I really don't know why, but I was watching 20/20 tonight and they had a piece on militant anti-abortionists. These people call themselves the "Army of God." They claim to be Christians. They blow up clinics, protest, and kill doctors. Take life to protect it... Before I go any further I'd like to toss in a little analogy.
Do you smoke? Chances are about half that you do. Well, I don't. I personally think it's a disgusting habit. You blow tons of carcinogens in the air and pollute an already pretty nasty atmosphere taking out the ozone for the rest of us. You either have or will knock years off the life of your wife and kids by smoking in the same room as them and forcing them to inhale hundreds of chemicals. You puff away money that could be used to pay for your kid's entire education or maybe a nice house. And why? So you can feel good one minute at a time? Try beating off. Should I come to your house and blow it up? Shoot you? Send you hate mail just because I don't like it?
But why not?! You're killing people! You're hurting people you don't know and even your own family!
So you don't smoke. Do you drink? I don't. Did you know 27% of drinkers drink excessively! You're taking years off your lifespan, not to mention the damage it does to family life and your career! Your kids can grow up emotionally scarred, and you could mentally and physically injure your spouse! Not to mention all the times you see a giant alcohol related car crash on the front page of the newspaper. Those drunk driver people walk away unharmed and kill thousands per year. Man, that stuff's dangerous! I don't do it, so goddammit let's be rid of it!
Religion? Oh fuck, let's go through history and count how many people died during holy wars! How about the inquisition? Why is this still around, it kills people!? Waitaminute, look at the world trade center... Wasn't that also caused by someone doing God's work? Aren't they called terrorists? Isn't that what all of America is so up in arms about?
"Oh, come on, that wasn't me. Those were Muslims. They believe something other than what I do, and since I know everything, they're wrong. I'm not. Abortion is different. That's EVIL!!!! OOOOHHHHH SCARRRY!!! EVILEVILEVIL!!!"
Killing things is evil? Well let's carry that to it's logical conclusion, shall we? Well then be a vegetarian! No animals need to die for you! Woah! Better stay inside, wouldn't want to step on any bugs and kill them. They have babies you know.
Ooooohhhh, my mistake, only killing humans is evil. I get it. So how fucking arrogant are you that you think we're the only species worth saving? Ah well, even if humans are the only worthy ones, then everyone who picks on someone in high school that killed themselves should die.
Oh, but they didn't do it directly so it's OK.
But would that person have killed themselves without them? No. So then they did kill the person... Hmmmm... I think I'll go to each of their houses and kill them then. But then I'd be a murderer... Well kill me then! Of course, then you'd have to die. Then someone would kill you. Pretty soon there'd be only 1 person left on the planet, then he'd have to kill himself.
No?
So it's okay to indirectly kill people then? Well fuck, this is just getting crazy! Does it have to be a human fetus? Screw it, let's go a little earlier than that. Should we go so far as to save every sperm and every egg? They should be people too! SAVE THE SPERM!!! Using a condom is spermicide!
I saw the leader of the Army in an interview. He says he prefers live babies to live abortionists. I prefer playing games to working, so should I kill people because of what I prefer? Should old men fuck little boys because they prefer it? You know what asshole? Until you have a good, real, LEGAL argument, leave everyone alone you piece of shit.
I understand that stuff happens that I don't approve of. People smoke, drink, have abortions, drive dangerously, and cause other people to kill themselves. Should they die for it? No. Just because I don't do it, doesn't make it wrong. To think that the way you live is how the rest of the world should is arrogant as hell.
"Army of God" my fat, hairy ass. The bible says God gave us free will so we could make our own choices. See, the thing you worship says it's okay to do what you want. God says he will punish, not you. Live what you preach fuckheads. |

all i can do is aggree with you here - you have boviously thought alot about this.
if you trace every war back to its very roots you will find religion - the middle aged crusades - holy war in the name of god. world war 2 - ethnic differnces against the jues. the war on terrerism - muslims and other religiouis fractions against countrys that have annoyed them. almost every war can be boiled down to a beleif religious or otherwise and usually it ends up as "i beleive that place should be in our territory!! err... because god says so!!" ive already dissed religion in the other rants but i thought id give it one last go.
about abortion - there is no such thing as morally wrong - that is [like alot of things in this world] and opinion. "this is morraly wrong!" - what is wrong with that sentence... 1. it is a statement and as such it is in fact a grammatical error because it should be "i think" or "we think". 2. it is almost assuming that people will join you just because you have stated your opinion.
i - myself, beleive that abortion is morally wrong but i dont go about preching it instead i would concentrate on makeing better preventives. if you dont wanna have kids then use the pill or something and if that doesnt work that i do beleive that abortions are right because i wouldnt like to grow up as a child knowing i was a "mistake". if you are not ready for children and think that its to early then the best preventive is not to have it off with your boyfreind but failing that science can provide preventives but i think that abortion is a last resort. my feelings is that it should be a last alternitive - a safety net but not somewhere you want to be. im raveing a bit now but i think ive got my point accross here.
btw, love ure rants and hope that some day people will realise there is something wrong with the world. |
