I VOTE 'YES' ON 26 (Respectfully, its YOUR choice!)

Hey everyone! PLEASE RESPECTFULLY READ THIS WITH AN OPEN MIND. This has been on my heart to share for a while, and I must be obedient to the Holy Spirit. Sometimes many of us overlook issues such as this out of fear of what the next may say, but if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything! Regardless of what you stand for, its your choice! I'm not trying to convert you over or anything, lol, but to simply bring you a bit of information. You are still free to think what you will and I respect your thoughts:

Okay, many of you know about the "VOTE FOR LIFE: VOTE YES ON 26" (Personhood Amendment) Initiative/Campaign to end abortion in Mississippi. With all due respect to everyone's opinions & feelings, there have been so many lies & some truths told. Though this is not up for argument, I just wanted to shed a bit of light on one of the biggest misunderstandings I think there is (though there are so many): The banning of Birth Control.

IF YOU VOTE 'YES', YOU ARE NOT HELPING TO DO AWAY WITH BIRTH CONTROL! BIRTH CONTROL WILL STILL REMAIN! According to Yeson26.net (via the Q&A section), "The Personhood Amendment will NOT ban the use of hormonal contraceptives, including most forms of the "Pill". However, drugs such as RU486 which allow a baby to be conceived and then expelled will be banned...."

In a nutshell, voting 'YES' gives an unborn child a chance to live and has nothing to do with the mother herself! If anything has a heartbeat, that means it is alive & deserves a chance at life to be the next President, Doctor, Lawyer, Preacher, Business Owner, & more! Its just protecting the child. Many people are saying/asking, "How can someone tell me what to do with MY body"....."I have the RIGHT to choose what I want to do"...."No one knows whats best for me"....etc, and all of this is very true, but its not talking about the adults, the amendment is only protecting the unborn children who have a right to live & make something of themselves just as YOU were blessed with the opportunity to do so!

If a woman conceives a child from a rape, incest, etc., then many people feel as if she has a right to an abortion. The amendment is saying that regardless of how the child was conceived, it still has a right to live & should not be done away with because of something that was out of "their" hand. There are many alternatives to not keeping or raising a child with the common alternative being ADOPTION! There are so many people that are willing & more than capable of raising a child(ren) that actually WANT to love & care for them. Abortion is not the only option...just think about it!

Now don't get me wrong, NO I do not know everything there is to know about this, and am still educating myself on it. I'm not telling you to vote 'YES' or 'NO'...but I'm simply coming to shed light on one of the biggest mis-conceptions I think there is about this (but you are free to make your own assumptions and formulate your own opinions). At the end of the day, YOU have a choice! I just ask that before we listen to what everyone else is saying that we read for ourselves and formulate our own opinions. As Christians, regardless of what we "feel" we should do, we have to have the heart & mind of CHRIST! That famous question, WHAT WOULD JESUS DO (WWJD) is what we should be asking ourselves! We must not hear only what we 'want' to hear, but pray & ask God to show you in the spirit of what this amendment is all about! I love each of you & you have the right to believe what you want. These are some of my views on it and I just want you to know for yourself! God bless you!

With all love & respect,
NINA
