Texas attempts to return to The Dark Ages
by passing the most restrictive abortion law in the land ...

6 weeks

From the article:

"prohibits abortions once a fetal heartbeat can be detected (usually around 6 weeks)
and before most women even know they’re pregnant.
"

Even their own Bibles tell them that life begins with the first breath.
But whenever you point out embarrassing facts like that to Ghost Worshipers,
they go into zombie mode: their eyes stop blinking and their tiny little minds stop thinking
and they immediately and desperately try to change the subject.

Now that Trump has put the Supreme Court in the pockets of conservatives,
their chances of destroying Roe v. Wade have substantially increased.

Now let's see what science has to say about this ...

The Grand Jury in Texas has returned felony indictments
in the Planned Parenthood case involving the selling of fetal tissue.
But the indictments were not against anyone at Planned Parenthood ...

they were against the fraudulent video makers

Didn't you just love the way Governor Abbott squirmed

Now the media should fry Fiorina's ass;
and the Feds should charge her with incitement to riot
(which resulted in the deaths of 3 innocent people).

And then the media should start roasting Congress over their "investigation"
which is nothing more than a giant waste of taxpayer money

Justice Kennedy again sides with Liberal judges ...

postponing the shutdown of Texas abortion clinics

Nearly all Supreme Court decisions are now 5-4.
You couldn't ask for stronger evidence that we don't have
9 free-thinking, fair-minded individuals enforcing our laws.
If we did, you could still see 5-4 decisions
but they wouldn't always break down along strict party lines ...

but they do

What we do have is a group of political hacks dressed in robes
who are promoting Conservative ideology
at the expense of the American people and the American Constitution.

Two of those Conservatives, Roberts and Kennedy,
have proven on multiple occasions
that they do possess some sense of integrity.
So even when they side with their Conservative cohorts,
their opinions deserve inspection.

As for the other three: Alito, Scalia, and Thomas ...
we would be better off replacing them with girl scouts.

The next president may be able to replace several Supreme Court justices.
The Koch Brothers have made it clear that they will spend
whatever it takes to buy the White House (1-2 billion dollars).

So we may not have to worry much longer about all these 5-4 decisions.
Nor will there be any more "swing" votes from those with conscience.

attempted to school me on rational thinking ...

the results were not pretty

Millions of Christians believe that, 50 million times every year,
that hand above will close and kill the child before it ever has the chance to be born.
It's easy to see why so many worship Him.

The longer video shows that a Planned Parenthood staffer said 10 different times

All 10 instances were cut out and the video was edited to falsely claim she said the opposite.

Study identifies barriers to abortion services in developed countries

That was one of the most gutless, cowardly articles I have ever read.
Everyone already knows what the biggest barrier to abortion is.
Everyone already knows WHO is behind the attacks on abortion.

But neither Honor Whiteman nor the researchers
had the courage to stand up and identify religious bigots,
who murder doctors and bomb abortion clinics,
and the politicians who promote the religious agenda,
as the ones who are the biggest barriers to abortion.

Shame on you and the researchers for your cowardice.
Gutless displays like this ensure that the horror for women

So how do we know that anti-abortion activists are lying

It's never been about saving fetuses.
In fact, Conservative Christians worship a God

What is it with Catholics and contraception?

One of the biggest battles in America in the past 40 years has been the one over abortion.
So science has a great solution - contraception!
With prevention rates above 90% that would eliminate a great many abortions.
So how do religious nutbags respond to this great solution?

"Well we just spoke with our invisible friend about that
and He said, 'Uh Uh - Ain't gonna happen'. 
"

What do you mean? This is a great solution -
nobody gets hurt; and as an extra added bonus ...
it will greatly reduce sexually transmitted diseases.

"Sorry, but the Cloud Commander said
that you would be preventing the birth of children ...
and that's the same as killing them.
"

It was at this point that I finally got the picture:
it isn't about human life. Life means nothing to those who only worship death.
It is all about control. Religion must control every aspect of a person's life;
from what you eat, to whom you can love, and whom you must hate,
to when you can work, how much you will give to the church,
and even every thought that you think.
From birth until death the Church seeks to control every aspect of your life.

And their stand on contraception ... proves it.



