    Jesus isn't a Republican, but He cares about issues Republicans care about, like the mass slaughter of the unborn.

    Where in the bible or in Christ's ministry did he mention the slaughter of the unborn?

    Yep, I have believed more of us are fringe alt left than alt right. The alt left are a dangerous lot. They want only their ideas voiced as we have seen countless times.

    We disagree. Do you think the same about non-profits like Planned Parenthood or Media Matters?

    Probably a few lefties finding the word of God for the first time due to Orange Man Bad syndrome.

    100 Christian organizations have written condemnation of this.

    Or maybe some righties finally understanding that the Faith that supposedly overrides EVERYTHING in their lives is more important than their 401K and their repugnance for the color brown

    What were the 100 orgs.? Did they include Klansmen for Christ and the High and Holy Sex Workers?

    How was Mueller a "bust"? He found TEN serious crimes and the ONLY reason he couldn't indict the President on them is that the President's own Justice Dept specifically forbade it for NO reason other than a memo that specifically forbade a sitting President from being indicted.

    Major logical fallacies among that lot!!!!

    Let us start with the idea of “pre-born”. The excerpts they are quoting are unclear on whether it is referencing some vague idea of a spirit that has yet to be encapsulated or “ensouled” or whether it is talking about a foetus

    “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations” (Jeremiah 1:5, NIV).

    Could refer to a conceptus or it could refer to a soul of a potential human or even a soul on its third or fourth pass through life, depending on your interpretation

    This one discusses harm during a domestic violence incident not abortion

    For those that don’t understand Christianity favor condemnation.

    LOL, so serious he couldn’t say anything like he did in the first part. He tried for two years to build an obstruction case but even failed that.

    I assume you noticed that is a different publication and all.

    Good for that guy taking a principled stand like that. He is brave and putting his money where his mouth is, just like the many vulnerable Democrats who voted to impeach in spite of the heat they would take from their district constituencies.

    Shame the only Republicans who will take a stand are those who have retired or will retire. Seems they are made of different stuff.

    I've yet to meet an evangelical (of the political variety) that has actually read the Bible. It's all out of context Sunday Sermon talking points or outright heresy. Christian politicians area thing. Conservative Christians are a thing even. But Evangelical 'Christians' are just a bunch of asshats hiding behind a religion they don't understand.

    And would that be such a bad thing?
    Where I live they have built a huge church, a children's church and a TV studio all on about 10 acres of land, and they don't pay a penny in property tax.

    When someone actually states this let us know (straw man).
