The fruit of abortion is nuclear war. —Mother Teresa of Calcutta

I heard this quote at a retreat I attended over the weekend and it suddenly occurred to me - to vote on the issue of abortion is not just voting on a single issue.
Anything that contributes to a culture of death pushes our world closer and closer to violence that cannot be fast forwarded. As life loses its value, as babies and elderly people are seen as "burdens," our lack of respect very quickly extends to the general population.
War is the visible expression of this culture of death that we live in and abortion is the invisible.
