Rights and Wrongs

So

The Right and Conservative Christians, and their fans and promoters, are utterly appauled by the the idea that expectant mothers will be asked at their first meeting with a doctor if they are experiencing domestic abuse.

The same people who are utterly appauled by abortion, and are unswervingly ProLife.

I guess some people do not think sometimes!?
It would be logical to support that, I would have thought... oh well...

It makes perfect sense, for a given value of sense.

that value being: The Family is a god given entity - Mommy + Daddy + kiddies. Nothing is better for the soul.

To interfere with the proper formation and maintenance and support of the Family is the devils work.

To talk abortion is anti soul, anti-Family so they are Pro-life.

To discuss domestic abuse is to risk affecting the Family in a negative way, afterall what would happen if Preggie-Mom is beaten? the big baddies will try convince here to leave Daddy and split the Godly Family. So it is bad, presuming that women get beaten.

Huff. As I said, for a given value of sense.

I had a similar discussion with someone yesterday about Jehova's witness & blood - how can they condone the death of a child for want of a pint of blood?

the illogic comes in when you consider how likely a beating is to terminate the pregnancy, abortion without the woman making the choice, effectively.

My first thought.
