Today they want to force birth. What comes next?


 

First Amendment
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

If you want to defend your rights to decide for yourself what you believe or how you use your freedom, there it is!

The so called "pro-life" folks are phony as hell, hiding behind the title while they prove they are only pro-birth. They seem to think they have the right to demand what they believe removes the rights of everyone else to decide on their own what they choose to believe.

We can debate the religious aspect and get absolutely nowhere because apparently they have not read the entirety of the Bible, or they would see clearly that the right to decide for ourselves with our own freewill was a God given right and each of us will have to account for ourselves, if we believe in God.

Since the 1st Amendment to the Constitution gives us that right as well, then their "moral values" apply only to themselves. 

So why are they provided with the power to dictate to anyone else how they should live their own lives? Why would the Supreme Court, who openly support the Constitution, be allowed to subvert it?

These same folks demanded their right to make their own choices with their own healthcare regarding the pandemic. They didn't want to be forced to wear a mask, yet have no problem telling others they have to give birth?

Set aside talk about how they want a victim of rape or incest to give birth. Set aside the fact that they want to force a woman to give birth even if the pregnancy will kill her, and probably what has not been born yet.

Today they want to force birth. Tomorrow they may want to remove the right to use birth control. Remove the right to have tubes tied. Remove the right of a man to choose to have a vasectomy. They may want to remove the medical assistance to become pregnant because a couple wants children because they say it is playing God.

Every right under the Constitution is on the line if they are allowed to demand that everyone else in this country obey their moral thoughts while it is repulsive to most of us because most of us value the lives of the living above the unborn.

UPDATE
If you think that the pro-birth crowd is how all Christians feel, it isn't.

Here are some more from PEW Research
On the other side of the debate, a number of religious groups, including the United Church of Christ, the Unitarian Universalist Association and the two largest American Jewish movements – Reform and Conservative Judaism – favor a woman’s right to have an abortion with few or no exceptions.

Many of the nation’s largest mainline Protestant denominations – including the Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and the Methodists – also support abortion rights, although several of these churches temper this support with the call for some limits on when a woman can terminate her pregnancy. For instance, while the Episcopal Church opposes statutory limits on abortion, it teaches that “it should be used only in extreme situations.”

Moral Mortal sarcasm to ponder




"Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an automobile." - Billy Sunday.

Parents and the truth


A woman posted on social media that her kids were always lying and she had to send them to their rooms as punishment. I was curious and decided to look up her page. She had two kids, claimed to be a Christian and that was why she "tried to give her kids a sense of morals. And then I saw it! She had an image that said "Trump Won" and coffee squirted out of my mouth and nose. 

Considering everything that came with that lie and the liars who spread it, anyone still believing any of the liars who have been caught lying, need a reality check before they expect their kids to have morals or value truth enough to even know why they were punished by a parent who valued a lie so much, she spend it out.

Here are the facts:


Just days after the Jan. 6 riot, House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy told a fellow Republican lawmaker that he would recommend to then-President Donald Trump that he resign, according to audio of a call shared with MSNBC and aired Thursday night. The Morning Joe panel discusses.

McCarthy, who made a speech about all this right after the attack on the US Capitol, along with Mitch McConnell, went on to deny what he said, and what he knew.


That wasn't enough because even after he agreed with Rep.Liz Cheney in the recording above, he condemned her, sought to have her removed from her committees and pushed to have the GOP remove her from the party. Only a few of the Republicans members elected to represent their states, honored their oath of office.

What makes all this worse is, while they claimed the election was stolen from Trump, none of them questioned their own election results.

The fact is, there was no evidence to what any of them were saying. The claims were continually rejected by court after court because courts operate on evidence and not false claims that have no basis in facts.

The fact is, the majority of the elected GOP members didn't honor their duty to seek the truth and hold the President accountable. He was impeached twice by the House, but the Senate refused to do their duty and actually follow evidence.

So, if your kids are lying and you punish them by sending them to their rooms, maybe you should set an example and let them send you to your room for lying in front of them while calling everyone else a liar. It will let them know what your actual values are and teach them what morality really is!



