difficult because you know it’s right.  It’s not a God given right to kill a life, it’s a decision that’s made and doesn’t require the same sex to understand.

I truly believe every life is precious and God has bestowed great responsibility unto females to bring life into this world.  Whether you are male or female there is no justification for destroying God’s gift.  The life that’s been created is here for a reason and that reason should not be snuffed out, no matter our short-sited views.

Every definition of abortion begins with the word ‘murder’.
