Abortion
Original Air Date: October 15, 2006 AudioLink_2006_1015
Show Category: Life/Misc
Show Description: Did you see the Ms. magazine article that has 5000 women who signed a petition saying they were proud of the fact that they had abortions. The quotes from that are stunning in their self-centeredness and lack of responsibility. South Dakota votes in early November on outlawing nearly all abortions including results of rape and incest. We are going to discuss what is right and wrong (not right or left) on this very hot topic. We will also have as our guest, Dr. Alveda King, nice of Martin Luther King Jr., to talk about her experience with abortion.

Rejoin #2  What It's Like by Everlast
She heads for the clinic and she gets some static walking through the door…they call her a killer... and they call her a sinner... and they call her a whore…Forbid if you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes…because then you might know what its like to have to choose
Rejoin #3  Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton
Would you know my name…if I saw you in heaven
Rejoin #4  What If His People Prayed by Casting Crowns
What would happen if we prayed…for those raised up to lead the way…and maybe kids in school could pray…and unborn children see the light of day
Rejoin #5  Brick by Ben Folds Five
It's not me you're dying for…she's feeling more alone than she ever has before
Rejoin #6  Baby of Mine by Alison Kraus
All of those people who scold you…what they'd give just for the right to hold you
