What do we do about crime?
They say, "What goes around comes around." When we have it on the books as law to take the life of the unborn (alright, fetus), is there a difference in a life of the unborn or the life of ten year old or the life of a 90-year old? I think not.
Life is made in cooperation with God. When we leave Him out of our lives, God doesn't force Himself on us, He is there. To accept or ignore, it is up to us.
We must not speak of God in schools, take Christ out of Christmas even though it's His birthday. Take religion out of Easter, call them spring break, fall break, etc., but keep God out! What can we expect? If we leave God out, we have to suffer crime.
"For a small reward a person will hurry away on a long journey while for eternal life many hardly take a single step."
