The Snake Speaks

The Snake came slithering into N.D.U. seeking only "open hearts, open minds, fair-minded words... common ground". The Snake wanted Adam and Eve to listen.

"No, you shall not die; for God knows that when you eat of it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." Genesis 3:4-5

John Jenkins, president of N.D.U., said "...President Obama is not someone who stops talking to those who differ with him". So, for the sake of the appearance of good, Jenkins and the graduates of N.D.U. listened to the Snake. When a protester shouted "Stop killing our children!", the crowd responded "Yes we can!"

"Barabbas!"

Obama was right in declaring that there are "irreconcilable differences" between abortionists and those who hold human life as sacred.

"...the Lord God said... I will put enmity betwen you and the woman, between your seed and her seed..." Genesis 3:14-15

We must respond to the idea of compromise with evil with hate. But hate the sin, love the sinner. We must continue an undespairing witness to the sacred origin of human life. We must increase our pleas to our Blessed Mother for help. Our Lady will crush the head of the snake under her heel.
