John Calvin on Abortion!
For the fetus, though enclosed in the womb of it’s mother, is already a human being, and it is a monstrous crime to rob it of the life which has not yet begun to enjoy.

His great genius could not console him in time of affliction! However the knowledge of God could! Why? Because God created the science! God created us! If we worship God’s creation it becomes idol worship! It will leave you empty! Science is a good thing as long as it does not become your God! The Theory of Evolution is a false science and the most destructive ideology ever known to man! Hitler followed Darwin and drove his ideology to the destruction of Europe! Most of the political left in American politics are Darwinists! If you take God out of your life you end up with nothing! In a Godless world violence rules the day! Anarchy is King and Hell is popular! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
