Pot Meet Kettle

The Vatican, everyone’s favourite moral authority is once more working to ensure that we don’t keel over and bow into the temptations that come with arrogance. They’re only looking after us, and the new American presidency when they warn against using one’s power of authority to determine life or death. After all, it has the interests of the American people at heart when it warns President Obama over his decision to restore funding to Planned Parenthood and other pro-choice organizations.

One Vatican official warned against the “arrogance” of those in power who think they can decide between life and death.

Of course, it seems to me that they are the ones who are equally as arrogant since they too are determining life or death with different religious edicts. By restricting the flow of information, they too are playing ‘god’; an act of blasphemy in itself. After all, information is simply information until it is acted upon.

The stance of the Vatican stems beyond simply being anti-abortion; it’s anti-birth control, and thus, it puts birth control methods in the same category as abortions. Family planning falls into the same “sinful” category as abortion, and any birth control methods are sinful since it prevents life. Yet on the flip side of the coin, by denying access to it, it endangers a life that already exists; the life of the mother, who may very well have a child and can’t provide for another.

The Vatican is just as wrong; they too toy with the alleged “sanctity” of life with their anti-birth control policies. Hypocrites through all levels of that oppressive backwater archaic patriarch religion. Or at least in the Vatican where they are prevented from being in tune with reality and the nature of the real world, not in the land of make believe with talking frogs and little magical elves who were cute little hats.
