SLAVERY AND ABORTION: POWER CORRUPTS
There are similarities between abortion and slavery. Persons in positions of power enforce their will on weak, poor and helpless individuals or babies, under the protection of an unjust legal system put in place by political leaders who chose (!) to cater to the powerful and ruthless.
It is passe to try to justify slavery, but there is still a busy contingent speaking out about the value of looking the other way while other people exercise their freedom of choice (to terminate lives). It all starts with the secular article of faith that we can live out and manage without consequences totally uninhibited sex lives by the means of interfering with the ways of nature. Anything that might suggest that there are some gruesome flies in that ointment (such as all types of health problems, men too!) is perforce ignored, denied or squelched.
I don’t know to what extent the fiction is believed by girls and women, but abortion is presented and ’sold’ as efficient and harmless. In Russia I understand it is more common than almost anywhere else, the lingering corruption cultivated during years of governmental hubris. Now there is accumulating a body of evidence that ought not be squelched that it and other free sex behaviors do indeed have untoward consequences, apart from immorality and sin.
