Abortion as a Cover for Sexual Promiscuity

"Draw near, sons of the sorceress, offspring of the adulterer and the loose woman. Whom are you mocking? Against whom do you open your mouth wide and stick out your tongue? Are you not children of transgression, the offspring of deceit, you who burn with lust among the oaks, under every green tree, who slaughter your children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?" -Isaiah 57:3-5. 

Sometimes the Scriptures are quite colorful in their descriptions of human beings. This is one of those times. The prophet rebukes men and women involved in sexual promiscuity. But I want to point especially to the way such men and women try to avoid the consequences of their behavior: by the slaughter of their own children. 

Are we not seeing this in our culture? It has actually been said that the recent Supreme Court decision overturning the abomination of Roe v. Wade that it spells the doom of "hook-up culture." Oh, the horror! But is that not an admission of the reason for so many abortions? The people involved want to satisfy their lusts without consequences, even to the point of murdering their own children! Not because of poverty or abusive partners, but just to avoid the consequences of their own decisions.
