ESSENTIAL TO UNDERSTANDING THE ABORTION CONTROVERSY

By: Al Lemmo 1997


This page contains sections P thru Z.

SECTION: P


PAINED PARENTHOOD: An organization that originated in the Racist and Utilitarianist sects of Abortionism and is now the largest operator of Birthist Abortionite temples in the United States.

PARASITE: An animal or plant that lives on or in an organism of another species from whose body it obtains nutrients. Typically confused by the bio-ignorant with the nurturing relationship of one species for its own young.

PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION: See DILATATION AND EXTRACTION.

PEOPLE FOR THE AMERICAN WAYWARD: An organization that panders to religiphobes and attempts to limit or negate the influence of religious Americans in public life.

PERSON: A human being or other legal entity (such as a corporation) recognized by law as having rights and duties.

PERSONALLY OPPOSED: See PONTIUS PILATE POSTURE.

PERSONHOOD: The crux of the issue of prenatal child-killing. The state of possessing those qualities deemed essential to recognition and protection of the law.

PHILOSOFOOL: An individual who habitually confuses philosophical or religious beliefs for scientific knowledge such as the definition of life or the motion of the planets. See also BRAIN DEAD and NECROMYTHOLOGY.

POLITICALLY CORRECT: A term to describe the self-righteous attitude of Reformed Abortionites who believe they are morally superior due to the strength of their commitment to oppose the more generally discredited Abortionite criteria for exclusion. See also REFORMED ABORTIONISM.

PONTIUS PILATE POSTURE: The position, especially among politicians, of claiming to be personally opposed to private executions of the known innocent while refusing to use official or other personal authority to do anything to stop them. Usually also characterized by a willingness to assist in the executions out of an unstated belief that such actions are politically or otherwise advantageous.

PORNOGRAPHY: Hate literature characteristic of the Sexist sect of Abortionism. See also IMMATURE ADULT.

POSITIVISM: The philosophy that rights are bestowed by government rather than pre-existing or intrinsic. The principal philosophical premise of Abortionism.

POSTNATAL ABORTION: The killing of a person, especially a young child, after birth. Suggested usage with "prenatal abortion" to emphasize that there is no difference in killing before or after birth. See also PRENATAL ABORTION and POST PARTUM ABORTION.

POST PARTUM ABORTION: Infanticide. See also POSTNATAL ABORTION and PRENATAL ABORTION.

POTENTIAL LIFE: A ludicrous example of bio-ignorant Abortionspeak used to describe prenatal human life. A prenatal child is a potential newborn just as a newborn is a potential adult but there is nothing potential about the biological life of either.

POWER: The central organizing principle of Abortionism as identified by Orwell.

PRE-EMBRYO: A term concocted by abortionmongers and the like to further dehumanize the early term prenatal child and facilitate experimentation upon it.

PREGNANCY: A self-terminating condition of limited duration in which the prenatal child grows and develops within its mother's body to the point where it has acquired the necessary adaptations for survival in the next phase of the human life cycle.

PREGNANCY TISSUE: A euphemism favored by abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites, necrochoicers and the like to dehumanize the prenatal child in the minds of potential Birthist converts.

PRE-MORTEM EXAMINATION: Any physical exam or counseling session conducted at an abortuary prior to killing a prenatal child.

PRENATAL ABORTION: Suggested usage with "postnatal abortion" or "post partum abortion" to emphasize that there is no difference between killing before or after birth. See also POSTNATAL ABORTION and POST PARTUM ABORTION.

PRENATAL APARTHEID: The exclusion of the prenatal portion of humanity from social recognition and protection. See also DEVELOPMENTAL APARTHEID.

PRENATAL CARE: Used as a euphemism to include prenatal child-killing by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers and necrochoicers. Such usage is an example of a necronym and a BIG LIE.

PRENATAL CHILD: A suggested term for usage in preference to the scientifically correct but sterile and dehumanizing terms "embryo" and "fetus" in most contexts.

PRENATAL HOSTAGE TAKING: The use of the lives of prenatal children as a bargaining chip in negotiations over other items on the agenda of necrochoicers.

