“We’re having a baby, my baby and me,” Ricky Ricardo sang to his wife, Lucy. That was over 60 years ago and Lucy (in I Love Lucy) was having a baby, as was I. We both knew there was a baby growing inside of us, however small.
Mary, in Bethlehem, was “with child.” When she visited her cousin Elizabeth, Elizabeth said, “the child in my womb leapt for joy.” Until this past generation, women were pregnant with babies. No one but medics used the term fetus until the spinsters on the left decided they wanted to kill it and it sounds terrible to kill a baby. Fetus in Latin simply means “offspring” but they won’t use that, either. Who would kill their own “offspring?” As with the word “marriage” they have deliberately set about morphing the language to suit their agenda.
In the following undercover video we have a Planned Parenthood abortionist telling a pregnant woman that she doesn’t have a baby inside of her.
So, it’s not a baby until it’s born? What about the day before it’s born? Is it a baby then? They might agree it is. A month before it’s due date? Is it cute, viable — and killable?
Shades of George Orwell’s 1984 and Newspeak! Among the truths of Newspeak were:
WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
We can now add to that:
A FETUS IS NOT A BABY
~~~
Can a mother forget her baby, Or a woman the child within her womb?
Yet even if these forget, Yes, even if these forget,
I will never forget my own.
–Song – Isaiah 49
