213. my sentiments exactly
Human life is NOT sacred and pretending that it is by outlawing abortion will only make our problems worse, because abortion is a symptom, not a cause.

It is a crime against love to lie about these things and if you don't think that's true, look at how long the lies have been the coin-of-the-realm and look at the general status of our culture's love-quotient.

There are many people who need to get over the notion that all you have to do is "believe" all of the pretty lies purely enough and things come true. It doesn't work.

We must begin with the truth. Human life is NOT sacred. We are abysmal failures at the one and only commandment of The New Testament and that fact reflects badly on those who have assumed responsibility for The Good News. Religion is a Failure.

Once an individual admits these things, then it becomes possible to begin to learn by honoring one another as best each of us can in our daily actions and interactions. Maybe that will take us where we very much need to go.

STOP the Lies.