PRENATE: A suggested single word term for the prenatal child to include both the embryo and fetus. Its usage is intended to be more familiar due to common usage of the term "neonate", and less coldly scientific.

PRENATICIDE: A suggested single word term for prenatal child-killing to replace the more euphemistic "abortion". It has the advantages of identifying what is destroyed in more familiar and concise language while linking it with the act of killing. See also COMMIT ABORTION.

PRIVACY: Used as a euphemism and necronym for prenatal child-killing by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers and necrochoicers.

PRO-CHOICE: The crowning jewel of Birthist Abortionite euphemisms consisting of two positive terms for the philosophy and action of killing the most helpless and innocent of human beings. Frequently used as a mantra by its mindless devotees, the term neatly evades the fact that the only thing at issue is the nature of the choice and implicitly legitimizes the choice before any discussion can even begin. Immensely popular among necropimps for its effectiveness against the unconverted.

PRODUCTS OF CONCEPTION: A euphemism favored by abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites, necrochoicers and the like to dehumanize prenatal children in the minds of potential Birthist converts. All human beings are actually products of conception.

PROJECTION: In psychology, the act of ascribing to someone or something else one's own attitudes, thoughts, traits, etc. Typical of Abortionites who accuse their opponents of being hateful, discriminatory, controlling or opposed to freedom.

PRO-LIFER: An individual who believes in the sanctity of human life in all its stages and who is willing to defend it rather than stand idly by and permit human life to be destroyed.

PROPORTIONALITY: Also known as proportionability. A necessary condition for waging war under the Just War Theory and international law which require that the use of military force be in proportion to the desired objective in order to limit destruction of life and property. Commonly violated by analogy in the war on prenatal children whose destruction is all out of proportion to the objectives usually being sought.

PROSTAGLANDIN: A hormone used to induce some abortions by injection into the amniotic sac. This causes violent labor and premature birth. The abortionist first injects a toxin to assure that the child is not born alive.


SECTION: Q


QUALITY OF LIFE: One of the criteria for exclusion from the human community by the Utilitarianists or related sects of Abortionism.

QUICKENING: The point during pregnancy at which the movements of the prenatal child can be felt by the mother. Used during earlier times, when scientific knowledge of prenatal life was less complete, to mark the time after which prenatal child-killing would no longer be permitted.


SECTION: R


RACIST: An individual who believes in aborting the rights of others, sometimes to the point of justifying their destruction, on the basis of their race or ethnic identity. A member of the Racist sect of Abortionism.

RAPE: The choice of forcing sexual intercourse upon another person. The trump card of abortionmongers. A wrong used repeatedly with great success to justify the additional wrong of child-killing when the only reason to oppose it, the nature of the prenatal child, has not changed in the least. Used to appeal to the best, most compassionate instincts in people to produce the worst possible reaction. See also WEDGE ISSUE.

RCAR: Renegade Coven of Abortionite Reprobates. An organization devoted to necropimping from religious perspectives. Masters at Orwellian reality control with particular emphasis on the history of Judaism and Christianity.

REALITY CONTROL: A technique identified by Orwell in which perceptions of the present and directions for the future are controlled by those who have the power to manipulate perceptions of the past. Expressed in the slogan from the novel "1984": "Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past". Actively practiced by necrochoicers in all institutional settings where they may exert influence.

REFORMED ABORTIONISM: A branch of Abortionism which emphatically rejects certain Abortionite criteria such as race and sex which have been generally rejected by society at large. Their Abortionite roots are evident in their efforts to marginalize and dehumanize their opponents and abort their fundamental rights. The predominant Abortionite sect of Reformed Abortionism is the Birthists. See also POLITICALLY CORRECT.

RELIGIOUS CLEANSING: The deliberate exclusion of persons with religious principles or motivations from public policy forums and every other possible aspect of public life.

RELIGIOUS ISSUE: A favorite Big Lie of Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers and necrochoicers to portray the human rights issue of prenatal child-killing as a religious matter to confuse or hide it behind common misunderstandings of the First Amendment.

RELIGIOUS LEFT: Individuals who subvert divine authority by claiming a divinely ordained personal freedom of conscience to promote an Abortionite agenda. Includes many Abortionites, especially of the Birthist and Utilitarianist sects, who masquerade as Christians to more effectively necropimp. See also FREE THINKER.

