Taking a stand against the tide of popular opinion, we delve into the concept of a 'culture of death' and advocate for an understanding of this world through Saint John Paul II's teachings.

We robustly dissect the contentious Ohio amendment language for Ohio Issue 1, and passionately urge you to vote against it, exposing its radical nature.

To navigate these murky waters, we recommend the book 'Pro-Life Answers to Pro-Choice Arguments' by Randy Alcorn - a beacon of clarity and truth.

As the episode culminates, we implore Ohioans to VOTE NO on Ohio Issue 1 - a move that promises justice for innocent lives and offers hope to those seeking alternatives to abortion.

Key Points from the Episode:

Shifting gears, we tackle the role of men in the urgent issue of abortion.
Harnessing the power of storytelling, we explore the potential of negative wisdom to protect and support our women and children.
Drawing stark parallels between the Children's Memorial at Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial and the staggering number of abortions in America, we confront the hard facts.
Drawing inspiration from William Wilberforce's unwavering stand for justice and the abolition of slavery, we explore how we can be a voice for those unable to speak for themselves.

WEBVTT

00:00:07.608 --> 00:00:20.806
Welcome to the Theory to Action podcast, where we examine the timeless treasures of wisdom from the great books in less time, to help you take action immediately and ultimately to create and lead a flourishing life.

00:00:20.806 --> 00:00:24.847
Now here's your host, david Kaiser.

00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:29.687
Hello, I am David and welcome back to another Mojo Minute.

00:00:29.687 --> 00:00:38.921
Today's episode could be graphic, so I urge you to not listen to this podcast with your children.

00:00:38.921 --> 00:00:51.996
Today's episode will be controversial because we have to talk about difficult things once in a while and have an honest conversation about our world and where it is going.

00:00:51.996 --> 00:01:16.031
If we don't have honest, heart-to-heart conversations, we will be, in fact, living in a fantasy land, and probably the reason our culture and our world is the way it is today is because we have been living in a fantasy land for the last 25, to 35, or 40 years.

00:01:16.031 --> 00:01:21.227
Everyone wants to stop talking about anything important.

00:01:21.227 --> 00:01:27.691
Everyone wants to shut down the conversation between adults even before it starts.

00:01:27.691 --> 00:01:31.987
It's kind of like that phrase politics, religion and her.

00:01:31.987 --> 00:01:35.805
Actually, isn't that an old country song?

00:01:35.805 --> 00:01:39.909
Let's talk about politics, religion and her.

00:01:39.909 --> 00:01:40.983
I will not sing.

00:01:40.983 --> 00:01:48.447
I will not cause you to turn off this podcast right away, but that was a country song, was it?

00:01:48.447 --> 00:01:50.225
Who was that guy that sang that?

00:01:50.225 --> 00:01:53.483
Oh, yes, the old Sammy Kershaw.

00:01:53.483 --> 00:02:03.084
After a good Google search of that, in case you don't know that song, here are some lyrics from the song let's talk about baseball.

00:02:03.084 --> 00:02:05.945
Let's talk a little small talk.

00:02:05.945 --> 00:02:08.906
There's got to be a good joke that you've heard.

00:02:08.906 --> 00:02:20.890
Let's talk about NASCAR, old Hollywood movie stars, let's talk about anything in this world, but politics, religion and her.

00:02:20.890 --> 00:02:25.788
He goes on in a fantastic song.

00:02:25.788 --> 00:02:26.521
Love the song.

00:02:26.521 --> 00:02:33.066
Politics can start a fight, religion's hard to know who's right.

00:02:33.066 --> 00:02:35.925
And one more topic I won't touch.

00:02:35.925 --> 00:02:39.366
Well, that one is her and it hurts too much.

00:02:39.366 --> 00:03:05.467
So that is a fantastic song, but that doesn't help us in society when we can't or won't or don't talk about the important things, when we are not adults, when we don't get down to the truth on the big topics of our day, the big issues confronting us as a society.

00:03:06.682 --> 00:03:22.711
In our last episode we talked about the great gift of the theology, the body brought to us by John Paul, saint John Paul II, and how it's the very antidote we need for our hyper sexualized world.