Moral Mortal Witch Wisdom

I am getting old enough to retire. I have decided that this site will be changing. It is time for me to just kick back and turn this into something I want to do for myself.

Starting a business during a pandemic was not the brightest idea I ever had, but at least it wasn't the worst one.

It is something I wanted to do all my life. I figured if I didn't try it last year, I'd never do it. I am glad that at least I tried.

Right now, I am not sure what I will turn it into but whatever it is, it will be honest. This country has had enough liars taking over social media.

Maybe the last straw for me was the attack on the Capitol, and then hearing politicians lie about what happened just because the majority of the members wanted to get to the bottom on of all of this.

All of us saw the footage as it was happening. To hear them lie and get away with it, to hear others protect the perpetrators, caused the rest of us to be wonder how things got this bad.

There are many things I think about that do not belong on the other sites I have. That said, I am not ashamed of what I think, how I feel or what I value. Above many things is the respect of the truth. Being a Christian, even a churchless one, has formed my values.

I am so tired of so many people claiming to be "Christian" but fail to follow a single thing Christ said about how to treat other people.

I discovered how much the false Christians have hurt the faith I have always have by what they do and how they live their lives.  I wrote three new books about how miracles happen and how imperfect people share their love of God to help others. No matter how hard I tried to promote the books, people I know will not read them because they have been turned off by others claiming to be Christian, yet proving they are liars.

This deeply hurt me, because these are people who actually know me but even they will not read read what I wrote. Most of them either deal with PTSD or know someone struggling, yet they will not even attempt to read them.

Today is the day I change this site for what I want it to be. It will be about all the values I grew up with and grew into. There will be political posts. I am an Independent, as I have been for over twenty years, so don't expect anything other than a centrist point of view. There will be posts on faith, and yes, I will post on the audacity of false Christians because I am tired of people thinking that is what the faith has turned into. 

If you are not a deli-Christian, you may enjoy reading someone else write what you are already thinking.

What is a deli-Christian? They pick and choose the parts of the Bible that easy for them to digest and suit their tastes. Like ordering from a deli menu, pointing to what they want and avoiding anything that will upset their taste.

The witch image above is being called Witch Wisdom and she will appear a lot in future posts.

Here, the truth maters, so if I get something wrong, please leave a comment.

between each line of pain and glory

Moral Mortal

Kathie Costos
February 25, 2021

Do you want to be the best thing that ever happened to them? Isn't that why you got into the mental health field? You remember what they looked like the first time they came to see you. Their life was a mess and they were depressed, feeling lost and confused. They took their last bit of hope and reached out to you for help. You also know the rush you get when you see someone walk out your door for the last time, with a smile on their face. It is the one field where not having returning customers is success!

With so much competition out there, you need all the help you can get to help more people. I know that feeling. For 38 years, I dedicated my life to helping veterans and families find their way toward healing...by sending them to therapists when they were ready for more help than I could give.

Back in 1993 when I started working online, I was easy to find. Not much competition back then. The other good thing is, everyone was in the work for the right reasons. Most of us had personal connections to PTSD. We understood it, lived with it, and learned how to take back our lives from it. We passed on that knowledge we obtained the hard way to make it easier for others.

When the veteran suicide report from the Department of Veterans Affairs came out in 2012, there was a flood of people rushing to push the headline of "22 a day" when they didn't bother to read the whole report. Thousands of charities popped up and it became a billion dollar industry. The pioneers in the field, doing the work for the right reasons, we pushed out of the way.  Most of the people I knew back when we started, gave up. I almost did too but I had some support from professionals convincing me that  clearing the way toward hope was essential.

With over 600 videos, three books, thousands of articles, almost 4 decades of research, and lives saved, I want you to feel like you are the best thing that ever happened to your clients. That is why I am offering a service geared to your success story. 

I can set up a blog for you, provide posts written specifically for your work and help you reach more lives you can turn around.

Those are the results for Wounded Times
Those are the results for PTSD Patrol

Call me and let's talk about how you can help more people, like me, since I went to therapy a couple of times. My therapist was one of the best things that ever happened to me. She encouraged me to write my first book!

