Poor Reasoning

The saying “book smart and common sense stupid” applies to the Georgetown University student group, which would invite the president of an organization that engages in the killing of human life for financial gain and is sadly funded by our tax dollars. (CNY, March 17).

Do these college students known anything about the late Dr. Bernard Nathanson, who after performing thousands of abortions, upon seeing a sonogram, came to the realization that it was indeed an unborn human being that was being killed in an abortion? Dr. Nathanson then became a defender of human life and a member of the Roman Catholic Church. 

Do they know the story of Abbey Johnson, who ran a Planned Parenthood facility in Texas? When assisting a doctor in an abortion, she saw the baby fighting for its life. She then quit Planned Parenthood and started an organization called “And Then There Were None,” which takes Planned Parenthood workers out of this organization and helps find them employment in other industries. 

Yes, the Georgetown University student group is “book smart and common sense stupid.” They invite someone who profits from the taking of innocent human life to speak at their university.
