Abortion Ordained by Holy Scripture
RECEIVED Fri., Dec. 1, 2006
Dear Editor,
If Rep. Frank Corte is basing his pro-life interference in women's lives on Judaic/Christian beliefs ["Frank 'the Fetus' Strikes Again," News, Dec. 1] then he should take a quiet evening to study and meditate on Numbers 5.
This scripture clearly is a procedure for abortion if the woman's husband believes she has been unfaithful.
If she has been unfaithful then, as I understand it, God will abort the fetus and the woman will be rendered barren.
Abortion is a media issue, therefore, a safe one for public men to display their moral outrage.
I would like for Rep. Frank Corte to address child rape with the same fervor. Child rape leaves a bloody victim who can tell the story and in that voice is a demand for justice.
Child rape is a man's crime. Abortion although ordained by the Holy Scriptures (Numbers 5) has been made to be a woman's crime by vocal public men.
Nowhere in holy scripture is rape of any kind ordained.
Rep. Frank Corte I challenge you to sponsor a bill that demands a life sentence without the possibility of parole for child rape.
Numbers 5.
