Another Political Attempt by Anti-Abortion


 Anti-abortion has only one political card to play, it's a bogus card, and tries to get it in game in new ways. The card is that the fetus is a human being. The latest is a mass memorial for all the dead fetuses. They don't understand abortion rights can play their own "lives lost" card.

I don't think there has ever been a concerted effort to publicize lives of women lost in childbirth. Giving birth is a dangerous event. In poor countries it is among the highest causes of death among young women. I think a memorial for women who died in childbirth would be a nice offset to this phony anti-abortion gambit.

A memorial to women who died in childbirth would include those women who were victims of the Forced Birth Moment. The Forced Birth Movement is, of course, the entire anti-abortion enterprise. Women need to be controlled. Eve enticed Adam to eat the apple and put us under the yoke of sin forever. How could we now give women control over their own bodies?

We know anti-abortion is not very creative and their publicity gambit will follow the well worn path of all their other press events. There will be pictures of fetuses or children that were never born and names will be assigned. Protesters will march along saying "murder" "murder." I think I will begin now to gather pictures of women who died in childbirth and march beside anti-abortion crazies. 

NOTE:  I will be a guest on Jack Sunday's radio program Monday, Sept. 11th. We will be discussing a historical figure in Fargo's history. It is supposed to take place at 5:15 PM. The station is KFGO, 790 AM.

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
