Want an Abortion? Visit Chat Box Charley


In an effort to make access to abortions or to abortion meds easier a large new site has been launched. It is called "Charley." The site asks your Zip code and time since your last period then instantly sorts through the options available. It wants to make a woman's inquiry feel like she is talking to a friend. The site will protect the woman's privacy by asking no questions about her address or phone and pledges to keep all the information it does collect confidential. It is an electronic version of what went on prior to Roe. Back then, information circulated by whispers. The very successful "Jane" operation in Chicago had no computer but performed thousands of safe abortions for women at that time.

We can be certain forced-birth activists have already tried to jam the new site with fake inquires and tried to divert inquiries to their own sites where sermons can be delivered about the sin of abortion. There are, no doubt, knock off sites trying to imply they are supporting abortion rights then switching messages. In Fargo where I was its Mayor in the 1980's forced-birth places put ads in the Yellow Pages implying they actually performed abortions. Only after a court order did they stop this crooked practice. In the forced-birth circle, the end always, ALWAYS, justifies the means.  There is no standard of integrity or truthfulness. 

The brains of forced birth operatives and believers are so poisoned with the absurd notion one fertilized cell is a human being they cannot think strategically. Their thinking is, "It's so obvious killing the one cell is murder all we have to do is pass a law against it and there will be no more such murders." Abortion rights operatives, and women who are determined to get abortions, think strategically and come up with ways to circumvent whatever forced birthers put out there. From our early information, it appears the forced birth effort to eliminate abortion in some states mostly has been ineffective. Some observers believe the total number of abortions, medical and surgical, have risen a bit.

It was predicted here and in other places anti-abortion would eventually play out exactly like alcohol prohibition. The two have lots in common. A majority of the public wanted to buy alcohol and want access to abortions today. Both anti campaigns had religion at their base but tried to use secular justifications. Prohibitionists said alcohol would strengthen family life and stop job absenteeism. Forced birth proponents have made up "human" characteristics such as fingerprints and DNA. 

Simple and practical ways of making alcohol available quickly developed. People could find it through moonshine networks and in Catholic Church basements where "Communion wine" was sold. Now, the internet called "Charley" is doing the same thing with abortion.

Maybe the "Original Sin" Should be Reassigned

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...

Who Suffers from a "Hardened Heart"

Image
Some years ago on this blog there was a discussion about what the Bible calls "The hardened heart." The "hardened heart" was the explanation given for why people like me cannot accept the tenets of Christianity. We are unable to believe there are floating spirits and gods or imaginary places people go when the die. Now, a prominent Christian preacher and author has given us a way to diagnose the "hardened heart." It contained some surprises.  Rev. John Piper, who spoke about the hardened heart, said we can see this in a person who lacks "ordinary tenderness and compassion." He went on to describe the characteristics of a person without the affliction of the hardened heart. A healthy person displays empathy and sympathy. Those with the hardened heart are like stone. Jesus wanted compassion for the poor. The hardened heart discussion referred to atheists only if they are sinners and then it was indirectly. Sin, Piper said, hardens one's heart a...

Young Women can see Bull$hit a Mile Away

Republicans including their Forced Birth subgroup is bother by recent election results and polling. All show young women going to the left. A poll shows young women are 30% more likely to be very liberal than young men. The link advises the Forced Birth community to give young pregnant women an uplifting message. The message suggested is, "Buck up. You've got this. You can give birth and have a happy life." Another way of saying this is, "It will be OK if you miss work and/or are fired because of the birth. If you cannot make your rent payment, it's OK. Somewhere out there is another place to live. We don't know where but be optimistic."   This is an add on to the new version of the Forced Birth message, "We're for both the baby and the mother." They are not and never have been for the mother. Their message has always been to condemn women who have abortions. Now, the "thoughts and prayers" message, which costs no money, it the me...
