Albert Mohler: The Culture of Death in Massachusetts

August 10, Massachusetts became the 11th state in the union to pass legislation with absolutely no limits on abortion.
Democratic Governor Maura Healey hosted a signing ceremony and a lengthy press conference.
We need to understand what we’re talking about here: There’s a basic worldview collision between the culture of life and the culture of death. In the culture of life, every single human life is respected from the point of fertilization until natural death, making something like abortion not only wrong, but morally unthinkable.
The culture of death is so absolutely enraptured with personal autonomy that it can be used to deny or even take the life of others.
Just days before Governor Healy signed this radical abortion legislation, she signed a Family Welfare Act that included expansions for child welfare in Massachusetts. The governor said then, and I quote, "Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up safe, supported, and set up to succeed." Understand this, she actually means every child outside the womb and no child inside the womb.
This is just haunting.
