Abortion is worse than Sharia Law

                As I have been reading news reports about “The March for Life 2012” I notice things.  Such as the Washington Post never has a long shot of the crowd.  They have about ten pictures two of which are of the pro-abortion counter-protesters and four of which were protesters engaging with the pro-abortion activists.  All of the pictures are tight on the face and two just of a hand holding rosary beads.  So the impact is that an undeterminable amount of people were at the march, so multiple comments claim that there were only about 200, tens of thousands in fact, and there were an indeterminate amount of counter- marchers, probably also 200 or more, 11 in fact.  When one sees pictures which normal people take of a march what one sees is an ocean of humanity.  I also read the comments pages because it matters to me how people process information.  A comment I read among the hundreds is that we are heading for Christian Sharia Law.  In Sharia Law if one is caught stealing that person’s hand is cut off, it being the vehicle of the offence and thus its absence would also cause the community to be aware of the person as a past offender.  In abortion law if two people have sex and a pregnancy results a baby is broken and sliced into pieces, a baby is a logical outcome of the sexual act and the couple wishing to hide themselves from the logical outcomes of their sexual act.  Abortion is far worse than Sharia Law.

                Only if a person were picked at random and made to answer for two person’s indiscretions could a practice be more unfair.  This is simply allowing a member of your family to be killed for those very indiscretions.  Abortion is more like the tyrant one would criticize in Iran, or the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein, or the civil rights record of any tyrant really.  The real difference is efficiency it would be hard to imagine 40 million or 50 million human beings destroyed by a despotic regime, it is estimated that 11 million people died in the Nazi concentration camps of those 6 million were Jews.  Joseph Stalin starved 7 million people to death in the Ukraine.  The Khmer Rouge in Cambodia murdered 2 million people.   400,000 people were killed in the Darfur genocide.  200,000 people died in the Bosnian genocide.

                The objection to these comparisons to our abortion epidemic of these United States is of course that babies in a mother’s womb are not babies.  A comment which I read yesterday illustrates this point stating that a fetus was actually a parasite, chemically masking itself from being attacked by the mother’s immune system and compromising a woman’s bodily integrity.

                The obvious problem with this argument is that having babies is natural.  A baby is not a parasite; even the author of such calumny was once a “parasitic” fetus.  If a baby is at the top of a woman’s bodily pecking order this is a totally natural occurrence.  Thus nature has made it so and thank God it has as there could be no humanity sans such measures.

 A woman’s body even colludes with these “parasites” as it monthly makes itself ready for just such an occupation; making the perfect environment for the invasion.  The womb is a perpetual turncoat pining to host a “parasite”; making things just so.  “Your body your choice” it guffaws waiting for its chance to aid the resistance.  Every female member of NARAL and Planned Parenthood, of a certain age of course, has this internal disconnect between the head, the heart, and the body, and particularly their uterus and ovaries issuing their monthly propaganda.

What adds insult to injury is that do to microchimerism having babies is incredibly beneficial to a woman’s health.  Microchimerism is a process by which mothers and babies share cells across the placenta in utero.  What this provides a mother is cell therapy for many decades after she has given birth, even though the mother’s immune system should have cleared these cells out in a matter of hours.

Dr. Kirby Johnson of Tufts Medical Center, Boston, relayed a story to illustrate these phenomena to NPR’s Robert Krulwich.  A woman had been admitted to a Boston hospital with symptoms of hepatitis.  She was an intravenous drug user who had five recorded pregnancies: one live birth, two miscarriages, and two abortions.  Johnson took a liver biopsy of her as a part of his examination and found after reviewing the lab results hundreds of fetal cells, “literally sheets of cells, whole areas which seemed to be normal.”

In conclusion, Christian Sharia law is not on the horizon, the abortion law in place now is far more illogical and backwards than Sharia law.  A fetus is a baby in a particular stage of development and not a parasite.  Pregnancy is not simply a woman’s burden but also a very real blessing and last, but certainly not least, one must read or watch the news with an eye for distortion and be willing to share the truth on comment boards.  Now put your hands upon your keyboard we break on three; one, two, three, break!

               

North Carolina vs. Mississippi

Today Mississippi votes on a “personhood” amendment.  Yesterday victims of a sterilization program in North Carolina spoke out on “Rock Center with Brian Williams”.  These two articles strike me as: one) they are both about reproductive rights, but two) they are also both about “personhood”.

                “North Carolina was one of 31 states to have a government run eugenics program.  By the 1960s, tens of thousands of Americans were sterilized as a result of these programs. 

Eugenics was a scientific theory that grew in popularity during the 1920s.  Eugenicists believed that poverty, promiscuity and alcoholism were traits that were inherited.  To eliminate those society ills and improve society’s gene pool, proponents of the theory argued that those that exhibited the traits should be sterilized.  Some of America’s wealthiest citizens of the time were eugenicists including Dr. Clarence Gamble of the Procter and Gamble fortune and James Hanes of the hosiery company.  Hanes helped found the Human Betterment League which promoted the cause of eugenicists. 

It began as a way to control welfare spending on poor white women and men, but over time, North Carolina shifted focus, targeting more women and more blacks than whites.  A third of the sterilizations performed in North Carolina were done on girls under the age of 18.  Some were as young as nine years old."

For the past eight years, North Carolina lawmakers have been working to find a way to compensate those involuntarily sterilized in the state between 1929 and 1974. During that time period, 7,600 people were sterilized in North Carolina.  Of those who were sterilized, 85 percent of the victims were female and 40 percent were non-white.”  (Rock Center, 7/11/11)

                So what we have here is classic victimization.  Women and minorities bore the brunt of the forced sterilizations, although anyone deemed “undesirable” would have fallen under the “guidance” of the governmental program.  Suffice it to say none of the victims would have been the daughters of industrial or governmental officials, they were the wheat which meads out the judgment to the chaff.

                It reminds me of abortion.  “How pray tell is that?”  The answer is obvious; the baby will drain the parent’s resources, the baby is unwanted, the baby is a psychological hardship, the baby will cause the mother to suffer physically, the baby is just like a good for nothing so and so that drains our society of all its goodness, like someone who would qualify for the eugenics program in North Carolina in the 1960’s.

                The baby is not a result of miraculous conception.  The baby is a result of two people having sex, unless it was conceived using In Vitro Fertilization which is also a eugenic process.  People who are pro-choice should be pro-choice and recognize that 99% of the pregnancies aborted are simply incredibly cruel forms of birth control.   Abortion is not actually pro-choice at all but an attempt to invalidate a choice; just as the powers that be seek to invalidate the lives of the victims of forced sterilization.

                To sterilize a person is to extinguish that person from the infinity of time.  I believe it is in the Midrash of the Jewish faith in which it is explained that to kill a person is not only to kill that individual but also all the persons of his or her lineage and so it is an incredibly grave matter, in other words every murderer is a serial killer with an infinite number of victims over an infinite number of lost generations.  The state has tried to erase that person who was sterilized from the fabric of time.  A mother who terminates her otherwise viable pregnancy faces the same reality; do you see how sick abortion is?  It erases a son or daughter out of time for all eternity.

                If one does not believe in the personhood of the baby in the womb then forced sterilization is a victimless crime.  For what is taken from the individual but their fertility and fertility only means one thing, a womb will never grow money.  What has been taken, as Governor Perdue also states, is more valuable than money it is our children.
