Sassy writing and a Princess Bride reference within the first ten lines. I like it.
Furthermore, anytime someone living within the shadow of the CN Tower expresses a pro-life point of view, an angel gets his wings–so I feel it’s important to highlight these miraculous moments.
I don’t believe in coincidences. If you or someone known to you is on the horns of a dilemma with an unexpected pregnancy and planning to terminate it, have the child and I’ll find a way to raise it for you.This isn’t a first-come, one-off proposition. I’ll do it for as many as ask. If you’re wondering how such an undertaking could be accomplished, as the Irish philosopher Paul Hewson put it, “The God I believe in isn’t short of cash, mister.”I’m not doing it because I think your kid is the Messiah. In fact, if the child grows up with much exposure to me, chances are he’ll be a world-class jerk. Nevertheless, he has a right to live.Now, this is a sincere offer, but let’s please not make it the focal point of this prose. What I’m saying is that if those of us who are pro-life mean what we say, we must be part of the solution beyond stating what the law should be or what other people should do.
I believe Mr. Caldwell is perfectly serious with his offer, btw. Therefore, I would like to broadcast it further here. If you need help, please get in touch. That said, I am filled with sadness knowing how many expressions of total and complete generosity are met with no–because people believe they cannot accept help, or that it isn’t real, or they just can’t. I often wonder if someone out there needs to model vulnerability–a simple expression that no one has it all together all the time. We are all fond of the idea, however false it is, that we are self-sufficient and we don’t ever need help. (Is this why Trump wins support?) Then, come a crisis, we actually prefer to go it alone, thinking we are very strong for doing so.

Hmm, I’ve had my doubts about The Rebel, but that guy’s a fun read …
