PROP 1: Supporters disregard truth

| September 30, 2026 1:00 AM

The idea that anyone could vote for Prop 1 under the guise of “women’s healthcare” shows a complete disregard for truth and science. Everyone knows that a baby in the womb has separate DNA from his/her mother from the moment of conception. A child shouldn’t be murdered because of the sin of someone else — whether it’s the mother & father, doctor or, in very rare cases, the rapist.

Each child bears the image of God and was created by Him for His glory. “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb”, said David in Psalm 139:13. When Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, John the Baptist leaped in his mother’s womb (Luke 1:41). That wasn’t a “clump of cells” leaping; it was a human being created in God’s image.
