Yesterday, on our way to R’s parent’s auction, we passed a small’ish group of Christian crazies marching through Collins St to protest against abortion. R and I both glared at them briefly and then went back to our papers. They had laminated matching signs and charming pink balloons. Overall I was under-awed. R wanted a pen to write a slogan on her newspaper to show them out the window of the tram. We refrained but both concurred on the wording:
Against abortion? Don’t have one.
Hopefully most of those mindless bigots will get increasingly marginalised – whilst many aspects of our society seem to be drifting toward conversativism I think abortion is one of those issues that unites a lot of women on both sides of politics. Now if a few more men (Hi Tony!) – who have zero stake in the issue of a women’s control over her own body – would get the message then we’d be set.
Oh get over yourselves! I don’t share your beliefs (or your God) and therefore don’t have to agree with twisted ideas about controlling women’s bodies. Wake up and try to get out of the Dark Ages.
Christian crazies? You are the one that believes in murdering your own children within their mother’s womb. I think you are the one that needs some serious help.
“Against abortion? Don’t have one” That’s like saying, “Don’t believe in shooting babykilling abortionists, then don’t shoot one.”
SAY THIS PRAYER: Dear Jesus, I am a sinner and am headed to eternal hell because of my sins. I believe you died on the cross to take away my sins and to take me to heaven. Jesus, I ask you now to come into my heart and take away my sins and give me eternal life.