00:03:22.711 --> 00:03:32.948
But embedded in there and I brought it up that I wanted to talk to our own side in that podcast episode was my side.

00:03:32.948 --> 00:03:47.143
I wanted to talk to my side, the pro-life side and, more importantly, in the case of killing a number one child, the side defending the life of the child and the life of the mother.

00:03:47.143 --> 00:04:02.268
I implored that side for a life-side, to dig deeper into this teaching because it paints a more holistic, better vision of the world than the very dark horizon that we are looking out upon now.

00:04:02.268 --> 00:04:15.526
We have been living in a culture of death for the better part of fifty years in the West and our eyes are now too used to seeing the darkness as normal, the normal way the world should look.

00:04:15.526 --> 00:04:17.228
That's not true.

00:04:17.228 --> 00:04:32.954
It's as if you were born in Ohio and because it's cloudy here ninety-nine percent of the time, you would think the rest of the world must be cloudy ninety-nine percent of the time because the sun barely comes out in Ohio.

00:04:32.954 --> 00:04:36.509
But for the rest of the world that's not true.

00:04:36.509 --> 00:04:49.855
And we've seen the ability to see the sun if we travel to a different location, perhaps sunny South Florida, where the sun shines ninety-five percent of the time.

00:04:49.855 --> 00:04:53.211
Just a much different world there, isn't it.

00:04:53.211 --> 00:05:01.732
But that's how our culture has been for the last forty-year-plus years One gray cloud of darkness.

00:05:03.564 --> 00:05:12.716
We're to make a better analogy, a better analogy that Christopher West, our previous author from the last podcast, uses all the time in his talks.

00:05:12.716 --> 00:05:15.692
He's talks about sexuality in our world these days.

00:05:15.692 --> 00:05:26.913
He says it's as if we're driving around with four flat tires, just driving around with four complete flat tires.

00:05:26.913 --> 00:05:28.970
And everyone is doing this.

00:05:28.970 --> 00:05:38.333
Every car you see has four complete flat tires and we all just assume that's the way it's supposed to be.

00:05:38.333 --> 00:05:48.586
But what did our Lord reply to the group asking him about divorce, say Matthew nineteen-eight tells us.

00:05:48.586 --> 00:05:58.172
He said to them it was because you were so hard-hearted that Moses allowed you to divorce your wives.

00:05:58.172 --> 00:06:02.934
But from the beginning it was not so.

00:06:02.934 --> 00:06:06.572
Again, that's Matthew nineteen-eight.

00:06:06.572 --> 00:06:12.911
Did you hear the nugget of wisdom, actually the nugget of divine wisdom?

00:06:12.911 --> 00:06:16.711
From the beginning it was not so.

00:06:16.711 --> 00:06:23.153
That means in the beginning we were not driving around with four flat tires.

00:06:23.153 --> 00:06:27.471
And how do we understand what the beginning was like?

00:06:27.471 --> 00:06:31.533
And then to understand how far we have fallen?

00:06:31.533 --> 00:06:35.949
Well, we need to take that masterclass of theology of the body.

00:06:35.949 --> 00:06:39.011
We have much work to do on that front.

00:06:40.245 --> 00:06:46.867
But the most immediate front we have to talk about and discuss is the radical Ohio proposed amendment language.

00:06:46.867 --> 00:07:00.334
Just on the legal language itself, on issue one, it is written so vague that it has made that proposed amendment radical by its very nature.

00:07:00.334 --> 00:07:03.954
You can actually check out the video at see the language dot com.

00:07:03.954 --> 00:07:05.189
I'll put a note.

00:07:05.189 --> 00:07:07.411
I'll put a link in the show notes for that.

00:07:07.411 --> 00:07:08.487
It's very powerful.

00:07:08.487 --> 00:07:21.456
And there's four things that equally make this radical and an over the top type of amendment, and I'll stick a link in the show notes to that PDF as well.

00:07:21.456 --> 00:07:26.428
It goes into each goes in the actual language and a lot the language is radical.

00:07:26.428 --> 00:07:38.557
So to my fellow Ohioans, I appeal to you to vote against Ohio issue one because of the radical nature of the proposed amendment language.

