Elucidating Monstrosities

THE NUMBER OF WAYS in which the republican party, and the broader conservative movement a high percentage of whose members are evangelical Christians, has become the most harmful and dangerous organization in contemporary American society and world history, as Noam Chomsky says, are so many that for full understanding it becomes necessary to discuss then individually, issue by issue. That is the intention here. Considder women's reproductive rights. Roe v. Wade, and hence teh constitution, explicitly guarantee every woman the right to an abortion during the time before the fetus reaches viability, the ability to live outside the womb unassisted. Roe v. Wade is long settled law. As the U.S. Attorney General said recently, the new cleverly crafted law in Texas effectively prohibiting abortions in that stateis blatantly unconstitutional. It was enacted by Republicans, with virtually no Democratic support. Id left in place, it will cause incalculable human suffering and hardship. desperate women will be forced to take extreme measures and to endure great hardship, includoiing getting abortions in barbaric, primitve circumstances, risking their live sin so doing. The traditional conservative claim of supporting a strict, literal interpretation of the constitution is exposed as fraud, a lie. Texas Republican lawmakers deliberately viiolate the U.S. constitution in pursuit of theirtwisted, agenda, based on religious dogma rather than compassion and common sense. The traditional conservative claim to encourage and fight for "small government". "limited government" is also exposed as fraudulent. Republicans make a great show of defending the "rights of the unborn", harassing legal abortion clinics, visiting violence upon them and the people who work in them. Thus fortified with a false sense of moral superiority they so desperately covet to sustain their self esteem, once teh baby is born their job is over.The vacate the premisies, abandon the pro life crusade, and proudly express their intention of doing nothing to contribue to the child, or to assist in any way with its upbringing, often the sole responsibility of a single, abandoned mother. To give help through government channels would be, horror of horrors, socialism, and this must not be. Nobody is sure why. In the moral swampy morass that is contemporary conservatism, its every man, woman, and child for herself. Almost uniformly conservatives claim they believe in God. What they believe in is the psychopathic, mass murdering, genocidal emotionally deranged demon which the Bible describes as "God", but isn't, because it cannot be. The true God, the God of love, beauty, and natural law, we are better off believing is the true force within each pregnant woman which guides her and comforts her. The true God, the creator of this amazing universe, we must assume for the sake of sanity, sense, and reason is not concerned with human morality, did not invent human moraltiy, and is not concerned with government legislation. God either approves of war and abortion, or is powerless to prevent it. There is not the slightest trace of evidence for the existence of "free will", but overwheliming evidence, indeed proof, that the universe, and everything in it, behaves according to knowable natural law, God's law. We are destined to make do the best we can on our own, to invent our own laws and morality, but can be comforted knowing that we will not violate God's laws of nature, because it is not possible to do so, within the laws of nature.
