A 1,500-year-old altar was just uncovered in Guatemala—once used to bring together two ancient cultures, the Mayans and the Teotihuacans. But how did they unite? Through child sacrifice.
Archaeologists found the remains of three children, no older than four, laid out around the altar—offered as part of ritual worship to gods like the Storm Goddess. This wasn’t some isolated horror. It was normal, accepted, and woven into daily life as a way to keep the gods happy.
Now fast forward to today—the rituals look different, but the reality is the same.
The abortion industry still sacrifices children every day—but instead of stone altars, it’s sterile clinics and deadly pills delivered to your doorstep. Instead of weather gods, the offerings are made to comfort, convenience, and control. And the practice is wrapped in words like “choice” and “reproductive freedom” to make it sound empowering.
Even archaeologists today defend the ancient child sacrifice as nonviolent because it is “a way of connecting with celestial bodies.” That same kind of justification happens now—except it’s labeled “healthcare.”
The anti-Life movement dehumanizes the preborn, only calling them babies when it suits their argument. That way, the truth is never faced: abortion kills a child.

More than one million preborn children were aborted in the United States in 2023 alone, according to the Guttmacher Institute. And even in states like Texas, the abortion industry is working hard to normalize their agenda—targeting minors through social media, advertising on college campuses, and trafficking abortion pills across state lines.
Whether it’s to please demonic gods or to maintain a lifestyle, the result is the same—innocent lives lost before they ever had a chance to take their first breath.
That ancient altar is more than just a historical artifact. It’s a warning.
When a culture forgets the value of its children, when it starts sacrificing its youngest for power, peace, or prosperity—we are walking a dark and familiar path.
Let this discovery be more than a story from the past. Let it wake us up. If we want to be remembered differently than those who came before us, we must break the cycle. We must choose Life.
Join us in prayer for all those considering abortion, abortion advocates, and those undecided on the Life issue. We pray the Lord brings them clarity, His truth, and salvation through Jesus Christ.
