The Sanctity of Life

I just heard a few days ago that the Duggars lost the most recent pregnancy.  I wonder how many of us thought "How sad" followed by "They have enough already" or "That was baby #21"
It makes me wonder if we as a christian community are really pro-life, or just anti-abortion. 

Miscarriage is a strange and sad thing.  I know I have refrained from telling people when I have miscarried out of trepidation of what they might say.  Not fear, mind you, I just don't want to hear their true heart on the matter.  My OB said it best one time; "It is a life that was lost, it is ok to mourn for it." 

I for one am truly sorry, and my heart goes out to the Duggar family.