RELIGIOUS RIGHT: A derogatory label applied by abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites, necrochoicers and the like to their pro-life opponents to depict them as out of touch, extreme, fanatical, authoritarian and dangerous to personal liberties.

RELIGIPHOBIA: The inner terror experienced at the thought that one's actions might be influenced by some religious belief or principle or that public policy might be affected by the same.

REPRODUCTION: A necessary function for any living thing to survive as a species, often being possible only during some portion of the organism's life cycle. Typically denied by bio-ignorant Birthists as having occurred until after birth.

REPRODUCTIVE CLEANSING: A term used to call to mind its related and equally reprehensible policy, ethnic cleansing. The cleaning up of the messy aftermath of reproductive actions, usually by vacuuming the victims out of their residence in pieces.

REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM: A euphemism and necronym used by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers, necrochoicers and the like to refer to prenatal child-killing. True reproductive freedom is exercised before reproduction occurs. After conception, reproduction is an accomplished fact.

REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH: Still another euphemism used by Birthists, abortionmongers, necrochoicers, etc. to include the practice of prenatal child-killing. See also REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM.

REPRODUCTIVE RACKETEERING: A suggested phrase to describe the business of processing prenatal children for disposal or spare parts.

REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS: A euphemism concocted by abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites, necrochoicers and the like to describe prenatal child-killing. See also REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM.

RESCUE: A coordinated action of civil obedience by pro-lifers to shut down a Birthist Abortionite temple and/or intercept the intended recipients of the Abortionite sacraments and prevent their further indoctrination in the cult. See also CIVIL OBEDIENCE and CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE.

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTURE: A future euphemism to describe the coerced suicides or euthanizing of those who would otherwise irresponsibly burden their families or society at large with their continued support.

RESPONSIBILITY DYSFUNCTION: The failure to attribute accountability for actions to individuals, usually burying it in some group. Often also characterized by a willingness to assume within the group the responsibility for many destructive behaviors while absolving individuals of personal culpability. Frequently also characterized by a willingness to punish the innocent, in particular prenatal children, for the actions of others.

RESPONSIBILITY TRANSFER: The act of shifting responsibility for one's actions to other parties by default or direct action. Applicable to the care of children conceived by irresponsible parents, support of such parents by the taxpayers or others, or the forcing of such children to pay for the actions of irresponsible parents with their lives.

ROE V. WADE: An act of tyranny committed by judicial activists on the United States Supreme Court in 1973 in which the premise of the nation, that we are endowed by our Creator with an inalienable right to life, was struck down and repudiated. The act violated numerous principles of law, morality and logic and destroyed the nation's duly enacted state laws that protected prenatal human life, creating in their stead a state of anarchy with regard to protecting prenatal human life.

RU486: A human pesticide used to chemically eliminate unwanted human life. An agent of chemical warfare whose use violates international law prohibiting this practice.


SECTION: S


SADISTICIAN: A devout Birthist Abortionite who is capable of justifying the deliberate killing of unlimited numbers of prenatal children at all stages of development and by any means if even the slightest degree of increased statistical risk to the mother can be demonstrated, even in a situation where both would have a very high probability of survival. Such sadistical analysis depends upon the Abortionite trait of attaching absolutely no value to the target population.

SAFE ABORTION: An oxymoron used by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers, necrochoicers and the like to describe prenatal child-killing under pseudo-medical auspices. Virtually every abortion is intended to kill the prenatal child and can hardly be described as "safe".

SALTING OUT: Also known as salt poisoning. A technique for late term prenatal child-killing in which a portion of the amniotic fluid is replaced by a caustic salt solution via a needle inserted through the mother's abdomen. The child writhes in agony as it is slowly poisoned and is expelled about a day later, hopefully (on the part of the abortionist) after it is dead.

SANCTITY OF LIFE: The underlying ethic of all American law before it was destroyed by Roe v. Wade in 1973. One of the basic assumptions of civilization which holds that human life is made in the image and likeness of God and is therefore sacred and may not be violated.

SATANIC VERSES: The United States Supreme Court's written opinions sanctioning prenatal child-killing, especially Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. Also, any other writings sanctioning this practice.

