. Page Summary This page is the summary of the causes of, the motivations behind, and the underpinnings of the forced motherhood (anti-abortion) war. It also summarizes how to overturn the political steamroller of the conservative Christians leaders **10° and end the anti-abortion war. If you're like most people, when you're first exposed to this idea, you're very skeptical. It sounds crazy. It sounds too good (or too bad) to be true. Well it is true. And we challenge you to prove us wrong! **aa° Unfortunately, these concepts do not fit into a thirty-second-sound-bite summary, so it will require a few minutes reading to understand our approach.

. The Two Requirements l First Requirement: The first, the foremost, and the most critical thing you must do prior to making sense of this proposal is to understand how and why abortion is a religious freedom issue. l If you already know the complete truth about abortion, or if you're not willing to take the time and expend the effort required to examine this possibility, don't waste your time reading any further. Please Click here. l
If you
have an open mind and if you want to keep
abortion legal, . l Second Requirement: The second critical factor is learning how to talk about abortion using the correct language. In political circles, never talk directly about abortion. Never even say the word. Instead, talk constitutional law and speak to the principles underlying abortion such as the relationship between church and state and the First Amendment of the Constitution. To learn how to do this, please see the page titled: How to Speak "Constitution" to an Anti-abortionist.° When talking in front of the public, speak religion, and again, DO NOT talk about abortion. If you do refer to this topic, use the term, "Forced Motherhood." How to Talk to the Public About Abortion: The first and foremost rule in getting someone to understand your message is to speak in a language that the listener understands. Because the vast majority of those who favor forced motherhood are conservative Christians, we must speak to these people in Bible-related language. They simply don't understand and/or refuse to listen to any other language. We must connect our message to their eternal salvation. If you don't yet know how to do this, see the page titled: How to Speak "Religion" to An Anti-abortionist.° . |

. How
To Overturn . Power Versus the Truth: When you examine the forced motherhood controversy in its religious and historical context, you'll see that it's just one more battle in the age-old war between power and the truth. . The Power: On one hand, there's the behind the scenes power of the Roman Catholic Church and the more public positions held by the leaders from the ultra-conservative end of protestant Christianity. The conservative Christian leaders have millions of mindless sheep at their disposal -- sheep with money to donate and time to do tasks -- sheep who simply follow their leader's orders -- orders that they believe are coming from God by way of the church leaders. **1° . The Illusion: The church leaders are defending an antiquated illusion about life with the same intensity that their predecessors defended their declaration that the Earth was flat. They demand the passage of government laws based upon an unprovable, religious fairytale about God's instantaneous, supernatural, transcendental, conception magic act. **2° Their proposed laws are also based upon the unprovable belief that a human being is his/her physical body. **3° Unless the forced motherhood peddlers are derailed very soon, they will succeed at using these two unprovable, religious stories to outlaw abortion. They can succeed for two reasons. First, because they have the money, the positions, the followers, and the political power to force their ways onto the rest of us. And second, almost nobody is publicly speaking the truth about these two religious fairytales. . |
.

. The Truth: And then, there's the evidence -- evidence that contradicts the above two religious beliefs -- evidence such as the findings of sub-atomic physics which tells us that "Physical matter is not physical at all. It's made up entirely of energy." **3a There's also the fact that they ignore numerous Biblical passages such as Genesis 2:7 and Ecclesiastes 11:5 **4° which contradict both their conception-magic-act declaration **2° and their claim that a human being is his/her physical body. **3° Then there's the hypocrisy° and the lies of omission° exposed by the Official Roman Catholic Encyclopedia which flat our says we don't know the nature of what life is, or where it originates, or how it functions. **5° . Truth Versus Money and Power: But then, don't expect a little thing like the truth to stand between the church leaders and money, power, position, prestige, privilege, money, money, money and last but nor least, money. . The Real Questions: When you examine the public media presentations about the forced motherhood (anti-abortion) controversy, you'll find strong, compelling, voices for the Christian side and either no voice at all or rather empty-of-content voices for pro-choice side. But what you won't find anywhere but here (on our websites) are the answers to the following questions: "What's the real reason why Christian anti-abortion beliefs are being peddled in government halls?" **6° Why is it important to end this controversy? **7 ° and "How do we end it? **8° Our websites clearly answers all three of these questions. . The Motivation: This controversy is not just about abortion. When you look under the smoke screen, you'll find that it's actually a tool of conservative Christian leaders for gaining media attention and financial supporters **6° and it's a tool for those in political power to get mindless, Christian sheep into the voting booths to vote for Republican candidates. **9° Both the conservative church leaders **10° and the people who own the corporations that control the Republican party **6° want this controversy to continue. Why? Because it increases their power and wealth. . |

