Expect Personhood Laws & Making Using Contraception Being Criminalized.

The RW Churches and the pro life movement are now out in the open about their agenda. And that agenda is the goal of ending the use of contraception and family planning in the United States. Their goal is to even criminalize interfering with the procreative process in any way except abstinence. This goal is the same goal that the Catholic Church supports because the Catholic Church teaches life begins at conception.

The church also teaches that masturbation or engaging in any sexual activity outside of marriage is a sin. Even IMPURE thoughts are to be avoided. Even using condoms is taught as sin in the Catholic Church.

So now we have state legislatures and GOPPERS in Congress who want to in effect regulate sex. The silencing of Warren is just the first step in silencing women and putting them in their place. GOP legislators believe women belong ONLY in the home. We are now seeing an outright and complete assault on women's right as never before. The GOP Taliban rules.

The proposed law in Oklahoma reveals how far the GOP and churches are willing to go to control a woman's right to choose. A law that makes it illegal to have an abortion FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER including rape or incest. Another version prevents aborting a malformed and nonviable fetus or severely disabled fetus or to save the life of the mother is the next big cause.
Such a law would prevent ending an ectopic pregnancy.

These realities are upon us. Trump will give the religious right anything it wants.
