12. I prefer 'healthcare' to 'choices' so the right will understand. People are dying for lack of it...

In the red states where Medicaid was cut off, where Medicaid dollars were refused for clinics that did not need it for abortions. Biggest myth is that money was used in early term abortions, when a 'choice' is available, not late term when the life of the mother is at stake.

Many women are able to have babies due to the services that PP offers. But even the life of the mother doesn't matter to zealots. They sing songs and write pieces of heroic moms who willingly die to save their unborns, or so they say, although both can die.

My grandmother died two days after her twins died in childbirth, leaving six children motherless. That can be excused in the era it happened. But not today.

But you cannot get through to fanatics, their hearts are made hard by many means. And they are willing to interfere with the lives of people they never met due to their 'faith.'

Fact is, they are the ones without faith. They are looking to their own salvation, purchased with the lives of others. Because they have a magical belief that if all people were forced to live by their belief system, God would spare them their own sins.

EOM.
