00:00:06.330 --> 00:00:09.270 align:middle line:84%
One day, this is still from
that same section, the love poem

00:00:09.270 --> 00:00:10.077 align:middle line:90%
section.

00:00:10.077 --> 00:00:11.910 align:middle line:84%
I was sitting there in
the house looking out

00:00:11.910 --> 00:00:15.570 align:middle line:84%
the window being
very unproductive,

00:00:15.570 --> 00:00:17.070 align:middle line:90%
which is something I like to do.

00:00:17.070 --> 00:00:19.860 align:middle line:90%
And the radio was on.

00:00:19.860 --> 00:00:22.380 align:middle line:84%
And there was a program
on about abortion.

00:00:22.380 --> 00:00:27.240 align:middle line:84%
And I could hear my
wife come in and listen.

00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:29.170 align:middle line:84%
And I kept looking
out the window,

00:00:29.170 --> 00:00:31.560 align:middle line:84%
because I knew given the
nature of the program.

00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:36.280 align:middle line:84%
I was going to be called
to account for an opinion.

00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:39.030 align:middle line:84%
So while the program
was going on,

00:00:39.030 --> 00:00:42.690 align:middle line:90%
I started formulating an answer.

00:00:42.690 --> 00:00:47.800 align:middle line:84%
And the answer is call
for these conditions,

00:00:47.800 --> 00:00:48.890 align:middle line:90%
there is no abortion.

00:00:48.890 --> 00:00:51.330 align:middle line:90%
It's in two parts.

00:00:51.330 --> 00:00:56.580 align:middle line:84%
The first point is there's a
word in the poem praxis, which

00:00:56.580 --> 00:00:59.580 align:middle line:84%
is a Greek word for
action for the most part.

00:00:59.580 --> 00:01:02.670 align:middle line:90%


00:01:02.670 --> 00:01:06.510 align:middle line:84%
All kinds of action even
thought is a kind of praxis

00:01:06.510 --> 00:01:07.380 align:middle line:90%
a kind of action.

00:01:07.380 --> 00:01:10.220 align:middle line:90%


00:01:10.220 --> 00:01:15.200 align:middle line:84%
They say the tongue
is only praxis.

00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:20.300 align:middle line:84%
It is only a surge forward
between spring and God.

00:01:20.300 --> 00:01:23.220 align:middle line:90%
Months later, God is gone.

00:01:23.220 --> 00:01:26.150 align:middle line:90%
Our spring is upon us.

00:01:26.150 --> 00:01:29.360 align:middle line:90%
We learned the for children.

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:32.970 align:middle line:90%
They don't want us or our child.

00:01:32.970 --> 00:01:37.430 align:middle line:84%
We are just
sophomores and curses.

00:01:37.430 --> 00:01:45.170 align:middle line:84%
Like Aristotle, I believe plot
after plot means something.

00:01:45.170 --> 00:01:48.050 align:middle line:90%
It is a formula evening.

00:01:48.050 --> 00:01:50.540 align:middle line:90%
The sun is red.

00:01:50.540 --> 00:01:54.170 align:middle line:90%
Knight is someone Beyond Blue.

00:01:54.170 --> 00:01:56.990 align:middle line:90%
Her belly is living and dying.

00:01:56.990 --> 00:02:02.600 align:middle line:84%
And we don't sit close
anymore even in the lunchroom.

00:02:02.600 --> 00:02:06.710 align:middle line:84%
Her eyes are smooth
stones falling.

00:02:06.710 --> 00:02:08.910 align:middle line:90%
I am a man.

00:02:08.910 --> 00:02:12.410 align:middle line:90%
Therefore, I am falling.

00:02:12.410 --> 00:02:18.440 align:middle line:84%
She says, today, she has learned
a word for folks like us.

00:02:18.440 --> 00:02:21.080 align:middle line:90%
I am about to say sorry.

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:24.470 align:middle line:90%
She says pathos.

00:02:24.470 --> 00:02:29.540 align:middle line:90%
Martha's story is not so simple.

00:02:29.540 --> 00:02:35.240 align:middle line:84%
Yes, she is older and freer
like her lover is gone.

00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:36.740 align:middle line:90%
Yes.

00:02:36.740 --> 00:02:38.810 align:middle line:90%
And she is poor.

00:02:38.810 --> 00:02:43.310 align:middle line:84%
Yes, poor Martha with
her belly in her hands

00:02:43.310 --> 00:02:47.270 align:middle line:84%
with a man who is
anything, but Jesus.

00:02:47.270 --> 00:02:51.260 align:middle line:84%
Poor Martha with blood
and misunderstanding.

00:02:51.260 --> 00:02:56.180 align:middle line:84%
Tragedy is opening
for all her roses.

00:02:56.180 --> 00:03:00.230 align:middle line:90%
Lord, legalized this.

00:03:00.230 --> 00:03:03.350 align:middle line:90%
Hour bloom and decay.

00:03:03.350 --> 00:03:08.510 align:middle line:84%
Martha is something in
common with rope on fire.

00:03:08.510 --> 00:03:11.510 align:middle line:84%
Her womb should
give her pleasure,

00:03:11.510 --> 00:03:15.365 align:middle line:90%
not hangers and kwenye and soda.

00:03:15.365 --> 00:03:18.620 align:middle line:90%


00:03:18.620 --> 00:03:21.530 align:middle line:84%
It ask me how did I
become such an authority.

00:03:21.530 --> 00:03:26.045 align:middle line:84%
But it was just an
old tale in New York.

00:03:26.045 --> 00:03:29.310 align:middle line:90%


00:03:29.310 --> 00:03:31.260 align:middle line:84%
One home remedy
for abortions was

00:03:31.260 --> 00:03:35.490 align:middle line:84%
supposed to be crying and
soda and stuff I think.

00:03:35.490 --> 00:03:39.350 align:middle line:84%
The only thing it seems to
be able to do is kill people.

00:03:39.350 --> 00:03:41.000 align:middle line:90%
