Lefty Loonies Try to Put Religious Spin on Abortion

Most agree abortion is at the very least unpleasant. Even two of its most ardent political supporters, Bill and Hillary Clinton, concur abortion should be "safe, legal, and rare." There's no reason to say that unless abortion is bad for some reason.My Comments:
But latter-day feminist abortion advocates disagree. They think abortion is not just fine; it's holy.
I'm sure fringe feminist writings equate abortion as sacred. What surprises me are the mainstream pro-abortion feminist leaders making such statements today, like Debi Jackson, owner of Cincinnati Women's Services abortion mill, and Cecilia Fire Thunder, president of the Oglala Sioux Native American tribe.
I became aware of the sacredness of abortion when reading Debi's ramblings. In an abortionesque take-off of John Lennon's "Imagine," she posted "The World as I Would Create It" on the feminist website Moondance, aptly. After imagining the day when abortions were a private matter and contraceptives were easily accessed (hello?), Debi let loose:[Imagine] abortion centers allow each woman to create the chosen abortion experience for herself … From choosing the kind of lighting … to arranging for specific music that she would like to hear, the woman creates the space in which she will experience her abortion. …"Experience," "spiritual," "ceremony," "passage," "ancient ritual," "meditation," "celebrate," "sacred."
[Imagine a] woman's religious and/or spiritual preferences are not only respected, but are honored, with specially designed [abortion] rooms where a woman might receive spiritual guidance by clergy or a spiritual guide of the woman's choosing. She may create a ceremony with which to honor this passage, to be performed during the abortion or afterwards with family and friends in attendance. … She may have a circle of women friends take part in the procedure itself – an ancient ritual of fertility, life, death and rebirth. …
[Imagine t]he recovery period can be spent in a softly lit room in quiet meditation. … Group or individual ceremonies may be performed to celebrate the woman's journey on her chosen path. This is a period of reverence for the timeless and sacred ritual that is abortion.
These are words to describe abortion? With friends actually helping commit the act?
At which point, Debi – turning on the suction machine, chopping the baby up, collapsing the skull, or piecing the baby back together on the operating room table?
Maybe giving the mother a shot to stop her from hemorrhaging, or reinserting her bowel should it be accidentally removed?

Yes, let's tell the American public that feminists think abortion is sacred, something to be celebrated, a ceremonious and spiritual ritual.
And let's watch their rising repugnance against abortion spike up toward the heavens.
Once again, the left proves that they are clueless when it comes to talking about religion as it relates to their agenda.

Hmm, this has possibilities: How about, in the "baby-go-away" room, we put a crucifix up on the wall? Oh, and how about a statue of Mary, holding Jesus?
Or, maybe an image of Mary nursing Jesus?
No, I'm not holding my breath...
I disagree with your conclusion.
The left is not "clueless." In fact, to them (and their mentor, the Father of Lies) abortion IS a sacred ritual.
They are simply defining what we have always known.
Sadly, they aren't that far away from getting what they want.
I don't have it in me to write about it, though.
In case you didn't look:
Debi Jackson is the owner and director of Cincinnati Women's Services, a family planning clinic in Cincinnati, Ohio. Cincinnati Women's Services offers well-woman gynecological care and abortion services that encourage women to make a true connection with their heads and their hearts. When not at her clinic, Ms. Jackson can be found catering to the whims of her menagerie of rescued (and grateful) dogs and cats. She will be delighted to be contacted by E-mail. All thoughts, visions, and blessings are encouraged and welcome.
What a nice lady.
Yes, it fits that she extends the mercy to animals that she denies to human children. The Devil shrouds his activities in a simulacrum of 'goodness', why should abortion be any different.
