In The Case Of Rape - The Juda Myers Story

In The Case Of Rape

By Juda Myers

Abortion. Volatile topic. And always the question, what about in cases of rape? How many times, will my way of being conceived, be the diversion to the question, what is the value of life?

I was standing outside a Planned Parenthood “Gala” (as if they were reveling in the celebration of death). Beautifully dressed, they passed by me and the others who were gathered just behind the barrier. One man stopped and spoke to the gentleman beside me when someone behind me shouted, “Why don't you talk to a woman?" So he turns to me and asks "You're a woman may I talk to you?" "Sure" I answered. So he turns to me and asks, “What if a woman is raped? Would you expect a woman to have to carry that baby?

I could have almost thought this was a set up but it was in my favor. I looked at my friend and said, “I can’t believe he asked me that.” I smiled and looked back at the man, “Glad you asked.” I said, “My mother was raped by eight men and yes I do expect women to give birth. I was placed for adoption but my mother has never regretted giving birth to me. She doesn't live with murder on her hands.”

People are shocked when I tell my story because most have never met a “real” one. We are no different than anyone else. You can’t tell us apart on the street, in the grocery or sitting next to you on a plane. While many say it is only 1% of the pregnancies I say there are more that go untold. I have met so many people who have either been raped and had a child, they are the child conceived in rape or they are the mother who aborted their baby conceived in rape. The latter greatly regret it. They say they never wanted to do it but they were pushed into it. We don’t kill the rapist if he is caught; why is it that rape children are targeted for death? Should I have had to pay for the crime of my father? My mother said no.  She knew the value of my life. I was part of her.

Most women don’t want to be violated again with an abortion after being raped. People around them usually push them into it. My own grandmother wanted me dead. But my mother was strong and with the help of a priest and a Methodist minister she was able to deliver me safely. She had short times with me because a social worker snuck me into her room during the two weeks she was recuperating. My birth mother then prayed 48 years to see me again. December 7, 2005 our eyes met again and it was the sweetest reunion. Then I asked about the circumstances of my conception. When I burst into tears she was quick to pat me and say, “Honey stop your cryin’. I’ve forgiven those men and look what God’s done. He’s brought you back to me. God is Faithful.” That statement led to my recording an original music CD called, God is Faithful plus a book, Hostile Conception Living With Purpose. The book is about forgiveness being possible no matter what happens in life. Even women who have aborted have found it healing. Forgiveness is available to everyone. I travel around the world sharing our story.

My mother, in giving me life, has also given life to my children and my grandchildren. Total lives saved at this writing-five and 2/3. Yes, in three months I’ll have another grandson. Life is valuable beyond our vision.

Everyone wants to be a hero. Anyone can, by helping to save the unborn babies.

You can count the seeds in an apple but you can’t count the apples in a seed.
