I've taken to calling them anti-Life because they always want to kill mothers off. I don't know why they hate mothers so much. Ashera must be mighty unhappy with them.

I don't know how that happened. Thank you for speaking up. I, too, support their right to make whatever choices they wish but I reject utterly their right to make choices for the rest of us based on their own narrow view of morality.

These folks aren't "pro-life"; they are "pro-punishment." And that's at the heart of this whole matter. The xtians despise and fear women, particularly sexually active women. I posit that this comes primarily from their own fear of themselves, biologically-speaking. Well, and the xtian male's incessant fear that his peepee is too wee wee. Which it is.

I'm an A.-E.M.T.-4-Paramedic AND Preceptor of Paramedics, (retired), and I reject the idea that a health care worker of ANY stripe can refuse to provide abortion, contraception, or any legal procedures/services, on so-called personal belief grounds.
Every hour-on-the-hour, 300+ humans die of a preventable, treatable disease,
(tuberculosis);
…Every day, tens of thousands die from starvation…
Yet, war profiteering, despite a world-wide economic depression, seems to be a growth industry!
If 'Human Life' is sacred from conception to natural deth, as the pope claims, how can a Catholic serve in a military commended by G.W. Bush?
I seldom, if ever, see/hear of 'prolife' pickets outside a Trident sub/B-2 Stealth base.
Logically, if an 'unborn' has a
'right' to life, as opposed to chance fortune of actual birth, our entire civilization, which would be lost if 'Crimson Tide', {…a Trident crew mutines & counter-mutinies over disputed W.M.D. launch orders}, occurs, has that same 'right'…
Apart from the indisputable point that abortion is no-one elses's business, there is a Taliban-like idea: that a specific religion, (Christinity, in this case), is allowed to claim some (suddenly discovered) 'moral obligation' to decide ANY issue, even for 'non-believers'.
I refer to this as a 'sudden discovery' because of Christinity's blood soaked history, and the inane idea that what was done, (wether in the middle ages or presently, (such as the Vatican's war AGAINST condom use to prevent STD transmission), is somehow, 'NOT relevant' when that same organization attempts to sway a politician's views, without regard for the political oligation to represent everyone in their district, (believer/nonbeliever alike). ratzinger_alias_benedict 'officaly' disgreed with Bush re Iraq;
This just begs the question: If I could be excommunicated for escourting woman into an abortion clinic, if I were (still) Catholic, where are the excommunications for war profiteering?
How is a 'bishop Richard Williamson', (holocaust denier), even considered for re-entry to the Catholic 'comunity'?
If I were pregnant & considering abortion, (a decesion that would be rendered, as a trip to the clinic, in 'fempto-seconds', BTW!), I would demand 'Hate Crime' sentence enhancement to anyone 'offering' me/mine, so-called 'sidewalk' counseling.
I support their right to make their bizzare positions known, but, even another Pagan's beliefs must yield, where me/mine are concerned.
