This is timely

Arise then...women of this day!
Arise, all women who have hearts!
Whether your baptism be of water or of tears!
Say firmly:
"We will not have questions answered by irrelevant agencies,
our husbands will not come to us, reeking with carnage,
for caresses and applause.
Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn
all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience.
We, the women of one country,
will be too tender of those of another country
to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs."

From the voice of a devastated Earth a voice goes up with
our own. It says: "Disarm! Disarm!
The sword of murder is not the balance of justice."
Blood does not wipe our dishonor,
nor violence indicate possession.
As men have often forsaken the plough and the anvil at the summons of war, let women now
leave all that may be left of home for a great and earnest day of counsel.
Let them meet first, as women, to bewail and commemorate the dead.
Let them solemnly take counsel with each other as to the means whereby
the great human family can live in peace...
each bearing after his own time the sacred impress, not of Caesar, but of God -
In the name of womanhood and humanity, I earnestly ask
that a general congress of women without limit of nationality,
may be appointed and held at someplace deemed most convenient and
the earliest period consistent with its objects,
to promote the alliance of the different nationalities,
the amicable settlement of international questions,
the great and general interests of peace.

The word for the day

the word for the day is hippocrate. i say only abstinence works but obviously it doesn’t. It is absolutely correct we should not hold the child accountable- we should hold the parent accountable for giving her child the incorrect info. IN this day and age there is no excuse -”oops” I had a baby? Shame on them. Advising young adults on how to use condems is not abortion. It is wise and realistic.And how is it not ok to have an abortion, but is is ok to take fertility drugs and create 20 “spare” embryo that are “discarded”. Hippocrates.

ZZZzzzzzzz
