This is not euthanasia it is letting a dead baby off the ventilator, and avoiding unneccasry surgery.

Yea, you don’t know how many times I have been with someone and the crack off that these pro-life groups are a bunch of cavemen for not believing in condom use.
When I explain it to them, they are totally taken aback about it.
The left uses emotional charged triggers to distort others positions, don’t fall for it. When challenged demand that you be heard and explain it slowly so they understand your position.
You might just find you get some converts. I did.
Birth Control has been pushed by business for the same reason that it was first pushed by the socialists states: to get women out of the homes and make them into workers. They can then dilute the wages they give to men. Abortions are ok because they keep women from having to lose worktime.

"Forgetting Religion" Washington Post, March 22 1931
Which have been ignored.
The female body goes through substantive changes during pregnancy and 'aborting' the process leaves the body with trying to 'undo' the mess on a speeded up schedule.
The hormones, chemicals, energy in the body that would normally be used up during the process of producing a live baby are left to run wild in the system.
The breasts respond to the process of birth by preparing milk to nurture the baby. Aborting the baby may lead to the breasts producing unfully developed milk that just sits in the breast and leads to what we call 'cancer' (when more cells die than are created).
Medicine (modern medicine, anyway) does not give therapies or medicines that would reverse the process that occurs during pregnancy and return the female's body processes back to 'normal'. Ergo...
Humanae Vitae - Encyclical Letter of His Holiness Paul VI on the regulation of birth, 25 July 1968.
People continue to ignore this piece of literature which does better from 1968 to describe the logic in the posted article, as well as many other present social phenomena.
(perhaps not appropriate here, but it’s already conceived and FR does not allow the abortion of a comment, so...)
ThankU-486
Thanks are in order Mom,
or so it would seem.
For ending my life,
my hope, my young dream...
That night I arrived to my comfy new cave,
there were rockets, I sensed, and at least one crashing wave.
What magic did flare as you and he became three.
To be the joy of your lives surely Destiny chose me.
Till morning’s first light brought with it the fright,
which made one thing first now to be clear.
That though I loved you, dear mom, with all my tiny little might,
you didn’t seem to even know I was here.
Hours became days, my fate just a haze,
the good news had not reached you still yet.
Then came the pee test and my heart-broken gaze,
at your face now clearly filled with regret.
Please, please, oh mother, say I’m reading you wrong,
I promise, I swear, I’ll always be good.
Please, please, oh mother, sing me a comforting song,
and stop your frantic dialing to Planned (de)Parenthood.
Perhaps it is daddy who’ll love me dear,
and find me so unbearably cute.
But I’d then have society to fear,
it deeming his will and mine to be moot.
What kind of place are you running out there,
where daddys and daughters and sons,
Must sit on their hands or pull out their hair,
awaiting moms’ rulings on the next chosen ones?
So, thanks to you mom and thanks again still.
For your love as fleeting as Twitter,
for permanently cancelling my sitter,
or, at least, for choosing to kill via pill!
You can have your cruel world and its heartless love making,
where His blessings are now viewed as a bother.
But if you find a spare moment ‘tween all the pills that we’re taking,
please write to me care of the Father.
It’s amazing how far the rest of the world has fallen as well.
Your comment goes straight to the heart of the matter and deserves repeating. If one does not start from correct basic knowledge, everything that follows is built on quicksand.
Let me get this straight- you believe that women should not take the birth control pill?
I took it most of my life, and it has not hurt me at all.
You think that you are going to help wome as a whole, to avoid taking contraceptives?
How are you going to do that?
Unrealistic.
This article is a bunch of bull.
Great post. You put into words what I always suspected the health risks were with women who aborted their children.
When I was first married, the stupid doctor gave me a prescription for the morning after pill and when I read the side effects, I tore up the little piece of paper. I still have a bit of a hate-on towards that insensitive creep who didn’t go over all the things that could go wrong with that damned pill!
Women have been suckered by self-centered, sex-crazed men, lesbians, communists, like Betty Freidan, and just plain stupid jackasses into the whole pill/abortion argument.
“It seems like the best way to answer the question . . . is to emphasize helping women as a whole.
I find this an interesting thought.
Why would women need help, and from whom, and to what purpose. I never hear that men as a whole need help - we supposedly need to be tamed and neutered and put on a leash, domesticated, emasculated - but not helped! Are women, in some way, more in need of help for some reason, such that they cannot help themselves? I’m not offering a position or picking a fight here, just struck by the strangeness of this statement, and what I assume to be its underlying assumptions.
Then, RobbyS, you offer an interesting thought I had not entertained before:
“Birth Control has been pushed by business for the same reason that it was first pushed by the socialists states: to get women out of the homes and make them into workers. They can then dilute the wages they give to men. Abortions are ok because they keep women from having to lose worktime.”
I have often laid the decline in our society at the feet of the Marxist-inspired and fomented Women’s Liberation Movement, with the tragic impact it has had (by design) on the family and the development of succeeding generations of youth. Your post makes me wonder whether it was the lure of materialism and identity that was played on so effectively by the Marxists to undermine our nation, which has been my assumption, or whether indeed some part of it was the actual direct instillation of a Marxist utopia, without the need for those other manipulations at all. Could be both.
Thoughts welcome.
You favor killing innocent babies, I would say your perception is more damaged than you can possibly be aware:
Baby Josephs lawyer dropped from case: prayer vigils planned
This baby is not American.
This is not euthanasia it is letting a dead baby off the ventilator, and avoiding unneccasry surgery.
Actually, the article is not a lot of bull and no one is going to stop you from using contraceptives unless the crazed Islamists take over. Then we might as well all commit mass suicide.
But there are health risks associated with the pill as you must surely know and it’s silly not to pretend otherwise. I eat steaks and indulge in adult beverages - I try to figure that into my own longevity.
As far as I know, the only contraceptive that is effective, without health risks, is the condom - if used by responsible, married couples. Otherwise, all bets are off.
Do you not agree that it is time for men to take some of the responsibility for birth control? Condoms are the answer to that one but many selfish men refuse to acknowlege that.
You have to look at it this way-
Women in our society used to be barefoot and pregnant, and the man brought home the income.
It made for a good Ozzie and Harriet enviroment, but if you peeled back the facade, a lot of these homes had abuse in them. The stories I could tell about my Catholic relatives!Their families were a mess. They had large families, because they did not believe in birth control. I decided not to listen to the Pope regarding that issue based on what I have seen.
You have a man with power, because he is generating income. Women often were physically and emotionally abused.
Birth control gave power back to the women.
This is not a misogynistic society anymore.
America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within. - Joseph Stalin