SCHMO CHOICE: A choice for fools, especially Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers, necrochoicers, the willfully bio-ignorant, morally retarded, ethically dysfunctional and intellectually slothful individuals who make apologies for prenatal child-killing.

SELECTIVE REDUCTION: A euphemism for a prenatal child-killing procedure in which only some of the prenatal children present in a multiple pregnancy are destroyed.

SELF-AWARENESS: A favorite criterion of philosofools and other bio-ignoramuses for their definition of life. Totally incapable of being quantified or even detected, it is as dangerous and potentially deadly a criterion for postnatal people as it is for prenatal children. As such, it is a perfect criterion for necrochoicers of every kind.

SENTIENCE: The capacity for feeling, perceiving or sensing, the lack of which is the exclusionary criterion of the Sentiencist sect of Abortionism.

SENTIENCIST: A member of the Sentiencist sect of Abortionism who believes in aborting the rights of others on the basis of whether or not they possess sentience, often to the point of justifying their deliberate destruction. This sect has the unusual characteristic of including non-human species within the community that is or should be recognized as having rights and protection under law. Of or pertaining to the Sentiencist sect. See also ANIMALIST.

SEX EDUCATION: An educational program or process purported to convey value-neutral information about human biology and other aspects of human sexuality. Frequently used as a vehicle to convey an assortment of values, attitudes, and moral and political judgements.

SEXIST: An individual who believes in aborting the rights of others, sometimes to the point of justifying their destruction, on the basis of their sex. A member of the Sexist sect of Abortionism.

SEXUALLY ACTIVE: A euphemism to describe individuals who are promiscuous or otherwise engaged in sexual relationships outside the iInstitution of marriage.

SINGLE ISSUE: A term applied by abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites and necrochoicers to belittle the voting behavior of pro-lifers who regard any necrochoicer as unfit for public office at any level. Curiously never applied by media necropimps to those who speak of "jobs, jobs and jobs", "the economy, stupid" or other matters that can make all the difference to voters of particular constituencies.

SLAVERAID: An hypothetical government program that might have been enacted prior to the Civil War to secure the right of poor whites to own black slaves. It can only be imagined what effect this might have had on the course of history by further entrenching and legitimizing slavery. Suggested usage to compare with Medicaid funding of prenatal child-killing.

SLAVERY: An outdated Abortionite sacrament, primarily practiced by the Racist sect in the United States. The choice of holding other human beings in a condition of involuntary servitude.

SLIPPERY SLOPE: A metaphorical moral slide which a society enters upon when it begins to compromise the sanctity of human life, the basic tenet of civilization, and finds it more and more difficult to restrain the expansion of the conditions for the destruction of human life. See also ABORTIONITE CLIFF.

SOUL: The animating force or spiritual or moral nature of a human being in accordance with various theological systems.

STREET SMART: Stupid. Involved in destructive and often criminal activities such as illicit drugs or sex. A prime example of oppspeak.

SPECIESIST: A term used by Animalists to describe people who believe that human beings have dominion over all other species and may make use of them as they see fit. Used derogatorily with moral righteousness to convey disapproval of such discrimination. Presumably, all animals are speciesists since they must consume other species as food.

SUICIDE: The choice of ending one's own life.

SYMBIOSIS: The living together of dissimilar organisms, especially when this association is mutually beneficial. Adamantly denied by bio-ignoramuses whose ludicrous definition of biological life requires total independence of an organism for it to be considered alive in order to justify prenatal child-killing. See also COMMENSALISM, DEPENDENCE, CULTIVATED IGNORANCE and BIO-IGNORANCE.


SECTION: T


TERMINATE A PREGNANCY: A euphemism popular among abortionmongers, Birthist Abortionites, necrochoicers and the like to describe the poisoning or live dismemberment of prenatal children. The natural termination of a pregnancy is known as childbirth.

THOUGHT POLICE: A fictional law enforcement agency in Orwell's novel "1984" which guarded the nation's thoughts. Used derogatorily today against opponents by all sides of many issues. Necropimps in the national information media have been most effective in this role.

