Today at lunch I drove by a large number of abortion protesters outside the Hilton, here in Dallas. They showed me pictures of half-babies and what I'm pretty sure was a lizard. They were religious nuts, as those are the only people delusional enough to assume that standing on a street corner with a sign will change someone's opinion (although the fact that they've caused me to write this should be acknowledged.)
I am an atheist and tend to operate in the realm of reality.
With that being said... I am generally against abortions. No, I'm not saying that you should carry your grandfather's 47-chromosomed rape-baby to full term. What I am saying is that I don't want to pay for your abortion with my tax dollars, so at least consider what you're doing when you have a hard peen in you. I'm also not paying for politicians to waste time arguing over a moral issue in the political arena. I AM AGAINST ALL MORAL LEGISLATION, unless it will harm another living human (murder, rape, assault.) In an ideal world, abortion is legal but rarely occurs.
For further consideration:
-Birth control was first patented by Searle in 1955, known as Enovid.
-In 1965 Searle invented NutraSweet, a.k.a. aspartame. However, they were not able to get it approved by the FDA until 16 years later in 1981. The reason? Donald Rumsfeld was president & CEO from 1977-1985.
-Rumsfeld's last move was to sell Searle to Monsanto in 1985, ensuring that the patents would be in trusted hands.
What do I think? I think that there are a couple thousand individuals in the world who are so wealthy that they have nothing better to do than think of ways to soft-kill the poor and under-educated so that they never see age 60. These soft-kill methods include, but are not limited to: exposure to carcinogens and other heavy metal toxins through vaccines, chemical spraying otherwise known as Chemtrails over the majority of the world, exposure to growth hormones in milk, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, aspartame and other chemically formed artificial sweeteners, fluoride (#1 ingredient in industrial rat poison which was also given to concentration camp victims in Nazi Germany to curb resistance and cause lethargy.)
Haven't you notice an increase in female cancers, such as breast and ovarian cancer, over the last several decades? Don't you think this might correlate with the mainstreaming of birth control? At least read your inserts next time you get a refill and consider the glaring fact that you have to ask a pharmacist for it.
Music will be back on the next post.
Interesting write-up. I'm kinda confused on your actual stance, and though generally abortion isn't an atheist issue, I'm interested in the theistic arguments against abortion and their validity so that's the reason for the read. In regards to you "paying for abortions," taxpayer subsidies cannot be used to directly pay for abortions, according to the House Energy and Commerce Committee bill, H.R. 3200 and though apart from cases of rape or incest, or where abortion is necessary to save the life of the mother, only "private funds from the policyholders' own premiums" could be used to pay for abortions.
