Within the
framework of our society we are entitled to our own views on life, morality and
God, at least until our government becomes so big as to regulate what we can or
can’t think. At the end of the day we
all have to live with our choices and be prepared for any judgment after our
death. The one thing I would ask for is
a consistent and congruent view from others.
If you believe
in what is broadly stated as women’s rights, or the woman’s ability to choose
to abort a fetus then for Pete’s sake don’t get all teary eyed when some
homeless dog or cat is euthanized. Don’t
stride self-righteously into the debate on animal protective needs as if you are
morally outraged that such things can be allowed to happen.
When you
choose to support the destruction of a viable fetus and then claim animals need
our protection you show you have not thought through the moral issues or you
are incapable of establishing a consistent and congruent set of principles
necessary to keep society viable.
If you want to
be Pro-Choice then be pro-choice. Why
shouldn’t the guy who wants to use kittens as bait for shark fishing have the
same ability to choose what should happen to something in his care? What is the difference? Neither the kitten nor the fetus has a voice
in the decision. Yet when someone argues
for the fetus you get all uppity about women’s rights! What about shark fisherman’s rights? I have a very hard time with this outrage over
animal abuse or animal euthanasia from women who claim to be pro-choice.
