re: "Will We Choose the Right Side of History?" (The New York Times, October 14, 2020)
The sad American obsession with abortion, confounded by adherence to Middle Eastern myths that preach despotism over democracy, is reflected in the "pro-life" slogan, which is more honestly stated as "anti-person".
And too many who deem themselves righteous still obsess compulsively on dictating that all obey their dogma to be pro-life and anti-person.
Such a sad failure to respect not only democratic principle, but the moral progress that humankind has made in the 2,500 years and more since a mythic being dictatorially commanded his blindly faithful servant to slavishly sacrifice his own son, an actual human person, on the bonfire of His supreme vanities.
