What are some of the things we choose to be in denial over ...things we don't want to accept as true?

Abortion comes to mind.

How many people are in denial ...stating that committing an abortion is not taking a life.

But, the idea is more complex than just a political disagreement.  Why are so many pregnancies considered a problem??

It goes back to much promiscuity in a society ...children out of wedlock.  And the sad dilemma of going it alone, leaves abortion as the prime promotion ...as a simple remedy.  It is promoted as a permanent fix to the current dilemma, when really it is a deceptive temporary solution provided. It creates regret and agony in many who fall for the deception ...and many of those who don't seem to regret, often go to extreme lengths to cover those feelings.  They often become vicious with their accusations, and rally the cause of rights, while so blindly denying the rights of the most defenseless ...that which is within them.  And by getting rid of what's within them, they are changing much more within them that they don't realize.

I must note here, that I know many women who've had abortions ...who have Jesus within them, and they have replaced the regret with accepting His forgiveness.  And that is the only way to fill those empty spaces.