. . The
Truth Is to the Anti-abortion Leaders . Because the conservative Christian church leaders insist on translating their religious beliefs into secular law, it's prudent and appropriate that they be forced into publicly discussing the evidence supporting their claims. We can derail their media blitz by demanding that they show us the evidence supporting the claim that God's conception magic act is real; **2° by demanding that they show us the evidence supporting their claim that a human being is his/her physical body; **3° and by including in the public discussions the evidence that refutes their religious-based claims. The goal is to answer this question: Do the above two beliefs represent reality or are they simply Christian, religious beliefs about reality. If they are only religious beliefs, then they have no business being passed into secular law. The church leaders will be repulsed at this idea because subjecting their articles of faith to open questioning is just not allowed by the leaders of Christianity. They will be particularly repulsed at the thought of giving publicity to the Eastern philosophy's concept of intelligent creationism. **12° They do not want their followers to be exposed to any information that contradicts the party line. The Followers have already been told the Christian version of what God is and how "He" functions. They do not want their followers to hear a different story, and above all, they don't want their sheep to start thinking for themselves. Why? Because the two, above-mentioned religious beliefs ("conception magic" **2° & "I am my body" **3°) cannot stand the light of open questioning. If we push the public debates in this direction, they will have only two options: 1) end their demands, or 2) subject their abortion-related religious beliefs to public debate and intellectual scrutiny. The next section explains why they this is an either or choice that they desperately want to avoid. . |

. . The
Forced Motherhood Peddlers First, the anti-abortion war is a multi-billion dollar cash cow **6° that they don't want to lose, and second, opening Christian anti-abortion theology to public scrutiny could shake the Christian religious hierarchies to there very foundations. Regarding their theology, the leaders of the Roman Catholic church and the hard-line fundamentalist Christians are in a very difficult predicament. They have declared a whole series of ancient, un-defendable and unprovable stories to be literal truths. Not only is the scientific evidence pointing away from supporting their beliefs, the physical evidence is showing a stronger and stronger harmony with the Eastern religious philosophies. **12° It's All or Nothing: If Christian church leaders acknowledged that even one of their beliefs was wrong, that would be acknowledging that Christian theology was not complete and totally correct. This would bring their other beliefs into question, and church leaders know that questions are the arch enemy of their belief system. Fairytales, such as God's conception magic act, would be exposed for what they are. The truth could cause their entire house of cards to come tumbling down. This would not harm Christianity. The Christ Consciousness is secure and safe, but what would be seriously threatened are the archaic social structures that presently dominate Christianity. Their Stories from Christian Theology: Here are a few of their more prominent and controversial stories: l They have declared Christian theology to be the one and only true message from God. They have declared that all other religions are false religions. They have declared themselves to have exclusive access to God. The Roman Catholic hierarchy has even declared it's leader to be infallible. They have declared that every word in the Christian Bible must be taken as literal truth from God. l They ignore significant, personal empowerment concepts put forth in their Bible. Example One: John 14:12° (This passage is a message from Jesus and is commonly paraphrased as: "Anything I can do, you can do and more." Example Two: Psalms 82:6 "I have said, Ye [are] gods...") Example Three: John 1:1.° "In the Beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.." (This passage is the Universal Law of Thought expressed in Biblical terms. Instead of empowering people, they peddle a self-image destroyer to all, including defenseless little children. It's called original sin. Where is the Biblical support for this story? l They also ignore social concepts clearly stated in the Christian Bible that were acceptable 2,000 years ago, but are not acceptable today. For example, when you read Exodus Chapter 21,° you'll notice that, among other things, it orders you to stone to death a child who curses his parents and gives you permission to sell you daughters into sexual slavery. Their Stories Related to Forced Motherhood (abortion): l They deny that abortion is a religious issue.° With no evidence whatsoever to support it, they have simply declared that God's instantaneous, supernatural, transcendental conception magic act° is true. l In direct contradiction to the scientific evidence, they still declare that humans are their physical bodies. l They ignore numerous, significant biblical passages° such as Genesis 2:7, and Ecclesiastes 11:5. Even though the forced motherhood aspects of conservative, Christian theology are un-defendable and even though they have no significant evidence to support them, the Christian leaders spend vast amounts of time, energy, labor and money defending them. And in the process, they do great harm to all of the Earth's inhabitants, human and otherwise. Ref: #1° Ref: #2° . |