00:07:40.430 --> 00:08:01.791
But more importantly, I want to transition to a great book, a great book that gives us the straight answers on the difficult questions, and one of those difficult questions in this Ohio issue one is abortion, and the title of the book is Pro-Life Answers to Pro-Choice Arguments by Randy Alcorn Fantastic books.

00:08:01.791 --> 00:08:09.473
It gives us so much clarity and truth beyond the 30-second sound bites that happen in our major media today.

00:08:09.473 --> 00:08:16.420
I want to share and echo some final appeals from Randy to certain segments of our society.

00:08:16.420 --> 00:08:29.802
Alcorn has many appeals at the end of the book, but most importantly, his love for women who are considering abortion, to everyone else involved in the decision-making process.

00:08:29.802 --> 00:08:37.985
These appeals are quite powerful, which is why I wanted to share these with you today.

00:08:37.985 --> 00:08:45.320
So we're going to go through two appeals actually two appeals and a great analogy from history.

00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:50.678
He's actually made way more than two appeals, but we only have time to cover two.

00:08:50.678 --> 00:08:52.383
He actually I think has 10 or 11.

00:08:52.383 --> 00:08:57.240
But the first appeal is to women directly considering abortion.

00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:03.379
Let's go to the book, be honest with yourself.

00:09:03.379 --> 00:09:15.114
Don't buy the pro-choice rhetoric that would try to make you feel heroic by exercising your precious right to kill an innocent child.

00:09:15.114 --> 00:09:23.240
Naomi Wolf responds to a fellow feminist claim that women get abortions in order to be better mothers.

00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:27.160
Wolf says this of her own chemical abortion quote.

00:09:28.331 --> 00:09:35.599
If what was going on in my mind had been mostly about the well-being of the possible baby, that pill would have never been swallowed.

00:09:35.599 --> 00:09:50.037
For that potential baby brought to term would have had two sets of loving middle-income grandparents, an adult mother with an education and even, as I discover later, the beginning of diaper money.

00:09:50.037 --> 00:09:57.562
For its first two years of life she had the graduate fellowship I was on for bed.

00:09:57.562 --> 00:10:09.601
The graduate fellowship I was on for bad marriage, but in frozen time before women, where its beneficiary said nothing about an unwed motherhood.

00:10:09.601 --> 00:10:14.715
So she would have had the money Because of the baby's skin color.

00:10:14.715 --> 00:10:21.719
Even if I chose not to rear the child, a roster of eager adoptive parents awaited him or her.

00:10:21.719 --> 00:10:33.129
If I had been thinking only, or even primarily, about the baby's life, I would have had to decide to bring the pregnancy had there been one to term.

00:10:34.893 --> 00:10:40.842
No, there were two columns in my mind me and baby, and the first one out.

00:10:40.842 --> 00:10:44.875
And what was in?

00:10:44.875 --> 00:10:53.681
It looks something like this unwelcome to intensity in the relationship with the father, desire to continue to develop as a person before real parenthood.

00:10:53.681 --> 00:11:06.585
And I wish to encounter my eventual life partner without the off-putting incombrance of a child, resistance to curtailing the nature of the time remaining to me in Europe.

00:11:06.585 --> 00:11:15.904
And essentially this column came down to I had not done, I am not done, being responsive only to myself.

00:11:15.904 --> 00:11:24.110
Yet At even the possibility that the cosmos was calling my name, I cowered and stepped aside.

00:11:25.351 --> 00:11:33.804
I was not so unlike those young louts who fathered children and run from the specter of responsibility.

00:11:33.804 --> 00:11:38.129
Don't succumb to the pressure to kill your baby.

00:11:38.129 --> 00:11:48.865
The testimony of one woman who gave into that that pressure echoes the feelings of hundreds of thousands of women.

00:11:48.865 --> 00:11:50.047
End of quote.

00:11:50.047 --> 00:12:01.399
Now, speaking of the young louts who fathered children and then run from their specter of responsibility, we're talking about men here.

00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:04.197
We will talk to them.

00:12:04.197 --> 00:12:07.899
Next we will have some strong language for them.

