    I don’t understand the obsession around the world with controlling women’s bodies.

      Prior to the raise of Christianity, women were largely in charge of religious activities and controlled a lot of power. Part of the draw of Christianity was taking that power away from women.

      The abortion chaos ties itself to the Black Death when 2/3 of the human population was wiped out. Religious institutions controlled most of the power and used it to push a narrative that families should have more children. The problem is that today our population is huge and religious people don’t understand the origin of that thinking, so they keep pushing us towards over population.

        If one wanted to learn more about these things, what book(s) might one start with?

          I’d suggest taking college courses in mythology, divinity and theology, and culture politics & war.

          Book wise your going to want to look at classical philosophy with a focus on Greece. Romans 16:1 and I Corinthians 11 give a moderate perspective if you like Masoretic Text.

      It always starts with abortion rights, every time they want to control women and ban LBGTQ+. Poland is known for wanting to keep the ‘traditional family unit’ as it is and cracking down on everyone that’s different.

      Next is to take away their financial independence with the ‘stay home and take care of the children’ fase. So no way out.

      Then comes the ‘I’m the man of the house, so you do as I say or I’ll report you to the authorities’ fase. Lots of marital rapes and domestic violence in this fase…

      Then it’s the marrying out your 14 year old daughter’s to your friends to get any sort of power… Sorry I’m describing handmaid’s tale at this point. Or any fascists state…

      But I heard with the latest elections young Polish people might turn things around.
