Because they've lived so long in lies they can no longer identify what is true. They have no choice but to continue wearing masks of deception...it's the only tool they have now...so they keep selling it to those who buy their ticket.

An April 10 Rolling Stone article featured an interview with Dr. Willie Parker, an abortionist who identifies as a Christian. Parker’s recently released book is titled “Life’s Work: A Moral Argument for Choice” and was ghostwritten by Lisa Miller according to NYMag.com.
During the interview, Parker stated: “I don’t think it’s bombast at all that the closest thing I could think of that would be analogous to women not being in control of their reproductive rights would be the horrible legacy of slavery we have in this country.”
An April 8 Newsweek.com article noted, “…Parker compares restrictions on abortion to slavery.” The article added that he “spoke Wednesday night at the Strand Book Store in New York City about how, in both circumstances, someone claims to know what’s best for another individual and has control over that person’s autonomy.”
While this is an invalid comparison, a legitimate parallel can be drawn between slavery and abortion because both represent atrocities committed in American history. But while slavery has been abolished and most citizens view this aspect of the nation’s history with abhorrence, the legalized slaughter of millions in modern America represents an ongoing abortion genocide.
Future generations should learn to regard legalized abortion with the same revulsion that Americans currently regard the nation’s history of legal slavery.
While answering a question about how he’d been influenced by Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, Parker claimed that abortion advances “human dignity”:
The courage that’s necessary to assert yourself on behalf of human dignity, they modeled that for me, despite risk. And that became very important for me, because entering my role as an advocate for women’s reproductive rights and basic human equality across gender, I was well aware what happens when you go against convention and dogma and custom. There was no naiveté. There was just an assertion of my responsibility to pursue justice and human dignity.
But abortion is the murder of an unborn baby and represents precisely the opposite of “justice and human dignity” because it involves unjustly taking the baby’s life and denying both its humanity and its dignity.

During the interview, Parker linked Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential election loss to her gender:
The system works against even the most powerful women in a patriarchal society. Even powerful women can be constrained by the aspirations of the most ordinary, mediocre men. I think you saw that in the last election: One of the most prepared candidates, with experience and a track record in government and service, her interests were subordinated to the fact that people were not comfortable with a woman being in the most powerful position in this country, and by default the world.
Contrary to Parker’s assertion, many voters (including women) supported Trump for reasons unrelated to gender. Important issues like the economy, illegal immigration, ObamaCare, the Supreme Court, and abortion motivated many Americans to cast their ballot for Trump.
In addition to saying that the “notion of ‘making America great again’…means ‘making America white again,’” Parker also seemed to accuse the conservative Tea Party movement of racism:
Conservative folk don’t vote every four years – they vote in every political cycle. They vote at every level, which is why you have the Tea Party in 2010 as a direct response to having a black president. This whole notion of “taking our country back” – that rhetoric had never been spoken in the same way before the president was black.
For the final question of the interview, the interviewer queried:
“One final piece of the book I’d like to talk about is the shortest chapter…the one on the cynical “black genocide” movement. Why did you choose to address this conspiracy theory, pushed by anti-choice activists, that abortion is a white plot to kill black babies?”
Parker offered a lengthy answer that concluded with this bizarre analysis:
It just makes sense to me that the people opposed to abortion are really interested in controlling the fertility of white women. Because white women are the ones who are working outside the home and defying conventional nuclear family concepts. They’ve been able to do that by gaining control over their fertility. So what they understand is that if they exploit the fact that we’re very uncomfortable with race in this country, and frame the opposition to abortion as one of anti-racism – that if they can stop abortion for black women, they can stop abortion for all women. This is their primary interest. The only person who can have white babies is a white woman. And yet, if ultimately controlling the fertility of white women – who have been the greatest benefactors of affirmative action in terms of having aspirations outside the nuclear family – then all these other policies make perfect sense. But they don’t make any sense unless you can follow the thread and connect the dots to realize that they’re hoping to control the fertility of more than just black women.
‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
“Identifying” - the desire to be something you are not.
Nothing but premeditated murder. Lawyers demand that it’s okay to abort a child in less than eight months but keep murderers alive on death row for decades.
Matthew 15:8-9
8
‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth,
And[a] honor Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me.
9
And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
The only thing slavery and abortion have in common is that the supporters of each justify it by claiming the victims aren’t really human.
Something from Scripture about the heart being desperately wicked and deceitful comes to mind.
Willie should make speeches at KKK rallies like Margaret Sanger did.
Too bad his mama did not think like him.
Seemingly unbeknownst to this abortionist he is identifying as a Doomed Christian.
We’re quoting Rolling Stone, an outfit that has shown themselves to be as reliable as The Onion?
Satan shows himself as an angel of light. He will mislead many. Pelosi regards herself as a devote Catholic yet believes the same lie. Both are deceived. Their ears tickled with lies.
Why do liberals always pretend to be what they are not? Even communists say they are communists. Truly deranged people
Well stated!
Because they've lived so long in lies they can no longer identify what is true. They have no choice but to continue wearing masks of deception...it's the only tool they have now...so they keep selling it to those who buy their ticket.
The Old School view of doctors as smart people was definitely off the mark. Like many others, I used to consider physicians smart because of their schooling, but have met too many of them who are absolute morons in the real world. This bird definitely qualifies.
“Reproductive Rights” is a peculiar concept. If it has any validity it must be equally applicable to male and female. Once sexual intercourse occurs a third person becomes a possibility. That person has authority over both of its parents. The child’s mother is responsible for nurturing. The child’s father is responsible for providing. Abortion is a violation of this basic tenet.
Typically abortion follows sexual activity outside the bonds of family. Promiscuity is the primary cause of abortion. Sexual gratification with no desire for procreation negates the foundation of sexuality. Far from animalistic it is an act of contempt for the health of each partner. It is, in a word, pornographic.
Ex. 22:18 “Thou shalt not suffer a murderer to live.”
Delusional. Or, an attempt of wolf to wear sheep’s clothing.
Rationalization isnt equal to morality.
