Maybe you think there is no impact on society, family and country by aborting so many of our countrymen for an entire generation, but I think the impact is profound and shameful.

Everything in life works around cause and effect. If I left a leaking faucet leak continuously on the second floor of my house, then the effect will eventually be the collapse of my floor or severe wood rot at the very least. Due to the effects of abortion, how many skilled and unskilled laborers, professionals or non-professionals, athletes, musicians, artists, entertainers, public servants, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, parents, grandparents and so forth, have we lost?

I can't even imagine the stench that the rot of abortion in today's society gives off to God. Everyone reading this letter was once 5 weeks old, 12 weeks old, then 20 weeks old and eventually born.

So when you cast your vote, ask yourself if you're willing to stand in line behind the candidate of your choice the day we meet our maker in heaven; because if you can't, then it might be time to line up behind a candidate closer to your moral convictions.

Life starts with God's sanctions and then comes politics, not the other way around.
