Voting For More Than One Reason

 SINGLE ISSUE VOTERS are demonstrably lazy, negligent, not nearly as good at helping govern the country as they should be. There are far more issues than any single issue about which every good citizen should be concerned and informed. Most commonly the single issue is abortion. People whose every interest aligns better with a pro choice candidate often vote for an inferior anti-choice candidate, a candidate whose views on every other issue are antithetical to the interests of the voter, merely because of the abortion issue. This damages democracy. I'm pro choice, and I consider abortion to be murder. What else can it be, when a living human being is killed? My faith in God is so great that I believe that God, working through natural law, controls every movement of every particle of matter and energy in the universe, and decides whether women have abortions. If God decides to overturn Roe v. wade, she will decide to have an epidemic of women having self inflicted abortions with coat hangers in back alleys. I hope God will not decide not to overturn Roe v. Wade, and I predict that she will not, no matter how many far right ideologues conservative Republicans with whom to pack the Supreme Court . God obviously approves of abortion, or it would never happen, just as God obviously approves of, say world War Two. Either God approves of human suffering, or it would not happen, or, perhaps God is incapable of preventing human suffering, in which case, God is not God. If human suffering, including abortion ans war, occurs because God gave humanity free will, then God can revoke free will as he or  she chooses, selectively, but chooses not to.People who oppose abortion rights believe they are doing the will of God. And they indeed are.  So are the rest of us. So is every particle of matter and energy in the universe. God seems to enjoy a good, contentious American presidential election. He or she will undoubtedly proved an interesting aftermath to the election with wailing and gnashing and celebrating, and will proved an interesting supreme court session deciding whether to overturn Roe v. Wade. The Democrats should make it quite clear to their dishonest accusers that pro choice people are every bit as "pro life" as people who oppose a woman's reproductive rights. They should emphasize that pro choice people have a greater faith in God, and therefore see no use in limiting a person's choice through legislation or the courts.
