Cass Harris has cerebral palsy. When she was born, her parents were handed grave warnings. Since then, God have mercy, some people have told her she’s living proof of why abortion is merciful. Cass is Christian. Let her shine a little light and love – and insight – into your life, via this short article.
My thanks to Randy Alcorn for inviting her to share her story at his ministry’s website.

It might be considered cool in certain (ruthless) circles to verbally trash those with Down Syndrome, or the parents who love them – but it is not playing well with decent people. Or with certain companies. Thank God.

Planned Parenthood has been drinking at a lot of public troughs in the United States. Reductions are being considered in some states.
At First Things, Joe Carter writes (emphasis in original):
Those of us in the pro-life movement often claim that we live in a “culture of death.” But most of us don’t believe it. Not really. We may use the phrase as a rhetorical tool, but deep in our hearts we think that our family, friends, and neighbors wouldn’t knowingly kill another human being.
We convince ourselves that they simply don’t realize what they’re doing. If only they could see—and honestly look at—the ultrasound pictures of an unborn child. If only we could convince them that what they consider a “clump of cells” is a person. If only they knew it was a human life they were destroying. If they only knew, they wouldn’t—they couldn’t—continue to support abortion.
But they do know. And the abortions continue. Not because we live in a culture of death but because we live in a culture of me.

Taking note of a doctor who naively started her career as a proponent of assisted suicide, but who changed her mind after working with actual disabled people, and watching them go through valleys and come out the other side.
