I did not put the words, “War on Women” in
the title because if I saw such a title, I would assume it was a stupid
article. Labeling the defense of life in
the womb and religious freedom as a war on women is beyond irritating.

It seems that rabid pro-abortion
groups don’t have a clue what a war on women looks like. Why are they not rising
up in a fury over the degradation of women in Middle Eastern countries where
genital mutilation, forced marriages and judicial and educational inequality
for women is just the tip of the iceberg?

Where was the outcry when the United Nations announced that an estimated 200 million girls are
missing from the world due killing girl babies, now known as “gendercide”? Why
are these supposed pro-women voices not getting behind the documentary, It’s A Girl? Take three minutes to
watch this trailer and digest how readily girl babies are killed for the crime
of being female.

Andwhere the abortion-loving, contraception-pushing radicals when Planned
Parenthood was caught on tape, not once but several times, encouraging the
abortion of babies because the mother didn’t want a girl? They have been silent on such atrocities
because love of women is not their motivation, but rather a hatred of Catholic
teaching that says abortion and forcing people to go against their moral
consciences is wrong.
Yet, there is some truth in the
twisted label of a War on Women. This
is war—spiritual warfare! And
God-fearing Christians are all prisoners of this war. We accept such a position
willingly as St. Paul did when taken prisoner. “For this reason I, Paul, the
prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles…” (Eph. 3:1).

The real war on women is being waged
by the culture, and like-minded men are our comrades and fellow prisoners. But
in reality, it is we who are free
while the anti-life, anti-religious freedom camp does not understand the true
freedom that comes from obeying God’s laws.

“For
the slave called in the Lord is a freed person in the Lord, just as the free
person who has been called is a slave of Christ” (1 Cor. 7:22). We, the slaves of Christ are
free, and the warriors against the teachings of Christ are enslaved.

The issue of this supposed War on
Women is access to contraception and drugs that induce abortions by forcing
organizations to pay for them regardless of religious
values. David Green, a Christian founder and CEO of the 500-store Hobby Lobby chain, filed a lawsuit
against the Obama administration’s rule requiring employers to provide
abortion-inducing drugs coverage in health care insurance plans.

Green
is quoted in Human
Events as stating, “By being required to make a choice between sacrificing
our faith or paying millions of dollars in fines, we essentially must choose
which poison pill to swallow. We simply cannot abandon our religious beliefs to
comply with this mandate.” Green is the first non-Catholic to join the twenty-six other separate lawsuits
opposing the HHS rule through the courts. That is what courage under fire looks like.

Planned
Parenthood is leading the accusation that anti-abortion Republicans are waging
war. For the sake of not over-using the word “stupid” let’s call this one
ignorant. There are a greater number of women on the
other side of this issue. The 2012 Gallup Poll revealed 2% more women are
prolife over prochoice: 46% vs. 44%. When it comes to partial birth abortion,
62% want to see that barbaric procedure banned.

As
far as demanding abortion and contraception, both are really anti-women, but the liberal view is too blind to see. Men in our society are free to be less
responsible to the women they impregnate. After all, the women could have been
using contraception and can use abortion as after-the-fact birth control. With
that mindset, why should a man be burdened with a child when he was in it just
for the sex not the fatherhood?

Women
are getting hurt, not helped, through contraception and abortion. They are becoming sterile through sexually transmitted diseases, getting used for their bodies, and becoming the walking
wounded when after the first year after abortion, their suicide risk is six times higher than
the average. But the Catholic Church and
those who follow its teaching are not forcing this truth and freedom on
anyone. We are just proclaiming it and don’t want to be forced to pay for the intrinsic evils that
hurt individuals and societies.

Half
the babies aborted would have been future women if given the chance to be born. It’s war indeed, but not just on women or men but on all society. In the end, we can fight in the courts, wage a
war with words and vote our consciences, but that is just the ground
strategy. Spiritual battles are won by
the power of the Holy Spirit and the ammunition is prayer and fasting for the strength to stand “The
Test of Fire”.

Here is a comment from Joan. She could not get it to post and asked me to put it up for her: Allan Guttmacher, former president of Planned Parenthood was asked, “What makes abortion so secure in America?” He answered in two words: “Sex education.”
Atheist Madelyn Murray O’Hare wrote: “The issue of abortion is a red herring. … The fight is over sex education, including information on birth control.”

Public schools long ago booted Christ out of the classroom. No different are the parochial schools in every diocese of the U S. Sexualized catechetics in U S Bishops’s schools and CCD classes keeps the abortion industry alive. These men in black who are responsible for the schools in their diocese sanction the ruining of young minds and every dollar put into the basket by those in the pews at Masses supports our youth being raised as barbarians.
See motherswatch.net part 1 and 2 on the curriculum approved by bishops: “Growing In Love”.
Decree of March 21, 1931, Congregation of the Holy office forbidding sex education:
Question: May the method called ‘sex education’ or even‘sex initiation’ be approved?
Answer: “No. In the education of youth the method to be followed is that hitherto observed by the Church and the Saints as recommended by His Holiness the Pope in the Encyclical dealing with the Christian Education of Youth, (Divini Illius Magistri) promulgated December 31, 1929…”
Bishops of the U S issued a Statement of November 17, 1950 regarding the role of parents in the instruction of children on matters relating to sex……”We protest in the strongest possible terms against the introduction of sex instruction into the school!!” (their emphasis not mine)
Pope Pius XII, Address to the French Fathers and Families on September 18, 1951 on the matter of sex initiation and propaganda, “……..procreation and education of children are the serious duties of married couples……Fathers of families.. Unite and to stop and curtail these movements…..”
Pope Pius XII in his address of April 13, 1953, states that personal sex instruction of children and youth in the home should place special stress “upon self mastery and religious training.”

“Sex Education The Final Plague”
Now, why are ‘claimed Catholics’ supporting the parochial schools who are demoralizing our youth? Men should combat men who are destroying our youth. Where are the men who will crusade for the defense of our youth?
