Adoption is the solution to the social injustice of abortion, he told the 2013 Youth Conference May 10 held in conjunction with the national March for Life.
“I am that one per cent used to justify abortion,” said Bomberger, who said he was conceived after rape.
He said he could not imagine his mother’s courage to choose to go through nine months “of a traumatic pregnancy,” after the “most violent act” changed her life forever. But because of her decision, his adoptive mother was able to hold him on the day he was born and have him in their home by the time he was six weeks old.
“I want to shatter the myth of the unwanted child,” he said.
His birth mother also exhibited courage. Bomberger was the first of 10 children his mother and father, a Christian couple, adopted; they had five children of their own. “Her father wanted nothing to do with her new family. If you adopt that n*****, I will disown you,” her father told her.
“He had such a deep-seated hatred my mother never knew about.” But a woman and a man who decide to follow God’s call and love someone who was simply unwanted shows how adoption releases hope, love and justice, Bomberger said.
“I was the first one adopted. They adopted nine more.
“My parents were probably a little crazy,” he said. “But quite honestly if you’re in this fight you better be a little crazy.”
Bomberger went on to obtain a Master’s degree in communications and uses his multi-media expertise to uphold human dignity and fight the scourge of abortion in the black community.
The Radiance Foundation came into being when his future wife, Bethany, found herself a single mom with a verbally and psychologically abusive boyfriend. A teacher in her mid-20s, Bethany resisted the pressure to have an abortion and gave birth to a baby girl. The baby daughter changed her mother’s life, said Bomberger.
The Radiance Foundation is meant to help people “shine” with their God-given purpose and to reveal the value of every human life.
Bomberger noted Canada has lost an estimated four million children to abortion since the criminal code was awarded in 1968.
He outlined the eugenics policies of Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood and her desire to get rid of poor blacks by eliminating the birth rate of those “she considered dysgenic.”
“The entire foundation of eugenics is about stopping overpopulation and deciding which parts you reduce,” he said.
The most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb, he said, noting that abortion ends more life than all other causes of death combined.
In New York City, the headquarters of Planned Parenthood, “more black babies are aborted than are born alive,” he said.
“Abortion has created an insane culture of abandonment,” he said, pointing to the rise of homes without fathers. “In the black community, that’s 70 per cent. Children need their fathers.
“You can choose parenting or adoption,” he said. “When abortion is chosen, we are robbed.”
