Being a Feminist (3)


08 Nov

I don’t consider abortion to be the line in the sand for feminism because I accept that some people honestly believe its murder. I don’t feel that way, but I can understand why they do. Government does not have the right to legislate morality, but this is one area where legality and morality form a gray area.

Like Hillary Clinton, I believe abortion should be safe, legal, and rare. I never want to tell a woman she has to maintain a pregnancy that might kill her or that she has to carry a non-viable fetus to term. That is immoral.

On being a humanist

I respect your beliefs, and occasionally am even jealous of your faith. It is not that I don’t believe in God; it is not that I don’t know what to believe; it is that I find it all strictly academic and irrelevant to life here and now.

There are wonderful people of all religions serving others, but at the same time, humanity has spent way too many years killing each other over what happens when we die.

My desire is to make this world, this life, as good as it can be for everyone. I’ll face what happens after, after.
