Nazi Germany killed over 6 million Jews, and millions more from other ethnic groups and those they deemed were not fit for society. We justly condemn the barbarism.
The Soviet Union wiped out–by conservative estimates–12-15 million of its own citizens, in the gulag (though the total may be as many as 20-25 million). Millions more, from other countries, were slaughtered in its drive for power. We rightly denounce the cruelty.
Mao Tse Tung butchered millions of Chinese in his drive for total control of China as a Communist country. We correctly condemn the butchery.
Pol Pot wiped out 2 million Cambodians in the killing fields. Castro…Che Guevara…Nicolae Ceausescu…all these Communists have blood on their hands, and are rightly denounced.
Yet, in the United States–a so-called “Christian nation”–since 1973, over 61 million innocent lives have been killed by abortion!!!!!
There is coming a day when the God of heaven and earth will judge the world in righteousness, and will hold accountable those who have the blood of the innocents on their hands.
