California Launches a Website Advertising Abortion Availability


Supposedly, the price tag of the new website is $1 million. It will tell women where surgical and medical abortions are available in California. It welcomes both in state and out of state patients. There are instructions to young women on how to navigate when parents do not approve of an abortion. The site includes a values statement from California. Unlike some other states, it is a state that values the rights of women. 

One lesson of the California site, plus the vote to maintain abortion rights in Kansas, is that if you support forced births of pregnant women, there may be groups lying to you. These are groups that advertise, "We are well on our way to eliminating abortion in the entire U.S. Send us money so we can finish the job."

How can any honest person or organization claim abortion can be eliminated in the U.S. when majorities of voters in several states are dug in the maintain it? Do these forced-birth crooks really themselves believe California voters will support no abortion?  Not a chance. Right-to-life on the take. Pour your money down a rat's hole if you want to. It's simply theft.

An example of a scam showed up on my computer today. Focus on Family said is you will give just $60.00 you will "save a baby."  "Research proves it," it said. No research is provided. It claims the money goes for ultrasound propaganda in pregnancy centers. Of course, only a fraction of the money will go for ultrasound machines. Thousands of women see ultrasound images of the fetuses every day. In spite of this, abortion clinics are booked solid. The $60 helps employees of Focus on Family, nothing else. Giving $60 to a food pantry is a better use of any good intentions.

The scam industry called anti-abortion has taken hundreds of millions of dollars from hapless members of the public. What we see as a result is the State of California spending a million to help women who want abortions. Millions more is being raised to pay transportation to and from abortion sites. Abortion rights supporters are far more determined and committed than those wanting to force women to give birth. 

Anyone doubting this may look at the State of California.

Maybe the "Original Sin" Should be Reassigned

Image
We can all agree most Catholic priests are fine people and not guilty of sexual abuse. What Catholics must face, however, it that their church harbors executives who are dishonest . There is an incredible story about the Argentine Bishop Zanchetta. The Pope worked with him in Argentina and they are considered friends. Around 2015 Zanchetta sent nude pictures of himself and they began circulating world wide. He also was too friendly with young seminarians and some left because of him.  Three different officials say they made formal complaints to the Vatican about Zanchetta between 2015 and 2017. Yet, in 2018, the Vatican claimed it was unaware of any complaints about Zanchetta. This might be a good time to repeat the Catholic hierarchy claims to have the sole authority handed down from Jesus to what the faith stands for. It condemns as sinners those who practice birth control, have abortions and gay sexual relationships. Handing the hierarchy this responsibility would make som

The Religious Capitol Invaders May Yet Win

Image
So much about U.S. society and religion can be learned from the Civil War and what happened afterwards. After its defeat, the South started a myth about the unethical soldiers from the North. The South fought for principles of God and states rights. The North did not. It was the South, this propaganda told the country, that had the high moral ground.  The Capitol invaders, encouraged by Trump, swallowed the myth that Biden's election was stolen. Thus, they think they held and still hold the high moral ground. This was reinforced by the cross and prayers during the invasion. Even with Trump is gone, we will see political opportunists like Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley stroking crowds and feeding the same lies as Trump. Like "the South will rise again" these gullible followers will talk of victory over the unclean. After the Civil War the South rallied around the phrase, Lost Cause. For decades, and maybe to this day, there are ceremonies remembering fallen martyrs, Re

Father Frank Pavone, the Ultimate Crook

Image
Recently, the Vatican defrocked Frank Pavone. His diehard fans are outraged. This is because he cleverly manipulated his fans and the press all the while living well from donations and, apparently, abusing some women. By making abortion the "sin" of the century, and himself the main opposition to this one sin, he himself could get away with any sin he pleased.  As the link points out, Pavone was the perfect priest for the Trump era. Trump is so self-important laws have no role in his life. He felt accountable to no one. Women were there to be had. Pavone and Trump are interchangeable.  Pavone was very successful raising money. In his mind, abortion was so important in Catholic beliefs and he was so important in anti-abortion the money he raised opposing it was his to do with what he liked. The Catholic Church, the brand name he used to raise this money, thought the money belonged to it. When he gave the Vatican the bird, it gave him walking papers. With polls showing the majo
