I was very disappointed to read more of the same, tired argument in the July 21 letter to the editor asking people to pick anti-abortion candidates. I wish the writer had written a letter to the conservatives in America who believe it is their place to determine what a woman’s responsibilities are when she gets pregnant, but want to gut every program that helps those same children once they’re out of the womb.
How about writing a letter to every one of your leaders telling them to fund food banks and school lunch programs, with high quality foods? If you’re going to demand that women bear children, then don’t disregard those same children once they’re living beings on this planet. If, as you say, all human life is equally precious and important to the creator, then be at the forefront of supporting every issue to assist those beings, not just picking and choosing your issues based on your religious beliefs.
