We are number 20 (out of 21)

Unicef recently did a study of the welfare of children in developed countries. We are ranked 20th, only Britian is worse. What would Jesus think?

"Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me."
Mark 9:36-38 (in Context) Mark 9 (Whole Chapter)

We are second to last. We treat our children like crap. Jesus Wept, that is all that can be said.

1. Could it be that the Pretzeldent read Mark10:14...
..."Suffer the little children to come unto me..." and, being dyslexic, got the suffering part all wrong?

2. I love Randi's take on this.
Republicans love the fetus, but hate the child.

That about sums it up for me.
