It is hard to read this and just scroll past as a parent. I am not here to judge them, far from it, but I want to raise a point I haven’t seen raised.
Scripture has never identified biological variance as humanity’s core problem. Romans 3:23 does not say “all have chromosomal anomalies.”
The deficit the Bible diagnoses across every human being is moral, volitional, and relational. A sundering of the image-bearer from its Creator. That is what required redemption and that is what cost God something.
By that exact metric, Jesse and Ashley
are the defective ones in the room. They are fallen, morally accountable, and spiritually broken adults who require the blood of a covenant to stand before God. The child, not yet at the age of accountability, had not entered that reckoning. David said of his dead infant: “I shall go to him, but he will not return to me.” He was not despairing, but was locating the child somewhere.
The one they considered too broken to live may have been more secure before God than either of them.
It is unfathomable to me that God looked at a spiritually deformed, rebellious, broken humanity and rather than calculate the burden, project the dependency, or conclude the defect was too great, he entered the limitation himself. He took on flesh, was born in a manger, learned to walk, got tired and even wept. The logic of the Incarnation runs in the exact opposite direction from the logic of that termination.
God’s response to the broken was to become vulnerable alongside it.
The final indictment is that Jesse and Ashley exist only because God operates by a completely different currency than the one they applied to their son. The mercy that sustains two spiritually broken adults was not extended to a child whose only defect was an extra chromosome rather than a fallen will.
Down Syndrome is not currency before God, sin is. And on that ledger, the child was significantly richer than his parents.
The NAACP’s call to boycott Southern sports is so misguided.
Does the NAACP want fewer Black athletes getting noticed by scouts? Does it want concession workers and stadium staff out of a job?

We have the technology to watch babies move around in their mother’s womb, we know they respond to pain, we know they recognize their mother’s voice.
If you are still denying the humanity of preborn children, you are willfully ignorant.
Women’s voices matter: Pass the SAVE America Act 🗳️
"At night, you lock your door because you want to prevent someone unauthorized from coming in. We need the provisions in the SAVE America Act to lock the door to our elections."

As a former Marylander, I couldn’t be more disappointed. The incompetence here is shocking.
Election administration MUST be held to a higher standard. This error lays the groundwork for double voting, mass confusion for voters, & disenfranchisement.
Marylanders deserve better.
🚨ACCESS GRANTED🚨
🏛️The Fulton County Superior Court just granted an emergency TRO against Secretary Raffensperger, clarifying that poll watchers and the State Election Board observers have the right to observe election administration operations, INCLUDING at the central reporting location.
🚫Secretary Raffensperger will no longer be permitted to exclude or restrict observers as previously intended.
🚨HUGE WIN for Georgia elections!!
@A1Policy@a1states
Sunlight matters. ☀️
When election processes are transparent and accountable, voter confidence grows stronger. Appreciate leaders continuing to advocate for openness and public trust in Georgia’s elections.
Good news—constitutionality still matters.
Virginians deserve more than an unconstitutional election.

Which abortion is your favorite? The one where the unborn baby's body is crush and sucked out with a hose or the one where the baby is cut apart with a knife?
Please enlighten us.
There is only one side of the political aisle that continues to target the other for assassination and justifies it using the same deranged smears that we hear on a daily basis from one political party.
The left wants to talk about "both sides" because it's easier than coming to terms with how prone to violence their voter base has become.
Brandon Gill described what abortion actually does:
Abortion ends a life poisoning by dismembering a tiny baby, limb by limb.
The room went silent.

Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.
People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate.
A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him.
Enough is enough. It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.
