A country that went into space then makes going just about anywhere a crime now.
lol
Was that the Apollo mission that went south?
Thanks for posting. To think the pinnacle of our achievement was 50 years ago.
That last moon trip was in December 1972, and Roe v Wade was decided the next month. Humans have not left earth orbit in almost 50 years. I’m certain that our sentence for the sin of nationwide, legal abortion for any reason is suppression of our technological advancements and reach into space. Maybe it was Charles Krauthammer who said we’ve turned inward to the instant gratification of smart phones and instant communication as opposed to outward toward space. (Yes, I know not all technological achievement is stunted.) It’s a theme in science fiction, that dangerous civilizations are kept in check. But just as some challenged people such as Down’s Syndrome and autistic individuals have tremendous artistic or mathematical abilities, maybe because they are less capable of sin, I think humanity is intellectually suppressed by sin.
If abortion goes back to the states, expect remarkable advances in material synthesis, R&D in biology and physics, etc. That state will be rewarded by the equivalent of a solid gold meteorite landing in their collective back yard.
