Sometimes Satan Leaves a Fingerprint

     Satan is sometimes subtle in his workings in the world--a little disinformation here, a whisper there. He is especially subtle when working to tear apart, or render ineffective, Christians and churches. A twist of scripture, his old standby since Eden, a wave of wokeness to wash away Biblical standards. In places where there are fewer Christians to influence their culture, Satan works more or less overtly, though by many different names. So I think it is both interesting and ironic that abortion rights supporters use the word "enshrine" to describe their efforts to counteract legislation of states like Montana that have narrower abortion requirements. Why not say guarantee? Secure? Why enshrine? Look at the following definitions.

shrine

noun as in tribute to a god, idol, or spirit

enshrine

verb (used with object)

 en·shrined, en·shrin·ing.

 

1. to enclose in or as in a shrine

2. to cherish as sacred

 

   That explains a lot. Because some supporters seem to think of abortion as a sacred right/rite that needs to be protected for the posterity of those who are not aborted, therefore, it does not matter if the baby feels pain or could live outside the womb. It does not matter if the abortionist is a physician or a witch doctor. For them this is a religious issue, but who are they worshiping at abortion's altar? Who exactly is in the shrine? My idol speculation tells me that for this legislation, Satan has shown his sense of humor in the very wording of the abortion advocates--enshrine. But it is also his seal of approval. This particular piece of Planned Parenthood propaganda, is so in tune with the spirit of Satan's, he left his fingerprint.