You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me 

I've had my share of life's ups and downs
But fate's been kind, the downs have been few
I guess you could say that I've been lucky
And I guess you could say, it's all because of you
If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever reason there might be
You'd be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
You're the best thing that ever happened to me
Oh, there have been times when the times were so hard
But somehow, some way I'd made it through
And for every moment I've spent hurting
There's been moments spent loving you
If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever reason there might be
You'd be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
You're the best thing that ever happened to me

We are here to provide proof of the power of truth

Moral Mortal
Kathie Costos
January 21, 2021

How much trouble can lies cause? They can destroy lives. We witnessed that a few weeks ago when lies caused hundreds of people to commit an armed home invasion of the People's House. As with any crime, there will be investigations and eventually trials, followed by the penalty that must be paid. In the case of sedition, it is 20 years.
Seditious Conspiracy and Federal Law: The Basics

The federal law against seditious conspiracy can be found in Title 18 of the U.S. Code (which includes treason, rebellion, and similar offenses), specifically 18 U.S.C. § 2384. According to the statutory definition of sedition, it is a crime for two or more people within the jurisdiction of the United States:
To conspire to overthrow or destroy by force the government of the United States or to level war against them;
To oppose by force the authority of the United States government; to prevent, hinder, or delay by force the execution of any law of the United States; or
To take, seize, or possess by force any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof.

 

Considering the people who are accused of doing this, provided their own evidence with pictures and videos, they have already started to pay a high price.

Family have turned them in. Neighbors have turned them in. They are being fired from their jobs. The list goes on even before they are arrested. All because they believed lies that the election was stolen and they could overturn the results.

Unlike those who provided their own evidence of their guilt, there was absolutely no evidence of anything they accused government officials of committing, That is what the law requires, and rightfully so. Otherwise, anyone can say anything about anyone and have the lies believed.

That is why Moral Mortal started. Too many people are believing lies because they do not care enough to discover if what they hear is true or not. Then in turn share the lie and others follow. Why? Because it was something they wanted to hear. It was something that supported what they wanted to believe. Then they wanted to believe the liar on anything else they had to say.

Had they invested the time spreading the lie on investigation of the validity of it, that horrible day at the US Capitol would have never happened. Terrible people use lies to gain what they seek and depend on those who follow them, to not question them.

We need no more proof of the power of lies. We are here to provide proof of the power of truth. Had any of those hundreds of people in the Capitol January 6th heard the truth before they decided to do what they did, it would have never happened. Now they realize it, it is too late.

Once you say something or write something, there is no taking it back. Someone will always have a copy of it. Isn't it time you discover what the truth is before you believe a lie?

The Temptations, Smiling Faces is still a powerful song because it reflects how harmful lies are to humans, not generations.

Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend.
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within.
Smiling faces, Smiling Faces, Sometimes they don't tell the truth.
Smiling faces, smiling faces tell lies and I got proof.
The truth is in the eye 'cause the eyes don't lie, amen.
Remember, a smile is just a frown turned upside down my friend.
So, hear me when I'm saying
Smiling faces, Smiling Faces, Sometimes they don't tell the truth.
Smiling faces, smiling faces tell lies and I got proof.
Beware. Beware of the handshake that hides the snake, 
I'm tellin' you beware of the pat on the back it just might hold you back.
Jealousy, (Jealousy) misery, (misery) envy.
I tell you you can't see behind
Smiling faces, Smiling Faces, Sometimes they don't tell the truth....
Smiling faces, smiling faces tell lies and I got proof.
Your enemy won't do you no harm, 'cause you'll know where he's comin' from;
don't let the handshake and the smile fool ya.
Take my advice I'm only tryin' to school ya.
Smiling faces, Smiling Faces, Sometimes they don't tell the truth.

When a story is only partially true

 Good example of what Moral Mortal does all the time online.....

This is being shared on Facebook. It is only partially true.

Anne Frank was born in 1929, so she would have been older but the rest is true "Desperate to escape Nazi persecution during World War II, Anne Frank’s family tried repeatedly to flee to the United States before going into hiding in 1942, according to new research published this week. However, the combination of Nazi rule, World War II bombing and American bias against accepting Jewish refugees ensured they never made it far enough through the application process."