However, in a classic case of "one-upsmanship"
senator Constance Johnson outdid me
by trying to add this satirical amendment to the bill:

"However, any action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen
anywhere but in a woman’s vagina
shall be interpreted and construed as an action against an unborn child.

Best and Worst states for women's rights

The "Red States" (Republican Party):
serving the interests of overweight, well-to-do, entitled white men ...

for almost 200 years now

This is why Republicans (pawns of the rich)
claim they are ardent supporters of "State's Rights":

Trump defunds Planned Parenthood in Red States

"State's Rights" is a dog whistle phrase coined by the Confederacy
to allow local bully boys to brutalize their own people
without government interference (think slavery).

But they show themselves for the hypocrites that they are
when they attempt to deny State's Rights to Blue States;
as when those states attempt to make conditions better for their own people.

In other words, the 14th Amendment is their greatest enemy ...

"No state shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;
nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
"

After killing Social Security ... The 14th Amendment is their next target.

Rolling back the clock by removing all progress made by the masses,
and returning things to the way they used to be,
is what gets Republicans up in the morning.

Was Edith Wilson America's first female president?

You'll have to decide yourself on that one.

But what never ceases to amaze me is how utterly non-proactive humans are.
I mean, how could you NOT provide for a mechanism
to run the country in case the president became disabled?
What did they say to themselves?
"Oh that'll never happen"

Senate passes 'violence against women act'
despite opposition by 22 male Republicans.

But the House of Representatives should be a tougher fight

In 2012 the country had a chance to throw out
the most unproductive congress in American history,
but instead, returned most of them,
insuring another 2 years of gridlock with little progress in sight.

Well, think about it - isn't that what the word 'conservative' means?

The Taliban orders hair and beauty salons to shut down

Notice the part "supreme leader Haibatullah Akhunzada,
who claimed days ago that the Taliban had
restored the status of women as "free and dignified
"

When people do monstrous things
they almost always defend those actions
by claiming they have done the exact opposite.
That proves that they know they are wrong
but they are determined to do it anyway.

We see the same thing in conservative traitors
who call themselves "patriots"
and fundamentalist conservatives
who prove they are fake, phony Christians.

Fundamentalist Christians and Fundamentalist Muslims are infamous for many things;
not the least of which is the amazing depths of misogyny
to which both are willing to sink to maintain dominion over their women.

So how about Fundamentalist Jews?
Don't be surprised; after all ...

where do you think the other two religons came from?

The threat of violence by those with the minds of little children
are one of the main factors holding back the advance of modern human society.

It is tradition in America for the bride's family to pay for the wedding ceremony.
Recently I learned of a family who refused to honor that custom,
so the groom's family had to pay the expenses.
No reason was given for the refusal, and I didn't feel it was my place to pry.
Whatever the reason, it points out yet another way
that society discriminates against women.

The average cost of an American wedding is around $25,000.
So if a couple has 3 daughters, they are facing the prospect
of having to find $75,000 in loose change lying around.
The couple with 3 sons, can just sit back and smile.
This places quite a stigma on having daughters,
in additon to all the others stigmas society has placed on women.

It's no wonder that in places like India and China,
where they are allowed to choose the sex of their children,
male babies greatly outnumber female babies
(by the way, that stategy is going to backfire on them quite badly when their kids grow up;
that's when they will learn that the girl babies will be highly valued, as any rare commodity is,
while many boys who are out-competed will have to settle for miserable lives).

Many bad ideas continue because of "tradition."
This custom of making the woman's parents responsible for all the wedding expenses,
is a tradition that needs to be put to rest.
One idea would be to have both families split the cost equally.
But whatever solution is selected, this is one stigma
that needs to be removed from a sex that is already overloaded with them.

The War On Women

I can't help but think: if it is at epidemic proportions now ...
how bad was it before?

As Pinker's book, The Better Angels Of Our Nature proves,
all forms of violence and discrimination were far worse in the past.

Religious freedom

This quote is by Charles Napier,
Commander of the British army in India, in the early 1800's

"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well.
We also have a custom:
when men burn a woman alive,
we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them.
Build your funeral pyre;
beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows.
You may follow your custom.
And then we will follow ours.
"
