Michelle Williams thanks God for abortion; pro-life women respond: Babies worth more than trophies

After Michelle Williams used her platform to promote abortion at the Golden Globes Sunday, pro-life advocates and conservative leaders took to social media to condemn the actress’s “sad” comments.

Williams, who won Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie for her role on "Fosse/Verdon," told the crowd Sunday evening that she was “grateful to have lived at a moment in our society when choice exists, because as women and as girls, things can happen to our bodies that are not our choice.”

“I've tried my very best to live a life of my own making and not just a series of events that happened to me, but one that I could stand back and look at and recognize my handwriting all over it — sometimes messy and scrawling, sometimes careful and precise, but one that I have carved with my own hand.”

“I wouldn't have been able to do this without employing a woman's right to choose,” she added. In an interview afterward, when asked by a reporter if she had personal experience to back up her statement, Williams refused to elaborate.

The actress, who also used the occasion to show off her new pregnancy at the ceremony with fiancé Thomas Kail, a film director, encouraged women to vote to support abortion. “I know my choices might look different but thank God or whomever you pray to that we live in a country founded on the principle that I am free to live by my faith and you are free to live by yours," Williams said. "So women, 18 to 118, when it is time to vote, please do so in your own self-interest; it's what men have been doing for years,” she added.

She’s all like “Whoo, I had sex, got pregnant and had an abortion. Ain’t I wonderful?”

I wonder whether her current pregnancy will end in birth or choice.

Rather depends on the current casting calls, no?

I really doubt feminists have to be prompted to do what suits themselves.

I did hear once, I think in the 1990s, that young men supported abortion more than women, as it gave them freedom from having their lifestyles and careers slowed down.

Not asked for their opinions: the baby girls and boys who were murdered by "abortion". Not in the discussion.

A woman thanking God for abortion is like a man thanking God for rape.

Wow! It's fun to make stupid similes like Demoncraps and Hollywood morons!

““I wouldn’t have been able to do this without employing a woman’s right to choose,”

Somehow I dont think God’s reaction will be, “excellent trade off!”

"things can happen to our bodies that are not our choice".

That's the same for everyone, man or woman. But it doesn't mean if you can fix it by killing someone, you should. Two wrongs don't make a right.

How condescending, implying that women don't vote their self-interests.

It is in *my* self-interest to vote for politicians who uphold the sanctity of human life. As a woman, I *never* want to trust my life and health to a physician who kills helpless human beings. That's *my* self-interest.

An equivalent to a plastic bowling trophy. These advocates are demented.

They’re not married, though. She may still be legally married to the husband she had last year ... some guy from a band?

It would be interesting to know whether non-marital-breakup stats correlate with divorce-initiation stats. A possible hypothesis is that a woman may file for divorce after the husband has moved on, because the woman has children and wants legal and financial issues nailed down. That wouldn’t apply in a non-marital situation.

My belief is the ratio is higher than 4:1 on the dating side of things.

You’re entitled to your belief, but without data, we don’t know. Also, I think it’s crap to say “dating” when there’s a pregnancy. It’s f*****g.
