Gloria Steinem Supports Abortion Because: “Forced Childbirth is the Single Biggest Cause...

FULL TITLE: Gloria Steinem Supports Abortion Because: “Forced Childbirth is the Single Biggest Cause of Global Warming”

“Forced childbirth is the single biggest cause of global warming,” Gloria Steinem said at a recent gala celebrating Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region’s 75th Anniversary.

Steinem, a prominent abortion activist in the feminist movement, gave the keynote address at the event, The Commercial Appeal reported. She used the opportunity to celebrate the nation’s largest abortion chain and push abortions.

Steinem began her 20-minute speech by promoting “reproductive rights.” She said: “Nothing but nothing is more important than ensuring our fundamental right to reproductive freedom. The principle that government power stops at our skin.”

She then went on to attribute global warming to “forced childbirth.” This comment reflects prior statements she made last year regarding Pope Francis and global warming. During an interview with Cosmopolitan, Steinem attributed global warming to the teachings of the Catholic Church on the sanctity of human life.

She said at the time, “…the human load on this earth is the biggest cause of global warming, and that is because of forcing women to have children they would not on their own choose to have…”

Steinem specifically linked global warming to Pope Francis: “I’m glad the Pope spoke out about global warming and it was very helpful, but does he know he’s causing it?”

Her answer to this is more abortions, and it fit right in with the Tennessee abortion affiliate’s goals for the evening. The Tennessee Planned Parenthood announced before Steinem’s talk that it plans to use the money raised from the event to build a second abortion facility in the area.

Steinem is exulted in liberal circles as an inspirational feminist. She constantly promotes abortion despite how abortion strips future women of their voices. This is one reason why many feminists identify as pro-life.

Patricia Heaton, a well-known actress from “The Middle” and leader with Feminists for Life, explained her pro-life view during an interview with The Blaze: “I find it impossible to subscribe to a philosophy that believes that the destruction of human life is a legitimate solution to a problem that is mostly social, economic and psychological. In reality, most women ‘choose’ abortion because they believe they have no other choice.”

Although abortion stops the heartbeats of thousands of females and continues to leave negative mental and physical effects on women, Gloria Steinem said in her speech that “there is no cause on earth more important” than giving women easy access to abortions.

It’s sad that a former Playboy Bunny could have fallen this far.

Gloria: Should abortion have been available to your mom?

Of course, when SCOTUS came up with Roe v. Wade, the “coming Ice Age” was the next big thing, and in the ‘80’s, both “Greenhouse effect” and “Nuclear Winter” were competing with each other for apocalyptic anticipation until the movements coordinated and straightened out their story as well as they could.

And of course, Gloria was big on it before she came up with that rationalization. If you don’t like it, she has others.

I believe on Judgement Day that God is going to show the bloody abortionists and their purveyors the souls of all the aborted babies who now live in Heaven and where they will never enter.

Vile woman.

It’s hard to comprehend how much she’ll have to answer for, when the day comes when her soul quits her mortal body.

And yet, like the typical liberal, you expect others to do the work for you. Take a stand, kill yourself, so the burden on the planet will be lightened with your sacrifice. Gaia would be more than happy to turn your remains into compost.

Does Playboy support abortion as an editorial policy? I wouldn’t be surprised as Hefner has supported other liberal causes.

And the whole “Playboy philosophy” of a woman being a playmate and being with you just for your own gratification feeds into this.

After all, if you are into using females as a playmate, as someone to use for your own selfish gratification, the last thing you want are complications such as an unplanned pregnancy from your use of a woman for God knows what.

So I can see the Playboy philosophy of using disposable women when and how you want,would breed a desire for abortion to resolve messy entanglements, with a woman after you are done with her.

Liberals have always been willing to murder for a trendy, popular cause.

Don’t put a penis in a vagina. Unless you are raped, it can actually be avoided. No babies will be born if you don’t want a baby.

You know, those dinosaurs weren’t laying enough eggs. That is what caused that horrible global cooling.

Man, this woman is too stupid to walk among us. I’ll take the dinosaurs back.

Feminism and “women as playthings” are basically flip-sides of the same coin, and the purpose of that coin (both sides) is to erode the family so that the State can be supreme.

Ironically, I’ve already thrown in the towel with regards to that part of the culture war, on a personal level. Too many cheating women (like my ex), too many feminists. There are only a handful of decent women and most of those are taken, and those that aren’t taken there are probably 100 guys vying for them.

So, with my so-called “wife” living 1,600 miles away with her “boyfriend”(the 4th guy she cheated with) , I’m content to date 8 women (as of this week) instead of being married to one woman who cheats.

But I am not going to cause someone to get an “abortion” unlike the irresponsible people, because I am careful. Heck, during my separation, I’ve killed more Trojans than Achilles.

forcing women to have children they would not on their own choose to have…”
___________________________________

another bloody silly statement...

those females did choose all on their own to have sex ...

unless they were raped...

and she didn’t say they were...

maybe some sex education which includes basic biology instead of application of a condom as the leading sub-topic would be appropriate...

would not “reproductive rights” really mean the right to decide to abstain from sex to avoid the dreaded reproduction ???

If a child plays in the street can we get angry because he is hit by a car ???
