I, me, I don’t even have words for it. You know that’s saying something. Thank you for this wee bit of safe space, this place does not feel safe for the likes of this little insolent rib. A corpse has more rights and autonomy than a woman in the US right now if the church state has its way. Thank you. xomo

Exactly! It’s all patriarchal politics and the subjugation of women, there’s tons of baby killing in the bible, and the bible specifically states, life begins with the first breath, not a mass of cells with an electrical current blipping on a machine we’re going to call a beating heart.

Heya Super Mo, My wee bit of safe space can be dark and cynical at times, but at least women can choose not to visit, and that is indeed my point, a woman’s right to choose. Church states! we’re only getting over one here in Ireland after more than a century of being under their cosh, have 10 kids just don’t expect us to help you feed them, aargh! cheers David