00:12:07.899 --> 00:12:27.803
But going back to the book, she goes on to say or actually, randy Alcorn, the author, goes on to say every pregnant woman has an inner voice telling her not to abort her child and that she will regret this decision the rest of her life.

00:12:27.803 --> 00:12:34.634
Don't let the loud voices of society drown out this small voice.

00:12:34.634 --> 00:12:35.739
Listen to it.

00:12:35.739 --> 00:12:37.778
It's your conscience.

00:12:37.778 --> 00:12:39.783
It's telling you the truth.

00:12:42.256 --> 00:12:44.023
There are people who will gladly help you.

00:12:44.023 --> 00:12:50.988
You can look up abortion alternatives in the Ella pages and or online and call for help.

00:12:50.988 --> 00:13:04.721
You can go to abortionalternativescom for a listing of people to call or call one of the toll-free hotlines for women in crisis pregnancies under the first listing in appendix K.

00:13:04.721 --> 00:13:09.044
I'll put a link in the show notes for the Ohio version of that.

00:13:09.044 --> 00:13:22.109
Instead of finding people who will help kill your baby for a fee, you will find many people who will understand, not judge, and help you for free.

00:13:22.109 --> 00:13:35.082
If you don't know how to find help in your area, contact our organization listed on this page I will put a link in the show notes for the Ohio version again and we will gladly assist you at no cost.

00:13:35.082 --> 00:13:40.225
We will help both you and your baby, anyway, we can.

00:13:40.225 --> 00:13:49.000
So again, I'll put a link in the show notes for all those places that will help you Crisis pregnancy centers.

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:51.326
There's people there that completely understand.

00:13:51.326 --> 00:14:03.326
Often they are people that have actually, sometimes have unfortunately, had abortions, so they know the amount of suffering that you could potentially go through.

00:14:03.326 --> 00:14:10.654
So they're non-judgmental, they're very approachable, very welcoming and they want to help.

00:14:10.654 --> 00:14:14.325
They want to stop this from happening.

00:14:14.325 --> 00:14:23.225
Most importantly, most importantly here, no matter what you do, please get a sonogram or an ultrasound before anything else happens.

00:14:23.225 --> 00:14:33.903
They are free, they don't take long, but they provide you with the truth of the matter on your own child, and that's extremely important to both you and the child.

00:14:35.256 --> 00:14:42.582
Now our last appeal is to men, because this is the one, this is the one that breaks my heart the most.

00:14:42.582 --> 00:14:48.144
It just breaks my heart deeply.

00:14:48.144 --> 00:14:49.287
Let's go to the book.

00:14:49.287 --> 00:14:57.528
The history of abortion in America should bring more shame to men than anyone.

00:14:57.528 --> 00:15:00.764
No pregnancy happens without a man.

00:15:00.764 --> 00:15:06.826
Men should take the responsibility for their own purity and to protect that of a woman.

00:15:06.826 --> 00:15:21.443
When they fail to do this, they should be the first to accept full responsibility for the consequences of their actions, including the conception of a child, as George Gilder argues, in men and marriage.

00:15:21.443 --> 00:15:30.566
When men exercise deep loyalties to women and children, when we take responsibility to protect and defend them, we are at our best.

00:15:30.566 --> 00:15:42.662
Let me repeat that when we men take responsibility to protect and defend them, the women and the children, we are at our best.

00:15:42.662 --> 00:15:48.307
When we violate these loyalties, we are at our worst.

00:15:48.307 --> 00:15:55.168
We become abusers on the one hand and passive cowards on the other.

00:15:55.168 --> 00:16:01.845
We place ourselves under the rightful scorn of women and under the judgment of God.

00:16:06.416 --> 00:16:12.988
When I spoke on this subject at my church, of man in his 60s told me of a girl he got pregnant 39 years ago.

00:16:12.988 --> 00:16:18.186
She gave him the choice of what to do and he chose an abortion.

00:16:18.186 --> 00:16:20.741
He said it haunted him since.

00:16:20.741 --> 00:16:30.885
He thinks about the woman he failed and the son or the daughter that he lost and he wonders about the grandchildren he now could be holding.

00:16:30.885 --> 00:16:41.803
He said to me tell people about the consequences, warn our young men, tell them that God will hold them accountable for what they do with their children.

