Blogpost # M. 157 MOTHER’S DAY

There would seem to be no more inappropriate or reprehensible conceit than utilizing the woman’s existentially vital and painful service to mankind, childbirth, as poker chips in the rough-and-tumble, acrimonious world of politics. Women’s existential gift to the continuance of the human species is more appropriately venerated and protected by a firewall from matters of lesser consequence.

Sadly, the contrary has been the case due to the dominance of politically ambitious politicians with tactical and self-interested facilitation from organized religion. The latter, despite expressing foundational ambitions concerning matters of human morality, nevertheless, lends its irrationally based persuasive cogency to the common interest of persuasive control in the vital area of Man’s singular regenerative process.

The empirical process of giving birth is physically and emotionally hazardous, making appropriate and vital a separate and distinct branch of medicine, focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and conditions that affect women’s physical and emotional well-being, denominated “Women’s Health.” Notably, such a utilitarian subject is ordinarily foreign to the uninformed male.

Many politicians have callously utilized the marvelous maternal phenomenon as mere “chips” in their political poker game, heartlessly seeking personal power and influence,. Despite, or perhaps, ignorantly unaware, of the possible dire consequences of governmental regulation or elimination of this private right of women, for clinical or situational reasons, to terminate their pregnancy. and have been responsible for untold numbers of preventable life-threatening dangers and horrific tragedies.

Self-congratulatory and falsely principled citizens observably employ as the purported basis or faux moral rationale, for opposing a woman’s right to an abortion by the tactical attribution of a convenient moral or quasi-religious motivation to their true empirical and neurotic desire for influence. Notably, their avowed, foundational mission, viz., the protection of the fetus by opposing abortion (“Right to Life”)] is empirically disproven by their uniformly consistent, opposition to governmental assistance to the needy child, following the determinative event of birth. The obvious deceit in their representation of their moral concern for life is further confirmed by their uniform support of the ownership of death-dealing firearms, capital punishment, and, bizarrely, in many cases, opposition to prophylactic disease vaccination. The misleading mask of false morality is thus used to disguise an all-too-common and empirically neurotic desire for power and influence.

We are unable to morally or logically tolerate supposedly “Right to Life” adherents who tactically and cynically use religion or morality as the purported basis for their opposition to abortion, as constituting “murder,” (most emphatically those who intentionally kill obstetricians and nurses who perform abortions in furtherance of their dedicated belief, viz., “Right to Life). It is notably relevant that the New Testament does not speak on the subject. [N.B.: the anatomy and chemistry of birthing were unknown at the time(s) of their authorship].

The orange-haired egocentric, would-be Fuhrer, has proudly taken credit for the installation of morally impaired Justices to SCOTUS and by so doing, affirmatively claims full credit for the overturning of the half-century precedent of Roe v. Wade and thereby outlawing the humanistic right of pregnant mothers to obtain an abortion. He has boasted that “when elected” (heaven forefend) he will “take care” of women. Many citizens who have learned to translate Trump-speak, are cognizant that such use of the phrase,” will take care of” effectively signifies “control of” women.

In the patriotic spirit of active citizen participation in democratic citizenship, we intend to request our Congressman to apply to the Legislature for a Statute, effective next May, providing a mandatory injunction from the purchase of Mother’s Day cards by all patrons wearing red MAGA caps.
