Republicans: that five celled organism is a human life.

Also republicans: grandma had a good run.

Anti-abortion is what they are. Certainly not "pro-life", and I won't dignify them by calling them that.

I used to call them anti-choice.

Now I call them anti-woman.

They are pro-death all the way!

If you control women's reproduction, you control women. That's been successfully used for millennia.

to drive people apart.

They could just as soon become anti-gay or anti-old people or anti-women - anything to drive those wedges.

Political power grubbers, who will stop at nothing, hitched to a death cult, who will also stop at nothing. That pretty much sums up the Republicans and Evilgelicals.

Because we all know these pro-life scumbags don't give a damn once the fetuses they love so much pop out of the womb.

Most organized Illuminati type Satanic groups appear to be more agnostic.

Trump very consistently takes the opposite of the Christian position in issue after issue. It is way more than Machiavellian strategy. He also really appears to enjoy it.

The constant lying, false witness or gaslighting is anti Christian.

As Christian we are to love our neighbor. The border wall does the opposite and he wants to paint it black because he likes that the heat will hurt people.

He worships money and l locks children in cages. Takes every opportunity to hurt the most vulnerable.

I have never seen him say or do anything Christian.
