The last post I wrote dealt with truely evil domestic terrorists in the “government forced-birth” movement. I felt at that time and I still do, that organized religion in this country has devolved into a hate-filled supremacy for money cult.
Just as soon as I decide that all hope is lost,someone comes by makes me feel guilty and foolish. THIS time it came in the form of Frank Schaffer. He has been involved in the abortion is murder for power and profit gang for the last thirty years. He and his father traveled the country yelling at churches about us liberals and our “pro-abortion” stance.
After the murder of Dr Tiller in Wichita, Mr Schaffer wrote a piece for Huffington Post admitting that the rhetoric he and MANY others engaged in was over the top incendiary hate speech and responsible for the death of this and other womens health providers. As he states in the article, he is sorry that the movement he and his father started has gone from idological to reactionary and he said for that he is sorry. He restated this apology many times during an appearance on Rachel Madow’s show. So being the big liberal that I am, I’ll give this guy the benefit of a doubt. Is my faith in the “faithful” restored? To some degree. Will I get my Bible back out of it’s box? Probably not. This is one guy, in response to a terrorist attack HE helped inspire. Are there others willing to admit their accountability? We’ll see.

As noted by President Obama…both sides of the abortion issue mourn and they need to find common ground (birth control would be a good start!).

Hey Kay! It’s GREAT to hear from you again. Sorry I haven’t been around much, busy busy. Funny how abortions SOAR in this country every time the evangelitards take over. The birth control message is abhorrent to these nut-jobs and vast increases in STDs and abortions result. I read a book by a guy named Yancy that had a great quote. (I’m paraphrasing) It read, “When Christians try to pull God down to Earth, they usually wind up pulling Satan up from hell”.
