What occurs inside a woman’s uterus is nobody’s business other than the woman who owns her own body. We all need to do whatever is possible to stop the United States from turning into ‘The Republic of Gilead’.
ed note–as we begin this little discussion, let us get one ‘protocol’ established here that needs to be understood in Kristol-clear clarity viz what has been the legalized murder of as many as ONE HUNDRED MILLION unborn children in America for the last half-century, which is that those on the ‘Christian right’ who champion Israel, champion the Old Testament and champion the Jews as ‘God’s chosen people’ are primarily to blame for it.
If someone willingly invites a deadly, poisonous and aggressive viper into his home–as a pet, a ‘friend’ or what-the-hell-ever–and this viper does what it is biologically and zoologically designed to do, which is to bite people and kill them, who is to blame?
Not the viper. He’s doing exactly what he was built to do, no different than fish swimming or birds flying.
This is precisely what the leaders of the ‘Christian right’ have done with their incessant and intolerable quoting of ‘Genesis 12’ and all that ‘I will bless those who bless thee and curse those who curse thee’ nonsense–invited the viper into our national home, given him (and his children) free reign over everything and protected them from both criticism and prosecution via the ‘protocols’ of that ‘old time religion’, rather than viewing these dangerous creatures, these ‘vipers’–the exact words that Jesus Christ Himself used in describing them–as the existential threat to us all that they are.
Yes, the ‘Christian right’ spoke out against child murder/infanticide for the horrendous crime against God, nature and mankind that it is–
But then, when the same thing happened in places such as Palestine, Iraq, Lebanon and everywhere else that the vipers were free to roam and free to do what vipers are biologically and zoologically ‘built’ to do–
It was championed as ‘God’s will’ and as the ‘fulfillment of prophecy’ and something that Jesus Himself wants to see happen.
And it is not just the nutty evangelicals who play with poisonous snakes in their church services, do a lot of hollering and yelling and all the other theatrics and ‘Jrama’ that have come to typify any Protestant church in America and the West who are to blame.
Shamed to say, it is Christendom itself that is to blame.
2,000 years ago when the fateful decision was made to co-mix the narrative of the person of Jesus Christ–the Prince of Peace–in with the gangsters of La Kosher Nostra (as their biblical CVs describe them) i.e. Abraham, Lott, Moses, Joshua, David, etc, what the world is witnessing right now became an inevitability. Rather than listening CAREFULLY AND CRITICALLY to what Jesus was saying concerning these ‘vipers’ and these ‘children of their father, the devil’, the ‘easy’ (and completely unwarranted) line was drawn between them and JC, when in fact the 2 were/are/always will be as different from each other as wolves and sheep, again, using the exact same comparison that Jesus Himself used.
As the reader will plainly see, the murder of America’s children through the process of abortion on demand is indeed a ‘Judaic’ commodity, not just in the fact that it was the followers of Judah-ism, the ‘children of Israel’ as they love to refer to themselves, who did the ‘heavy work’ in pushing it through the legal system in America, just as they did with pornography, gay marriage and all the rest of our national social ills, but indeed, a ‘Judaic’ commodity in the sense that this is what Judah-ism demands, and therefore, the followers of this bloody cult can be considered pious, devout and stalwart practitioners of their faith, in effect, ‘good Jews’.
After all, lest we forget–
When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are to possess and hands over to you the many peoples living there, you shall then slaughter them all and utterly destroy them…You shall save nothing alive that breathes…You shall show them no mercy. For you are a holy people unto the LORD thy God and He has chosen you to be a special people above all others upon the face of the earth…–Book of Deuteronomy

According to Jewish law if a fetus is a danger to the life of a woman (emotionally, psychologically and or physically), she is required to have an abortion. According to Jewish law, a fetus is not considered a living being until it comes out of a woman’s uterus. By not allowing Jewish women to have abortions, you are violating their civil rights to practicet their faith.
This issue of being anti-abortion comes from a Christian perspective. According to the constitution of the United States there is supposed to be a separation of Church and State. By creating laws which ban women from ending a pregnancy is imposing the Christian belief system onto those who practice other faiths, along with women who are unaffiliated to any religion.
These new laws which are being imposed on non-Christians in the United States reminds me of the Spanish Inquisition, where Christian Conquistadors chased down anyone who did not believe as they did, and would forced (sic) them to convert — or be beaten, raped, tortured and murdered. This is exactly what occurred to both Jews fleeing Spain.
