What if Our Founding Fathers Just Said “I’m Personally Opposed, But . . .”

“Of course I care, but it’s not my problem.”



Carol Tobias,
National Right to Life President


What if the members of the 1776 Continental Congress had said that in response to the struggles of the American colonies under British rule? What if they had just shrugged and returned to their busy lives?
Thankfully, they didn’t.
They declared freedom from the bonds of oppression. They founded a nation on the idea that “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”.
Think about what those words mean this weekend, because in the half-hour you spend watching a fireworks display, about sixty babies will be aborted in the U.S. They will never experience life, let alone liberty or the pursuit of happiness.
