THE DOGGIE IN THE WINDOW; THE BABY IN THE GRAVE

Here is the first sentence of a news report that came to my attention recently: “With more than 3,400 people dead in west Africa and 7,500 infected in the latest Ebola outbreak, 300,000 people sign a petition demanding action . . . to save an infected dog.” This was twice as many people as those who signed a petition demanding a cure be found for the deadly virus.

Wow! I actually had to read this twice as it blew my mind that so many people the world over would put their names on a petition to save a dog that could have been infected with Ebola. This dog, Excalibur by name, was an Ebola patient’s pet.

In addition to the petition, more than 400,000 “pet lovers around the world have flooded social media with adorable pictures of their animals as part of an international campaign to save the dog at the centre of an Ebola row in Spain.”

As it turns out, the dog was “put down” Wednesday by Madrid’s regional government. But the fact of the matter is that the plight of this one pet generated more interest and involvement than a single preborn child threatened and then killed by the act of abortion.

There is something dramatically wrong with this picture.
