Thanks Bot, a good post........
However, in my opine intellectually one-sided without extending any tolerance (
willingness to accept feelings, habits, or beliefs that are different from your own ) to others, but that you freely carve out charges of the opposition based in your beliefs.
Re: abortion, it has become a political football and presently a tool politicians use to garner support and power, I wonder if the ACLU would defend Margaret Sanger's rights to freedom of speech......
Here are just a few of the beliefs from the founder of Planned Parenthood:
"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
On blacks, immigrants and indigents:
"...human weeds,' 'reckless breeders,' 'spawning... human beings who never should have been born." Margaret Sanger, Pivot of Civilization, referring to immigrants and poor people
On sterilization & racial purification:
Sanger believed that, for the purpose of racial "purification," couples should be rewarded who chose sterilization. Birth Control in America, The Career of Margaret Sanger, by David Kennedy, p. 117, quoting a 1923 Sanger speech.
On the right of married couples to bear children:
Couples should be required to submit applications to have a child, she wrote in her "Plan for Peace." Birth Control Review, April 1932
On the purpose of birth control:
The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)
On the rights of the handicapped and mentally ill, and racial minorities:
"More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control." Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12
On religious convictions regarding sex outside of marriage:
"This book aims to answer the needs expressed in thousands on thousands of letters to me in the solution of marriage problems... Knowledge of sex truths frankly and plainly presented cannot possibly injure healthy, normal, young minds. Concealment, suppression, futile attempts to veil the unveilable - these work injury, as they seldom succeed and only render those who indulge in them ridiculous. For myself, I have full confidence in the cleanliness, the open-mindedness, the promise of the younger generation." Margaret Sanger, Happiness in Marriage (Bretano's, New York, 1927)
On the extermination of blacks:
"We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population," she said, "if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America, by Linda Gordon
On respecting the rights of the mentally ill:
In her "Plan for Peace," Sanger outlined her strategy for eradication of those she deemed "feebleminded." Among the steps included in her evil scheme were immigration restrictions; compulsory sterilization; segregation to a lifetime of farm work; etc. Birth Control Review, April 1932, p. 107
On adultery:
A woman's physical satisfaction was more important than any marriage vow, Sanger believed. Birth Control in America, p. 11
On marital sex:
"The marriage bed is the most degenerating influence in the social order," Sanger said. (p. 23) [Quite the opposite of God's view on the matter: "Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." (Hebrews 13:4)
On abortion:
"Criminal' abortions arise from a perverted sex relationship under the stress of economic necessity, and their greatest frequency is among married women." The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On the YMCA and YWCA:
"...brothels of the Spirit and morgues of Freedom!"), The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On the Catholic Church's view of contraception:
"...enforce SUBJUGATION by TURNING WOMAN INTO A MERE INCUBATOR." The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On motherhood:
"I cannot refrain from saying that women must come to recognize there is some function of womanhood other than being a child-bearing machine." What Every Girl Should Know, by Margaret Sanger (Max Maisel, Publisher, 1915) [Jesus said: "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep... for your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed (happy) are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the breasts which never gave suck." (Luke 23:24)]
Will the ACLU defend this, somehow I doubt it.
Will they defend this man rights to "freedom of expression"
He lost his job, one he did so well that Obama invited him to serve in his cabinet.
Not one charge of him using his faith to deny any other firefighter promotion exists, yet, those who stand against a persons freedom to believe and express, got him fired on the grounds that they BELIEVE it would bias him at performing his duties....
http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2015/01/06/atlantas-fire-ch...I remember Rush said we will have "thought police" and it appears the talking head is a prophet too!
Actually, the biggest statist killers in history have been anti-religious...Joesph Stalin, (seven million murdered) Mao Zedung (11 million murdered) Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge (2.5 million murdered)...These are just a few of historys non-religious mass murders, that list is actually quite large. (Including left wing idol, and mass murder, Ernesto (Che) Guevara.
So, why do you think "all war is religion, all religion is war"?
And one more thought about abortion.....
It would all prove a moot point IF people (men and women) practiced "birth control" BEFORE engaging. I mean after all, we ain't animals and do have "destiny" in our grasp, but our selfishness (getting our own fill) trumps, and everything else pays for it, and yes, even over population and the effecting pollution and strain it puts upon our planet.
And closing, I believe a teacher or anyone else employed in the public sector has a right to have in their possession a bible to read at their luxury, however, I believe God should NOT be referenced in the pledge or on our coin, as that is indeed sanctioning, as is tax exemptions for churches, etc.
I feel a flat consumption tax would repair many of our ills where the system inadvertently "endorses" one faction against another, it would even remove the problems associated with illegal aliens, as they would be paying into the system too, and thus entitled to its benefits....
