Roe v Wade Has Fallen (For Now)

 


Roe v. Wade has fallen. 

To accomplish this, Christians have voted for monsters. For years. And no, that is not mere hyperbole. Roy Moore is a monster. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a monster. Trump is a monster.

To get this done, they've very nearly thrown away our entire democratic republic. They undoubtedly will try to do so again.

All in the misguided effort to bludgeon liberals back to God. Or, so they believe.

Some people actually dare to act surprised by this outcome. Despite people issuing warning bells for years. In spite of Christian Dominionists being brazen about this being their tactic for decades. In spite of a leaked Supreme Court memo stating the Justices' intentions only months ago.

Liberals did not perceive anything like a real threat to their reproductive rights - until it was too late. Somehow, especially during their Berniecrat disappointments, when some of them went all gung-ho for Jill Stein, they just didn't believe this could ever be possible.

What did YOU think "burn it all down" meant?

So what's my take on all this?

For starters, this is the death of Christianity. I predicted so back in 2018, and I predict so again. Christians have gambled everything on this one throw - and won. But they mortgaged their future to do it - and the bills have come due. They are about to pay, and pay dearly, for this mistake.

Nothing pisses off Liberals quite like being too late to prevent a political disaster. Leftists love to swim after the ship long after its sailed, and they've become quite good at such swimming. This time, they will be swimming strong come November, and that's a fact. Were gas prices not so high, I might predict a Democratic sweep of the 2022 midterms. As it is, that will only happen if Russia's war in Ukraine ends very soon, and that's not likely to happen unless the U.S. intervenes.

But there is a silver lining to this dark cloud. As I've predicted in the past, there will come a prohibition moment. The United States will reverse its decision on this, either through legislation, Constitutional Amendment, or both. We've seen this happen before in Ireland. When abortion restrictions fell in that country, there was cheering in the streets!

It will happen here, too. And when it does, Christianity will never, ever rise again.

No, Christianity is not yet dead. But it lies gasping. On the way to its last breath, with the majority of Americans no longer attending church, it has fired off one last shot that will reverberate for many years after they have all gone the way of Greco-Roman Paganism. We will suffer because of this development for a long time. Coat-hanger abortions and back-alley abortions will make a comeback.

Christians may even decide to return to the old bread-and-butter issues that once made it great. Things like feeding the hungry, curing the sick, clothing the naked, helping the poor... You know, the things Jesus would have wanted. Remember those? Christians used to give a shit about all that.

So yes, we lost one. But NEVER give up! This is NOT over!
