Abortion Funder, The Lilith Fund, Masquerades as Hero During #Harvey Relief

Because of Hurricane Harvey, we’ve seen a lot of remarkable things in the past week. The flooding in Houston reached remarkable proportions. Remarkable numbers of victims were displaced. Someone who looks remarkably like a citizen of the Capitol of Panem criticized the first lady’s footwear.

But the most remarkable thing we’ve seen so far? Undoubtedly, it’s been the countless heroes helping Harvey victims. Via news and social media, we’ve seen stories of heroes doing amazing things, like driving jet-skis into foyers to rescue flood victims, or carrying very confused cats to safety.

The Lilith Fund, an organization that provides funds to women seeking abortion in Texas, wants to be heroic and help Harvey victims too.

However, as you can imagine, their idea of helping hurricane victims is pretty macabre:

You can take a moment to vomit. I’ll wait.

In the Twitter post above, NNAF Abortion Funds notifies hurricane victims- and potential donors- about the Lilith Fund’s emergency abortion fund.

Wait. The tweet is about raising emergency funds. Funds for “folks,” no less. The message sounds sort of down-home and compassionate. Right?

Sure, and I’ll tell you why. The unborn babies in the situation the tweet addresses are invisible. As per most pro-choice rhetoric, the fetuses’ existence is covered over with euphemism or simply verbally omitted. It’s easy to make a tweet sound compassionate if you leave out the fact that your attempt at charity involves destroying human life.

No one can dispute that abortion involves the destruction of human life; numerous avenues of science demonstrate that fetal life is human life. This argument is old hat for pro-lifers, but it’s easily ignored for pro-choicers who prioritize the prerogatives of pregnant women and shout down pro-life voices when they get too loud and haunting.

But pro-choicers know deep down that abortion is wrong. They wouldn’t try so hard to justify it otherwise.

It is pretty clear, in the Lilith Fund’s 15 year anniversary Youtube video, that the Lilith Fund is convinced its services are heroic. A spokeswoman uses words like “courage,” “love,” and “strength” when discussing the synergy that drives the work the Lilith Fund does.

The recent venture by the Lilith Fund to 1) characterize abortion funding as hurricane charity and 2) juxtapose it with actual heroism is really just another sad attempt to argue that destroying unborn children is a moral good. And that argument is borne out of denial and guilt over the atrocity that is embraced by pro-abortion culture.

Pro-choicers’ arguments shouldn’t go unchallenged when they try to convince Americans that abortion, one of humanity’s greatest evils, is a moral good. Thank goodness, then, that many people on Twitter slammed NNAF Abortion Fund’s tweet in colorful fashion.

Many saw through the tweet’s heroism ruse:

Many pointed out that the tweet was tone-deaf, tasteless, or otherwise unwarranted:

Others drew attention to the figure of Lilith from ancient near east mythology. These Twitter users wondered to what extent the mythological Lilith served as the inspiration for the name “The Lilith Fund” (I mean, what are the odds that the Lilith Fund is named after Frasier Crane’s wife?):

Don’t let others fall for the lie that abortion services are heroic. Abortion services are never heroic. Abortion is only death. It kills babies quickly and souls slowly.

And for the record, this is a heroic way to treat a baby during a hurricane. Just, you know, to help the Lilith Fund get the picture. 

[UPDATE: 5:59 PT]: Here is another example of an attempt to characterize abortion as a heroic form of hurricane relief. Notice, again, that the hypothetical unborn child in the situation is invisible. The only vulnerable party mentioned or cared about is the hypothetical, stranded, abortion-seeking woman.