00:16:41.803 --> 00:16:50.163
And then he broke down in tears and said I don't want our young men to do what I did 39 years ago.

00:16:50.163 --> 00:16:55.520
What a powerful story.

00:16:57.327 --> 00:16:58.712
And did you get that negative wisdom?

00:16:58.712 --> 00:17:10.497
I'll repeat it again we are at our best as men and men listen to me we are at our best when we protect and defend our women and our children.

00:17:10.497 --> 00:17:13.794
That starts by taking responsibility for them.

00:17:13.794 --> 00:17:21.648
What a great negative wisdom that it doesn't have to be this way.

00:17:21.648 --> 00:17:27.335
Our corn makes the very powerful statement in this book, and it's very, very true.

00:17:28.176 --> 00:17:28.999
Let's go back to the book.

00:17:28.999 --> 00:17:34.932
Abortion isn't a women's issue, it's a human issue.

00:17:34.932 --> 00:17:38.298
It affects our devastating to women and men alike.

00:17:38.298 --> 00:17:52.098
But it's high time for men to take personal responsibility, to stand up for women and children and Exercise the kind of leadership God expects of us Men.

00:17:52.098 --> 00:17:56.512
We have to stand up and take responsibility for our children.

00:17:56.512 --> 00:17:58.377
Period, full stop.

00:17:58.377 --> 00:18:03.876
Our culture is the way it is because we are being led by weak men.

00:18:03.876 --> 00:18:14.464
We have been led by weak men for the last 25 Correction, the last 20 years, men who have no moral bone in their body.

00:18:14.464 --> 00:18:21.318
But only us men can change this and change our culture.

00:18:21.318 --> 00:18:26.176
And it starts by protecting and standing up for our women and our children.

00:18:26.176 --> 00:18:32.470
And our final, concluding appeal Comes to us from history.

00:18:32.470 --> 00:18:35.309
Let's go back to the book.

00:18:38.709 --> 00:18:47.271
When my wife and I visited Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem, we were most deeply touched by the Children's Memorial.

00:18:47.271 --> 00:18:59.390
It has 1500 candles with mirrors designed to reflect each candle a thousand times, representing the 1.5 million children Killed in the Holocaust.

00:18:59.390 --> 00:19:05.511
We stood in the darkness hearing the names of individual children read one by one.

00:19:05.511 --> 00:19:15.458
I was struck by the number because at the time it was the same number killed by abortion in America each of the previous few years.

00:19:15.458 --> 00:19:18.294
This book was written in 2001.

00:19:18.294 --> 00:19:25.250
The fact that most of these children haven't been given names Doesn't diminish their worth.

00:19:25.250 --> 00:19:33.872
I've stood at memorials for the unborn where parents had given names to the children and written them expressions of love and grief.

00:19:33.872 --> 00:19:47.376
If we could only hear the names of each of these children whispered to us in the darkness, perhaps we would wake up Now.

00:19:47.416 --> 00:19:55.670
Later on he goes into the story of the British parliamentarian William Wilberforce.

00:19:55.670 --> 00:19:58.082
Let's go back to the book.

00:19:58.082 --> 00:20:16.523
Shortly after his conversion to Christ in 1784, the British parliamentarian William Wilberforce began his battle for the black man's freedom, relentlessly, year after year, in the face of apathy, scorn and all the opposition of the slave industry could offer.

00:20:16.523 --> 00:20:23.826
This one man reintroduced to parliament the motion for the abolition of slavery.

00:20:23.826 --> 00:20:38.204
Rejected again and again, Wilberforce was encouraged by only a few, among them John Wesley and John Newton, former slave ship captain and writer of the song Amazing Grace.

00:20:38.204 --> 00:21:05.833
Stating that we are all guilty for tolerating the evil of slavery, william Wilberforce said never, never will we detest till we extinguish every trace of this bloody traffic of which our posterity, looking back to the history of those enlightened times, will scarce believe that it has been suffered to exist so long.

00:21:05.833 --> 00:21:18.217
A disgrace and a dishonor to this country Because of his colleagues often refused to pay attention to what he said about the realities of slavery.

