Currently, the Republican Party has an iron grip on the US Supreme Court, a condition that could last decades. This is due to the machinations of Moscow Mitch McConnell, and the lies of the last four nominees (under oath) in their Senate hearings. Since then, they’ve been doing a bang-up job, mostly on the US Constitution. Their decisions thus far, especially regarding Roe v Wade have made it clear that the repeal of personal liberties, human rights, and even democracy itself, is only awaiting a takeover of Congress in 2022, and the return of the anti-Christ in 2024. What could possibly go wrong?

Well, for one, a nationwide permanent ban on all abortions and even most forms of contraception. Why would they do such a thing, you might wonder. Well, it sure has nothing to do with the sanctity of human life. Most Republicans would do nothing to ensure the health and survival of an infant or child after birth – in fact, they have never had a problem sending our young men and women to die in pointless war that enriches the arms manufacturers. To them, that’s showing support for our troops. Also, most conservatives join, support, or turn a blind eye to white supremacists who have terrorized minorities with death and destruction since the founding of our nation. Republicans refuse to pass any sensible gun control laws to stem the 38,000 gun deaths per year in America. Bottom line: Republicans care nothing about human lives except theirs.

The main reason Republicans want to end abortion is to garner the support of white evangelicals. No political party that believes in personal freedoms would sanction laws that restrict women from contraception by choice or forces them to consummate an unexpected or unwanted pregnancy. No nation has ever stopped abortion by outlawing it. They can, however, stop safe abortions. If one is sincere about ending abortion, the solution will come from the biological sciences in preventing pregnancy until the mother is prepared and committed to parenting. And the social sciences – there are clues in what works in affecting humans to be responsible by examining the policies of countries with the lowest abortion rates, which tend to be liberal, abortion-tolerant countries that advocate education and contraception over judgemental, prohibitive, so-called “Christian” tyrants feeding their own sense of moral superiority.
