I'd like to smother HER with a pillow...

...or at least her horrid and disgusting ideas.  Virginia Ironside is a British journalist who recently said that if she had a deeply suffering child, she would want to put a pillow over its face. Are you kidding me? I'm suffering just listening to hear her say that.  Perhaps she'd like to put a pillow over my face?  Check out her version of what a loving mother is here on Hot Air. Abortion, apparently, is sometimes the loving thing to do.

You can't spell the word 'smother' without 'mother!'

On the feast of St. Faustina, let's counter the evil of Virginia Ironside's so called loving thing to do with this prayer from the saint:

O My God,
When I look into the future, I am frightened,
But why plunge into the future?
Only the present moment is precious to me,
As the future may never enter my soul at all.

It is no longer in my power to change, correct or add to the past;
For neither sages nor prophets could do that.
And so what the past has embraced I must entrust to God.

O present moment, you belong to me, whole and entire.
I desire to use you as best I can.
And although I am weak and small,
You grant me the grace of Your omnipotence.

And so, trusting in Your mercy,
I walk through life like a little child,
Offering You each day this heart
Burning with love for Your greater Glory.

— From her Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul, Notebook 1 (1)

This is so sad! That's why we need to support moms who have a adverse prenatal diagonosis. They are pressured to abort because everyone feels like this idiot. I just got a birth announcement from today from a friend who was told to abort, abort, abort but she held on, stayed strong, and delivered a beautiful preemie girl who is doing really well except for regular preemie stuff. She needed support and it was hard to find. You might want to link to benotafraid.net a beautiful ministry!
