"Joe Biden’s Abortion Extremism"

From the Editors of National Review Online:

Following Biden’s executive order, that large pot of federal funding [nearly $9 billion] once again will flow indiscriminately to foreign-aid groups such as Planned Parenthood International and other organizations whose chief aim is to profit from an increased number of abortions around the globe — including in countries that reject abortion.

...Though pro-abortion activists cheered these moves, the average American appears to have little interest in forcing the taxpayer to fund abortion. Polling suggests that a majority of the public opposes using U.S. aid money to fund abortions overseas, as do most Democrats and even most who call themselves pro-choice. Likewise, a majority opposes federal funding for abortion here in the U.S., including about a third of Democrats and pro-choice voters.

Despite Biden’s efforts to hide behind his Catholic faith and avoid defending his extremist abortion policy, under his administration, Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers need no longer choose between providing abortion and profiting at taxpayer expense. https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/01/joe-bidens-abortion-extremism/

Today is the annual national March for Life. From its website: "[We are] the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world. But this is not just a protest… TOGETHER, WE GATHER TO CELEBRATE LIFE. We celebrate each and every life, from the moment of conception. We envision a world where every life is celebrated, valued, and protected." National March for Life - March for Life

Your opinion would have more weight if you didn't support a president who ordered children be separated from their families.

But then again, you all demand that the child be born...but when called upon to help a mother with caring for the child...you complain about your tax dollars being spent on someone else's child and then slut-shame the mother.

Or when parents have a child with severe medical problems and resulting bills and then ask for help you all complain about your tax dollars being spent on someone else's child and then waggle your finger at the parents for daring to have sex that had the potential of giving birth to a sick child.
 
I'm curious if you also demand museums and universities sell donations of artwork or sculpture given to them, and give the proceeds to the poor. Do you? If not, why not?
Do universities and museums run world wide fund raisers for the poor???

What a stupid comparison...
 
Prenatal care aka healthcare, is aimed at the woman and her fetus. The goal is preventative medicine to keep both the woman and fetus alive and healthy. A woman does not become a mom until the baby is born.

Abortion is not healthcare unless the woman's life is at stake. Until then, it remains an elective procedure to terminate a pregnancy.

Nothing I said runs counter to that. You’re just playing semantics.

So then you don’t consider hysterectomies to be healthcare. I just don’t agree. ;)
 
Merriam Webster definition of baby:

a very young child, especially one newly or recently born.
Now look up the definition of child. A born or unborn person.

What a stupid comparison...
Why don't they? Why do you have a double standard for the secular/atheists?

The parents of those children are the ones who separated from them. Thank you, President Trump for putting a stop to that by not letting these parents in the country. What a shame Biden will allow parents to separate from them again.

Now look up in Merriam Webster the definition of 'child'. Definition 3a. "An unborn or recently born person"
 
Oh, now that's hilarious. Someone from the Catholic Church, one of the most secretive and corrupt organization in the world, trying to convince us that PP is disguising, misleading and hiding their "filthy deeds". Let's have a little chat about raping children. No? Why not? You brought up the topic of "filthy deeds"
The RCC is the greatest organization in the world, because it was founded by Jesus, and as such, its teachings are perfect. It's members have done more good for the world than any other group's members. Your objection is with the very few bad members who have violated their vows and behaved counter to the teachings of Jesus. How vile it is for you to besmirch the truly great people who have dedicated their lives of God, by lumping them in with those who acted against church teaching. Now if you want to talk about rape, murder, and other crimes against humanity, no one holds a candle to the socialist/atheist regimes around the world. These are the people YOU agree with philosophically.
 
Never said that, was never even referred to. Nice attempt at moving the goal posts...you fail again.
You said 'church hierarchy' owns the artwork. What do you mean by 'church hierarchy' if you don't mean priests? Who is this mysterious hierarchy other than priests and bishops? They don't 'own' the artwork anymore than a museum curator owns the museum's art.

Moving the goal posts again, never said the priests own anything...the CHURCH DOES. Dont lie and many of those assets are not accessible to the public at all. The Church could sell most and feed the world. Greedy hypocritical bastards.
There you go again. What is the church, other than the priests and people? There is no mysterious monolith?

The laws of the land disagree with MW. Do you know why?
 
They have jobs, they get salaries.

Please show where they 'live like royalty.' Royalty implies tens of millions at minimum.

Your objections to them successfully ensuring PP fulfills its stated goals and objectives to women's reproductive health and counseling are meaningless. They serve WOMEN. You serve your sad violent, misogynistic cult's misinterpretation of God's Word.
These CEOs with their huge salaries and lush lifestyles. So much of it on the taxpayer dime. And what do they do? Butcher children and demean women, and they do it for bald PROFIT. Blood money. Yet these are the vile people you defend.

Priests and sisters, on the other hand, devote their lives to God and to God's people. Elevating people. Helping people. All while taking vows of poverty. Such a contrast.

Citation that "These CEOs" live "lush lifestyles."

The Vatican, the government of the catholic church.
 
Now look up the definition of child. A born or unborn person.

Why don't they? Why do you have a double standard for the secular/atheists?

For the same reason the national trappers Association doesn't fund space exploration, it's not what they ****ing do!!!

Dismissed...

I'm glad you admit the RCC is in the business of helping people. But shouldn't every organization be?

Yes, they help priests who molest kids find new homes.
