The Reclusive Pilgrim

This a blog of my thoughts on politics, religion, philosophy. I am a reclusive pilgrim searching for the meaning of life and the higher power of goodness, in this world . My desire is to share my thoughts of what I have discovered through experience.

I have such a wide variety of interests including what might happen after worst case scenario's, such as what might happen after an ET attack, and the future of humanity. I also consider issues of politics and religion on my blogs and on other social media platforms.

Cloneing and Birth Control: The Morality

What is morality? How can something be judged to be moral? Right vs. wrong. Left vs. right. The idea that something is moral ought to be thought of as what is an honorable able action vs. what is a shameful action. There can be no shame unless a person feels guilty for the digraceful action. What is better, to let nature take its' course and be the decideing factor in the pregenacy proceses, or to take control over that which science allows us to control? Women have a right to believe that since its' their body that is being used for the process of birth, that they have a right in, the out come in the use of their bodies. But is it fair? In birth the woman is one part of nature in that life ushers forth from her womd to the world of the liveing. What happens when nature isnt' allowed its place in the world? What is being denied? What is being denied is the objectivity that nature brings to the birthing process. By letting nature run its' course, the woman remains neutral in so far that she has no choice in the sort of child she brings into this exsistance. What then becomes moraley wrong then is that the science that allows the woman the choice to over ride the objcetivity of nature. The sacrifice of not haveing a choice is then lost. It is when a person can be objective in decideing to make a sacrifice that honor and noblity are maintained. Thus makeing the pregnacy process a noble and honorable endevor. But all that is lost when we insert the freedom of choice in decideing prematurely the fate of the unborn.
As for birth control it is less of a moral issue because it lacks the significance of the decisions regarding the fate of a devloping fetus. Thus any loss of honor, or feelings of shame ought to be minimal in comparison to the larger issues around cloneing and abortion.
We are free to choose between good and evil. But by chooseing evil we are often choosing what we feel is our right to choose. Thus evil often deceptive in showing the easy way out, instead of makeing the hard choice for what we know to be the right, and often the good way of doing something.
