Why has abortion become a conundrum issue in the USA?
What is the core reason the subject of abortion has become a religious or political issue? Or has become an issue of opinion in the USA of either being forced on people who are either not religious, or are religious but support abortion to be a woman’s right.
And even support the issue that abortion should be paid for by government taxpayer funds?
The Purpose of This Post
Is to relate ancient wisdom to understand the core reason of the various opinions of both religious and non-religious viewpoints on this wisdom or folly conundrum?
King Solomon
I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness. (Ecclesiastes 2:13)
Anyone who is among the living has hope –even a live dog is better off than a dead lion! (Ecclesiastes 9:4)
The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion. (Proverb 28:1)
What’s My Point?
In a previous post titled: One Issue Voter, Wise or Foolish? I explained what I agreed it IS not unethical to vote on a single issue to help us decided which politicians or political party to vote for in the coming election.
This begs a question if it is ethical for the issue of abortion to be another single issue to decide our vote.
My point is to present the core reason why the issue of abortion has become a conundrum of religion or politics for voters to decide.
In My Opinion,
The clue to the answer for this conundrum is contained in the following statement made by Citizen Tom.
“Christians believe wisdom is of God, not man”
In other words, if we never teach the wisdom of God to our children, the Wisdom of God will continue to wane, and more and more folly will prevail in the future of the USA or World as evidenced in history.

You Decide
Is Citizen Tom’s statement both the clue and the answer to the core reason of this conundrum question?
Would return parents’ choice of schools to teach their religious values instead of government secular values? Values to follow the path of Wisdom and Love taught in the Bible over time reduce the conundrum of abortion as well as other foolish paths choices continue to be a divisive source of controversy or conundrum in the USA?
Which political party platform supports school choice or school vouchers? Answer, only the Republican party in the 2020 Presidential election supports school choice in spite of the following statement.
“Black parents love charter schools and voucher-supported private school vouchers because they teach values, self-respect, and hope. But no, if this option for poor or lower-income parents has more Democrat opposition than ever.”

Good post, Rudy! We’ve invited the government into so many areas of our life, but not the Lord. We should be inviting the Lord and His wisdom into those areas of our lives that give us trouble.
I really like James Madison, one of our founding fathers. He warned us that if you open the door between church and state, don’t forget that’s a two way door. That is why all these social and spiritual issues have now become political issues and probably the least qualified people to solve these problems are politicians.

Thanks for your kind comment
Your remark “hy all these social and spiritual issues have now become political issues and probably the least qualified people to solve these problems are politicians,”i
Your comment is spot on the problem of our “nanny government” follies because politicians are not Spiritual leaders who are qualified “nannies” in my opinion.
In my opinion, politicians y should focus only on government duties of police, fire, and garbage removal instead of all the other issues like school that only qualified real “nannies” in life should make.