TOXIC SHAME: The belief by an individual that he or she is seriously flawed or inadequate as popularized by psychologist John Bradshaw. Rampant among bogus feminists who believe that women are seriously flawed in that they can become pregnant and must be enabled to become unpregnant at will to more closely resemble men.


SECTION: U


ULTRASOUND: High frequency sound waves used to visualize prenatal children in real time for medical diagnostic purposes. Opposed by abortionmongers as a means to dissuade women from having their prenatal children destroyed. Sometimes used as part of a search and destroy policy to commit femicide or other gender cleansing or as part of some other prenatal child-killing program.

UNNATURAL LAW: Any law of human origin that fails to recognize the humanity of any portion of the human race or sanctions the destruction of any part of the human population in preference to or by another.

UNNATURAL SELECTION: The deliberate destruction of human life for less than compelling reasons, especially when committed by a mother against her own child.

UTERINE CONTENTS: A euphemism used by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers, necrochoicers and the like to dehumanize the prenatal child and make killing it easier to rationalize.

UTILITARIANIST: An individual who believes in aborting the rights of others, sometimes to the point of justifying their destruction, on the basis of their utility or social usefulness. A member of the Utilitarianist sect of Abortionism. See also ABLE-IST and FUNCTIONALIST.

UTILITY OF LIFE: A societal operating principle that holds that human life has value only to the extent that it is or has the capability of becoming socially useful. Adopted by some European nations beginning in the 1920's with disastrous results. A competing ethic to the sanctity of human life. See also SANCTITY OF LIFE.


SECTION: V


VIABILITY: A term meaning ability to live or continue living in a particular habitat or under a given set of environmental conditions such as aquatic, terrestrial, intra-uterine, tropical, temperate or arctic. All living organisms possess viability in particular habitats or environments and may adapt themselves in the natural course of their life cycles to attain viability in other habitats or environments. Viability has been incorporated into Abortionspeak by Birthist Abortionites, abortionmongers and necrochoicers to insinuate that prenatal children are somehow not alive or not yet fully human when they are perfectly viable in their mother's womb. Suggested alternatives to this misnomer are "intra-uterine viability" and "extra-uterine viability".

VIOLENCE: Injurious use of physical force. A favored description of pro-life activities by necropimps to accomplish character assassination against the pro-lifers. The violence of prenatal child-killing is never described as such.


SECTION: W


WALL OF SEPARATION: A much misused metaphor for the division between church and state. Originally used to express the protection of the church from the power of the state, it has been corrupted by Evangelical Pagans to mean the isolation of public matters from any religious influence. It can also be used to describe the division between civilization and barbarianism, the former premised on the assumption of human rights being intrinsic with human life, and the latter based on might makes right. The first priority of any Abortionite missionary campaign is to breach this wall.

WANTEDNESS: One of the most cherished criteria Birthist Abortionites cling to for granting or denying prenatal children the right to live. The incessant delivery of the message that human life is valued only insofar as it is wanted by those in power has played no small part in the alienation, anger, hopelessness and rebellion of many who feel very much unwanted. This, combined with the worship of choice, has fed many social ills such as crime and suicide but has been studiously ignored by the necromedia.

WAR IS PEACE: A slogan of the totalitarian party of George Orwell's "1984" which expresses a guiding principle of all Abortionites. Every Abortionite believes that waging war on the target populations particular to his or her sect will constitute or bring about some vision of peace. The slogan is a deliberate exercise in doublethink, a skill developed by all mature Abortionites.

WEDGE ISSUE: An otherwise legitimate concern used by Abortionites as a cynical ploy to divide people from each other to facilitate the aborting of the target population's fundamental human rights. Historically used by Racist Abortionites, examples being unemployment and immigration, more recent applications by Birthist Abortionites have focussed on the so-called hard cases.

WHIM: The ultimate rationale for prenatal child-killing. It boils down to "I want it (the right to kill prenatal children), therefore I should have it". It is might makes right, the essence of Abortionism. Often expressed in words similar to "I just think ..." due to the inability to articulate any credible rationale.

WHO DECIDES: A concise summary of Abortionite philosophy, sometimes used as a mantra, expressing the belief that the abortion of one individual's human rights is a matter that may be decided by another individual.
