It is true a woman’s body is her responsibility and therefore she should be making wise choices. Today, she has available to her so-called sex education and numerous contraceptives that one wonders why a woman with any common sense should be getting pregnant in today’s world. Nevertheless, all too often she does and then one hears the war-cry “My body, my choice”! Well, let’s consider:
‘There are a number of clear biological facts, and all sorts of legal precedents, that easily refute the claim that the embryo or fetus is simply part of the mother’s body. Consider the following:
- An individual’s body parts all share the same genetic code. If the unborn child were actually a part of the mother’s body, the unborn’s cells would have the same genetic code as the cells of the mother. This is not the case. Every cell of the unborn’s body is genetically distinct from every cell in the mother’s body. Though it’s possible for someone to have a transplanted organ that does not share the same genetic code as the rest their body, that transplanted organ does match the genetic code of the original donor. The same can not be said of an unborn child.
- Human embryos are not independently generated by the woman. According to former United States Surgeon General, C. Everett Koop,”we should not view the unborn baby as an extension of the woman’s body [because] it did not originate only from the woman. The baby would not exist without the man’s seed.”1
- In many cases, the blood type of the unborn child is different than the blood type of the mother. Since one body cannot function with two different blood types, this is clearly not the mother’s blood.
- In half of all pregnancies, the unborn child is a male, meaning that even the sex of the child is different from the mother.
- As Randy Alcorn states in his book Pro-Life Answers to Pro-Choice Arguments, “A Chinese zygote implanted in a Swedish woman will always be Chinese, not Swedish, because his identity is based on his genetic code, not on that of the body in which he resides.”2
- It is possible for a fetus to die while the mother lives, and it is possible for the mother to die while the fetus lives. This could not be true if the mother and child were simply one person.
- When the embryo implants in the lining of the uterus, it emits chemical substances which weaken the woman’s immune system within the uterus so that this tiny “foreign” body is not rejected by the woman’s body. Were this tiny embryo simply “part of the woman’s body,” there would be no need to locally disable the woman’s immunities.
- It is illegal to execute a pregnant woman on death row because the fetus living inside her is a distinct human being who cannot be executed for the crimes of the mother.3
- As of February 2013, at least 38 states have fetal homicide laws which protect the rights of unborn children independently of the mother (except in the case of abortion).4 These laws make it possible to charge someone who kills a pregnant woman with two counts of murder.
- Sir Albert Liley (the “Father of Fetology”) made this observation in a 1970 speech entitled, “The Termination of Pregnancy or the Extermination of the Fetus?”
Physiologically, we must accept that the conceptus is, in a very large measure, in charge of the pregnancy…. Biologically, at no stage can we subscribe to the view that the fetus is a mere appendage of the mother.5
- The late Christopher Hitchens, a prominent public intellectual, atheist, and abortion advocate wrote the following in his book, God is Not Great:
As a materialist, I think it has been demonstrated that an embryo is a separate body and entity, and not merely (as some really did used to argue) a growth on or in the female body. There used to be feminists who would say that it was more like an appendix or even—this was seriously maintained—a tumor. That nonsense seems to have stopped… Embryology confirms morality. The words “unborn child,” even when used in a politicized manner, describe a material reality.6
No matter how you spin it, women don’t have four arms and four legs when they’re pregnant. Those extra appendages belong to the tiny human being(s) living inside of them. At no point in pregnancy is the developing embryo or fetus simply a part of the mother’s body.’ https://abort73.com/abortion/mothers_body/

Romans 1:25 ‘Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.’
Men will worship someone or something for worship is in their DNA. For instance, murderous Cain was a man of worship albeit the wrong worship. Nevertheless, down
50th Anniversary of the Club of Rome
through the ages, man has worshipped someone or something!
