WANNA END ABORTION? BRING BACK REAL MARRIAGE!

      It seems simple to me.  IF countries—including the United States—want to put a sever crimp in the number of abortions performed every year, traditional marriage should not only be encouraged, but held up as THE example of the best way to have children—and that is in wedlock.  Let the critics of such an action be damned!

      However, do NOT expect the ‘wizards of smart’ of the two political parties to catch my drift for three reasons: 1) BOTH Democrats and Republicans have made BIG money with the current tax structure which actually works AGAINST traditional marriage; 2) BOTH Democrats and Republicans get BIG campaign contributions (and votes) from the groups that represent BOTH the Pro-Choice (pro-murder) or Pro-Life (anti-murder) side of the street, and; 3) policies would have to be changed in order to ‘claw’ back the USA from the ranks of ‘feminized’ nations.

      We—who have done our best in the traditional marriage arena—are going to have to get back to teaching about the beauty of traditional marriage from the grassroots up—from the Scriptures.  Note that I didn’t say ‘have reached perfection’ in the traditional marriage arena.  There are some—myself including—who have had to suffer through divorce, and all that comes with it.  However, praise be unto God who does allow for second (and third) chances to get it right HIS way through HIS Word.

      While it is true that a solid majority of abortions take place among single women (at least better than 80 percent at last word) this means single women can fornicate to their hearts desire AND use their abortions as the ‘sacrament’ to prove, in their rebellion, that they “don’t need a man” AND can have the career path of their choice. 

      The ‘dirty little secret’ is that many women would rather get married, stay home, and raise children.  They’ve been ‘hard wired’ by God this way, no matter how ‘feminist’ they proclaim themselves to be.  The only thing stopping them?  A society that has grown addicted to all the money to be made off the corpses of the unborn.  IF you doubt me on this matter, I merely direct you to the holidays of Valentine’s Day, New Year’s Eve, and the months of June, July, and (in some cases) August—and those fancy ‘Bridal Shows’.  The traditional marriage industry is still making money—and has many an anxious female eyeball looking for the ‘shoes, rice, church, preacher, and husband’.  And, I might add, why did the Barbie movie do so well when it wasn’t that long ago when Barbie was protested as an ‘anti-feminist tool’?

      You guessed it!  Tradition!  Ta-dah!  Seems times are ripe for a real marriage comeback!

      It has been documented that—since 1973 to the end of Roe Vs. Wade a full one third of the abortions that have taken place are of Black children.  You and I have met young, angry Black women who revel in their singleness—with more than a few OOW (out-of-wedlock) children in tow and have been ‘sold’ the bill of goods that there are “no good men” out there. 

      Of course, these same women never want to admit that their desire to fornicate (look this word up) without restraint has taken them off the ‘traditional marriage market’ shelf and put them into the ‘hook up’ isle.  I’m not picking on young Black women; they are the ones whom the mainstream press and social media STILL hold up as the ‘majority stereotype’ of OOW births, while white women are doing the same thing!

      Bottom line?  It has been documented that one of the lowest groups for abortions is that of married women.  Seems to me that traditional marriage has made its worth known…just like the Scriptures have noted and God has stated.  More to come.