00:21:18.217 --> 00:21:28.584
Wilberforce would pull heavy chains from under his chair in parliament and drape them over himself to symbolize the inhumanity of slavery.

00:21:28.584 --> 00:21:38.941
His fellow parliamentarians who were pro-choice about slavery would roll their eyes, mock him and call him a fool.

00:21:38.941 --> 00:21:56.625
But it is Wilberforce, not they, who is remembered by God and men as the one who stood for justice and mercy Year after year, while both non-Christians and Christians denied and ignored the reality.

00:21:56.625 --> 00:22:03.586
Wilberforce suffered sleepless nights plagued by dreams of the suffering black men.

00:22:03.586 --> 00:22:12.426
Only in 1807, against incredible odds, wilberforce saw the slave trade finally outlawed.

00:22:12.426 --> 00:22:22.108
Even then, he had to fight another 18 years for the emancipation of the existing slaves.

00:22:22.108 --> 00:22:37.236
Wilberforce died in 1833, three days after the bill for the abolition of slavery passed its second reading in the House of Commons, bringing slavery and England to its final end.

00:22:41.575 --> 00:22:44.583
Now, if you don't know the story of Wilberforce, you should.

00:22:44.583 --> 00:22:46.577
He is a great man.

00:22:46.577 --> 00:22:48.137
He needs to be studied.

00:22:48.137 --> 00:22:57.246
So for 18 more years he had to fight to see the emancipation of the existing slaves.

00:22:57.246 --> 00:23:05.357
Do you think God used his life to bring moral clarity to that issue, the issue of slavery?

00:23:05.357 --> 00:23:10.584
He died just three days after England abolished slavery.

00:23:10.584 --> 00:23:15.382
There are no coincidences in God's plan.

00:23:17.535 --> 00:23:22.826
Yet today we see clearly that slavery was and is morally reprehensible.

00:23:22.826 --> 00:23:23.917
There is no doubt.

00:23:23.917 --> 00:23:29.617
All of Western society agrees with this, by default.

00:23:29.617 --> 00:23:30.580
We agree with this.

00:23:30.580 --> 00:23:34.364
There's no thought to anything else.

00:23:34.364 --> 00:23:37.561
Just look at the reaction to the movie the Sound of Freedom.

00:23:37.561 --> 00:23:42.502
All about human trafficking, essentially human slavery, that is still going on today.

00:23:42.502 --> 00:23:46.742
In our heart of hearts, we as a society know right from wrong.

00:23:46.742 --> 00:23:51.545
We are often not confused, even though we claim to be confused.

00:23:51.545 --> 00:23:54.602
There's all kind of nuances in abortion.

00:23:54.602 --> 00:23:57.539
Is the fetus really a person?

00:23:57.539 --> 00:23:59.376
Well, of course it is.

00:24:02.055 --> 00:24:05.721
One final appeal from Randy, and I would echo this same appeal.

00:24:07.124 --> 00:24:20.284
Going back to the book, not all of us are Wilbur forces, but had England been filled with people of conviction who would have done what they could for the suffering slaves.

00:24:21.347 --> 00:24:26.442
Wilbur forces job would have been much easier and untold suffering could have been prevented.

00:24:26.442 --> 00:24:42.423
Isn't it time for all of those who know the truth about abortion to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves the babies and not only to speak up but to show a better way, a way of love.

00:24:42.423 --> 00:24:59.217
May we reach out with truth and compassion to the mothers feeling the pressure to abort and may we show a morally disintegrating society the better way of mercy and justice for the innocent children.

00:24:59.217 --> 00:25:06.743
Let us be a people of conviction in the state of Ohio.

00:25:06.743 --> 00:25:16.247
A vote no is on issue one is to be just that people of conviction.

00:25:16.247 --> 00:25:18.957
Unlike England.

00:25:18.957 --> 00:25:30.676
Let us Ohio and stop the suffering and provide a better pathway for those alternatives to abortion, while providing that mercy and justice for those innocent children we just talked about.

00:25:30.676 --> 00:25:40.223
Please vote no on issue one in the state of Ohio and, as always, keep fighting a good fight.

00:25:46.575 --> 00:25:47.558
