ONE OR THE MAJORITY

The inner voice of God in all

is only One,

but has a power greater

than any majority.

*

PROCHOICE or ANTiABORTION

PROLIFE, PROCHOICE

"Starseed Transmissions: One never
has enough data to assign value to any action."

1 The vast majority feel a woman should not
have to go through a pregnancy caused by rape.
2. The vast majority feel a woman should not
have to go through a pregnancy caused by incest.
3. A majority feel a woman should not be
required to sacrifice her own life to bear a child,
e.g. a diagnosis of plausible placental abruption,
a condition in which the placenta breaks away from
the body before birth. In the resultant blood loss
many women have lost consciousness and died.
4. Children born to parents who don't want them
are more likely to be beaten, abused, neglected.
5. Women who have 10 or 11 children are never
free to pursue their own dreams. Their husbands
spend lives in work drudgery trying to support all.
6. Alcoholic women have children whose brains are smaller
because of alcohol's destruction of nerve tissues.
7. Women with AIDS or syphilis,
women beaten during pregnancy, have children
who start off their lives with physical injuries.
They are born with pool hall 8 balls inside of them.
8. There are signs of mental handicapping
in fetuses. There are anacephalic children
born with virtually no heads.. with froglike
appearances.
9. It is the belief of many that aborted souls
come back to different parents or to the
same parents later.
10. The world has 7 billion people who down trees, shrink the rainforest,
destroy animal habitat and destabilize planetary weather, for wood houses, car
highways in countries whose governments do not support trains, for newspapers,
toilet paper etc.
11. Daughters of fundamentalist parents can
be beaten or shunned by those parents when
their pregnancy is discovered.
12. A majority of the world are neither
absolutist prolife nor absolutist prochoice.
A majority believe women have a right to
terminate a first trimester pregnancy.
A majority believe women should not
terminate a third trimester pregnancy.
13. Many women believe no government nor hospital
nor religious hierarchy of males should have sovereignty
over women's bodies.
14. A Manhattan friend went to a woman with the spiritual
gift of prophecy who charged nothing. The prophet had never
met the woman nor any of her friends, but said to her
'I see a soul has knocked on your door three times. The
fourth time you will let him in.' The client burst into
tears, for she had said nothing to anyone of her 3 abortions
and felt she was being told that she had not murdered a soul
but only delayed his entrance onto the world stage.
15. The churches, synagogues, mosques, governments which tell women it is a sin
to have an abortion are the very churches silent about
the partial birth abortions committed by bombs and drones
and missiles in illegal wars about which their leaders are silent..
16. Untold numbers of unwanted babies are thrown into dumpsters with or without
their umbilical cords to be crushed to death by machines after their births.
17. Marriages and families can be destroyed by a husband's
fathering a child with a woman not his wife.

18.  Recent laws passed in Texas and elsewhere

criminalizing abortion have been designed to give

minority Republicans election wins.

***

I've never had an abortion. My first pregnancy ended in a 6th month placenta
breakaway from which I lost consciousness. Luckily as I was hemorrhaging
I happened to be in an emergency room. After that, my inner plumbing destroyed,
I was never presented with the choices many women must make.

 I think of a woman who was left in a shack with 9 children, no money, no car and no food while her husband took off with a woman, or of the man who doesn't want the woman he was having an affair with, who is pregnant, to have a 'love' child whose presence
would always remind his wife of his infidelity or a medical student who finds herself pregnant while in medical school.. having the baby would mean she had to drop out. Yet another woman, a virgin

went to a party. Unbeknownst to her, the date rape drug Rohypnol was slipped into her drink. The following morning upon awakening she saw from the blood on her clothing that she had been violated.

it would be 2 months before she realized she was pregnant.

I have a friend who had 3 abortions.. she went to a psychic who
knew nothing about her.. the woman said 'i see a soul has knocked
on your door 3 times' the 4th time you will let him in'.. and my friend began
to weep silently.. knowing she had not prevented but only delayed
an entry onto the human stage.
 
Polls in the past have found a majority supported the right of women to have
a first trimester abortion... it was mixed for 2nd trimester
and a majority opposed third trimester abortion.. when the baby
is viable outside the body (perhaps any time from the 5th month
on)

Our planet is in trouble because our 7 billion or more people
are deforesting the planet, polluting the seas.. it seems that
the billionaires making $ as drug dealer vaccine company executives
have designed the covid19 vax to sterilize... men have lower sperm
counts after a jab  while many women are having stillborns and Dr Michael
Yeadon retired Pfizer vice president petitioned the European Union
to withdraw Pfizer vaccines saying it destroys the placenta.
Earlier
Pfizer sterilized and paralyzed African women without their knowledge or consent
with an alleged tetanus vaccine which contained an antifertility chemical.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12346214/
the anti-fertility drug human chorionic gonadotropin. Pfizer paid a paltry
75 million to fines. Several hundred thousand Africans were given the 'vaccine'.

It is not male priests, rabbis and pastors, male legislators, male doctors
who should have the power to ban abortions. Women can die in childbirth or
of complications in pregnancy. No woman should be required to take a chance on dying
in order to continue in a pregnancy.

Pope Francis, with the most extreme of views, states that
contraception is sinful. In a world threatened by extinction
because of deforestation as wild woods are bulldozed to make wood
for new houses, room for new developments, or toilet paper, such
a pronouncement threatens the planet.

Christians tend to believe there is one life only. Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and
others believe in reincarnation. Either way whatever one thinks of the morality
of abortion or of eating the flesh of murdered animals, as of this state in our
human race's evolution, the choice is the individual's. Women have the right to
control their life choices, and not to have them decided for them by men.