God’s Word in the above verse tells us that man left to himself will worship and serve what has been created more or in place of the Creator Himself. For example, the religion of climate change has brought mankind down the aisle to worshipping at the altar of Mother Earth. Note these quotes;
‘…from R. Mark Musser’s book, Nazi Ecology: The Oak Sacrifice of the Judeo-Christian Worldview in the Holocaust:
“Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our duty to bring that about?” – The late Maurice Strong, then Secretary General of the United Nations Environment Programme
“In our deeply interdependent world today, the iron rule remains – our world is one, unseparated, and interdependent. It is this world that is threatened by the impact of man’s unplanned, selfish, and ever growing activities.” – Kurt Waldheim, former Austrian Nazi and UN Secretary General
“If radical environmentalists were to invent a disease to bring human populations back to sanity, it would probably be something like AIDS.” – Earth First! Newsletter
“We have wished, we eco-freaks, for a disaster or for a social change to come and bomb us into the Stone Age.” – Stewart Brand, Whole Earth Catalogue
“Human happiness, and certainly human fecundity, is not as important as a wild and healthy planet: Some of us can only hope for the right virus to come long.” – David Graber, biologist, National Park Service
“Given the total, absolute, and final disappearance of Homo Sapiens not only would the Earth’s Community of Life continue to exist but the ending of the human epoch on Earth would be greeted with a hearty ‘good riddance.’” – Dr. Paul Taylor, professor of philosophy, City College of New York.
“If I could be reincarnated, I would return as a killer virus to lower human population levels.” – Prince Phillip Duke of Edinburgh, patron of World Wildlife Fund.
“The earth is a mosque.” – Ibrahim Abdul-Matin, Muslim environmentalist
“The earth has a cancer and the cancer is Man.” – Club of Rome
“Nature is my god. To me, nature is sacred: trees are my temples and forests my cathedral.” – Mikhail Gorbachev, founder of Green Cross International, Club of Rome member
“Christianity is our foe. If animal rights is to succeed, we must destroy Judeo-Christian Religious tradition.” – Peter Singer, professor of bioethics at Princeton University’ https://prophecyinvestigators.org/gaia-worship-gaining-momentum-globally/
The Club of Rome believes that their report The Limits to Growth forty years ago “…alerted the world to the environmental and demographic challenges ahead. Today, we see that decades of exponential growth in both population and consumption are now colliding with the limits of Earths biosphere. Emergency action is more necessary than ever. We cannot turn a blind eye to the dual tipping points of species extinction and climate change”, said Anders Wijkman, Honorary President of the Club of Rome.’ https://www.clubofrome.org/project/the-club-of-rome-climate-emergency-plan/
As those in The Club of Rome see it the real problems facing us are ‘Climate change and environmental destruction; the crisis of the European Union and the rise of right-wing populism; concentration of wealth and casualization, tax evasion and youth unemployment’. https://www.exploring-economics.org/en/summer-academy-10-years-after Note the right-wing populism! Their goal is to take all your freedoms away.
Then there are those ‘Guided by a philosophy of deep ecology, Earth First! does not accept a human-centered worldview of “nature for people’s sake.” Instead, we believe that life exists for its own sake, that industrial civilization and its philosophy are anti-Earth, anti-woman and anti-liberty. Our structure is non-hierarchical, and we reject highly paid “professional staff” and formal leadership.
To put it simply, the Earth must come first.’ https://earthfirstjournal.org/about/
Murdering the unborn is another form of worship when the Creator is left out. Planned Parenthood is known for its so-called ‘family planning’ which is nothing but the murder of the unborn or also known as abortion. However, climate change also entails ‘family planning – stabilising the world’s population.’ Page 13 https://www.stockholmresilience.org/download/18.51d83659166367a9a16353/1539675518425/Report_Achieving%20the%20Sustainable%20Development%20Goals_WEB.pdf
There is also the usurping of male leadership for female leadership. Page

There is much much more that could be said but this will suffice to show that the world is at war against its Creator. This war with God has led mankind to ‘worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk’ which eventually leads ‘the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars’ in taking ‘their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death’ Revelation 21:8.
The answer is ‘repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ’ Acts 20:21.
Psalm 113:9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.
Watch the problems these women will have in the future. This is not normal behavior whether one is ‘religious’ or not! This says a lot about society and the nation in which they live.
