Catholic in Name Only politicians are at it again. This time, 55 "Catholic" Democrats in Congress issued a statement on abortion.
The lawmakers claim to respect the "sanctity of human life," yet want abortion to remain legal. They call abortion a "religious issue." And they call it an "undesirable practice."
Here's what I don't get. I used to be one of these "personally pro-life" people who thought abortion was undesirable. Why do these people think it's undesirable? There can only be one reason. Because they, like I, know it's the taking of a human life.
So, why then aren't we allowed to put a stop to that? Why, on this one isssue, are we told we have no "right" to stop others from "choosing" to end human life?
If the goverment has no business being in the bedroom (does anyone here know of any abortion that's ever taken place in the bedroom?) why outlaw rape? Rape happens in a bedroom often. Why isn't a rapist free to choose to rape?
Why are murderers not free to choose to murder? What business does the goverment have in telling any of these people what to do?
The truth is, ALL laws tell people what to do. ALL laws take away certain choices, choices that hurt others.
This is NOT a religious issue. Don't believe me? Go ask Pagans for Life or Atheists for Life.
This is NOT a conservative, republican issue. Don't believe me? Go ask Feminists for Life or The Pro-Life Alliance of Gays and Lesbians.
So this statement from these lawmakers is full of holes. It may fool some people, but hopefully most will see right through those gaping holes.
