Not Your Body

As much as we falsely believe that police and the church (religion) are two separate entities we must realize that politics and religion are somehow always intertwined, the use and excuse of relation are what many hide behind and use as their excuse for their doings. No bigger monster is created between politics and religion when the topic of abortion is brought to the table. Political representation is made up of predominantly white males. All the power goes to the white males who deem themselves in power and control. A man in charge of a woman’s uterus, a man calling the shots, a man who thinks he has a sole opinion on what a woman can and can’t do with her body, her very own existence. Then we have Christians, Catholics, whatever religion they are blasting on and on how abortion is bad and sin, how women are demons and whatnot. You even have doctors who are against abortion. The ones who not only take an oath to aid their patients but to not disclose this person’s information. So if a woman goes to her doctor to weigh her options and then has a doctor preaching blasphemy for her inquiring about an abortion. But then there is the topic of women no longer even having the option of getting a safe abortion because of lawmakers. 

First, there are way bigger and important issues to be discussed and fixed, for example, all the migrants stuck in texas jails, families being kept apart, and more and more mistreatment of them, more and more of them, one day there and the other gone missing. But no lawmakers let weigh in on a topic that has nothing to do with you, something that was instituted for women. Don’t even dare bring religion into this because if you are saying abortion is a sin and blasphemy how about we go over all the things that are wrong about your religion. Let’s talk about how you hide behind religion to make yourself powerful but behind closed doors, you are not this mighty religious follower you are a hypocrite.

A woman should be allowed to have the option of abortion. Again, it is her body and her choice. Women will find a way to obtain an abortion. It is better for them to have a safe resource for them to do so. It is no easy decision but it is not yours to make it on their own. We don’t know their stories, we don’t know their reason, and we don’t need to because, at the end of the day, it is their body and their choice.
