Evolving Prayer Breakfast

Earlier I commented on Obama’s hypocritical statement in February at the National Prayer Breakfast: “There is no God who condones taking the life of an innocent human being. This much we know.”

Today I came across this statement by Mother Teresa from the National Prayer Breakfast in 1995. What a contrast.

I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, bemused it is a war against the child–a direct killing of the innocent child–murder by the mother herself. And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?… By abortion, the mother does not learn to love, but kills even her own child to solve her problems. And by abortion, the father is told that he does not have to take any responsibility at all for the child he has brought into the world. The father is likely to put other women into the same trouble. So abortion just leads to more abortion. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching the people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion.