. . The Predictable Response: Let's examine our "How to End the Anti-abortion War" proposal from the psychological perspective that: "Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior." When challenged in a public forum, where they can't simply ignore the truth, the Christian church leaders will most likely continue do as they have done for centuries. They'll respond in a manner similar to the way they responded when faced with the truth of Martin Luther **13° in the 1500's. They'll back away from the truth. They'll stop their public clamoring and let the furor die down. And soon, they'll be back promoting business as usual. They'll just use a different avenue to continue collecting money and to maintain their positions of power, prestige, and privilege. **1° The Bottom Line: Let me say this again: The Truth Is to the Anti-abortion Leaders as Kryptonite is to Superman. The truth will keep abortion legal. But you can't simply sit back and expect someone else to speak that truth for you. . . . |

. . Thinking Outside the Box: The above proposal may sound to you like a "far out" " pie-in-the-sky" idea, but so did the ideas men like Copernicus, Galileo, the Wright brothers, Louis Pasteur, and thousand like them. **14° You also must consider that, at this time, those of you who support women's reproductive rights have only three options: . 1 Teach your daughters and granddaughters how to perform coat-hanger abortions. . 2 Do what nobody other than our pro-choice team has done -- come up with a new strategy that will save abortion rights -- a strategy that actually works and implement it immediately.OR 3 Support and/or participate in the fully functional, fully functioning, and already-proven program offered on our web sites.. .

We Have Been Accused of Christian Bashing. To see the truth about the anti-evolution, anti-abortion, moral-values peddlers, you have but to examine: / What they actually do° / What they ignore in their own Bible° / How they deceive others with lies of omission° / Their unethical-immoral behavior,° / Why they do it,° / The techniques they use,° / The company they keep,° / the inevitable Consequences of their actions,° / and The unprovable fairytale° that their entire anti-choice war is based on. . **1
We Have Also Been Accused of Anti-Christian Bigotry. In a closed mind, the truth is no match for a good fantasy. In an open mind, even the grandest fantasy is no match for the truth. . **2
God's Instantaneous, Supernatural,
Transcendental, Conception Magic Act. This is one of
two core beliefs supporting the anti-abortion war. In
essence, this story says that God steps in every time a human egg and sperm
unite and somehow magically transforms that egg into a brand new
human being that lives only once on Earth and then goes to heaven or
hell forever. We invite you to examine the evidence and
the lack of evidence: . **3
Is a Human Being His/Her Physical Body? On the
other hand, if humans are something other than their physical bodies, then the egg is merely the seed, the
"blueprints," the instructions from which a physical, human body is
created out of earth matter. That potential, when developed and nurtured, grows
into a physical body which becomes an Earth-vehicle for a being, for a soul, or as the
Christian Bible calls it, a host for the "Spirit." Obviously,
if the physical egg, itself, is not the human being, then what happens to that
egg is a personal, private matter° and is not an issue for
public debate. If everything is made up of energy, how can we possibly be our physical bodies? http://www.choice101.com/r30-references.html#AmIMyPhysicalBody° Nobody
can tell us what the consciousness is that animates our physical
bodies. Whatever it is, it is not physical.
How can we understand that which is not physical while limited to a
physical body? Here's

Distinguish
Leaders from Followers A thorough examination of the underlying evidence and a close look at the activities of the no-choice leaders tells us a very different story. The picture is far less rosy. Actually, it's rather grim. Because not everybody is open and honest, we would like to distinguish, for you, the differences between those with loving intentions from those with a very different intention (i.e. from those with a hidden agenda.°) http://www.choice101.com/18-leaders-followers.html° . **11
How to Talk "Religion"
-- How to Talk to the Public About Abortion
This section teaches speakers how to speak the language that will undermine the
false foundation of the anti-abortion movement: . **12
The Eastern Philosophy's Concept of
Intelligent Creationism "Physical matter is only a very small part of reality. Life does not begin at conception, or at birth, or anywhere else, and life does not end at death. Humans are not physical bodies. Humans are eternal, non-physical, divine beings who temporarily inhabit physical bodies. Everything is a part of and intimately related to everything else. An 'Intelligent Creator' created everything we know about and everything we still don't know about. The 'Intelligent Creator' is beyond human knowledge and understanding. Humans are part of and co-creators with 'God.' Within the context of life on Earth, we are the creators of our personal experiences." For
a summary comparison of this belief and the Christian beliefs, see the page
titled: Evolution
Versus Six days of Creation -- Page Five -- The Bottom line.°
For an in-depth analysis of the relationships among Christian
one-life-ism, reincarnation, and atheism, see the page
titled: The Three
Fundamental Human Assumptions.° . **13
Martin Luther After
years of extreme dedication to the Church, Luther came to the conclusion that
Church intermediaries between a human being and God were irrelevant and
unnecessary. He said that salvation was a function of God's grace and
was not a product of one's physical activities. Neither was it a
product of one's devotion to the Roman Catholic Church. When
was the last time you heard a Christian church leader give a sermon about
Luther's thesis? . **14
