I am a Catholic Christian. I believe in Almighty God, Jesus Christ and most of the Bible.
There are many things about my faith that I do not understand, including the infinity of God and time, why God allows children to suffer and how humans can have free will while God knows exactly what they will do and where they will end up.
But I find these easier to accept than the alternative: that everything came from nothing in a natural world where nothing comes from nothing, that all accounts of supernatural events of the past were erroneous and that humans have no ultimate responsibility for their willful decisions.
So when I read in the news that the courts are considering whether the safety of the "abortion pill" was adequately studied, what goes through my mind is that the pill obviously isn't safe for the child being terminated, and that before swallowing it, the mother should consider that when she herself leaves this earth, she may meet this child and realize that her decision denied someone the life God intended and denied herself a child who could have been a very positive part of her life.
