State-Owned Churches Are Killing America

No myth. Just an observation. if the Republican party has done so much to reverse their abortion law then you are happy with the result. Correct?

Not speaking for him, but sure he is not happy with the result. The success of the Republican Party on battling abortion has been on the state and local levels. On the national level, not much progress has been made. Any victory towards stopping this crime is better than the Democrats who not only allow it, but promote and advertise it. Republicans on a national level are guilty of condemning abortion at election time, then doing nothing, but Republicans have never promoted it.

The only valid point you have is that there should be bold Republicans on the national level of government to stop abortion. Then again, from reading your posts, that is not your true meaning. What you mean to say is, Democrats are no worse than Republicans because abortion continues though both Administrations. Instead of being interested in changing Republicans to stop the practice, you are interested in maintaining the weak Republicans in power to justify the Democrat Party's hands of dripping innocent blood in exchange for votes.

Your question completely ignores the fact that virtually every positive action taken by Republican administrations and legislatures to end murder in the abortion clinics of this nation have been immediately reversed by socialist judges legislating from the bench. A legislature can pass a bill and have it take effect in a matter of minutes. A judicial rendering takes years to reverse. You know that. So why are you trying to lay blame for "inaction" at the feet of Republicans when the obvious reality is your socialist judges are responsible for striking down the will of the people?

The question is disingenuous. You cannot ask if one is satisfied about abortion and support Obama the head abortionist.


The fact is we will never be ultimately satisfied until all abortion is illegal. But I am satisfied that the Repubs are doing all that can be done to end abortion. Law after law continues to be passed that closes abortion mills. They are dropping out of existence by the hundreds in all states.

Mr

I am pleased that you talk about Christ's Church in association the Republican party. It is certain that the unholy alliance of the reactionary-democrat party with the "liberal" churches for the last half century was not with Christ's Church.

I would agree that there was an alliance between black churches and the democratic party during the civil rights movement. I don't agree with that either. But I think by far the biggest problem now is between the Republican party and right wing evangelical churches. Neither one of these alliances were with Christ's church. He taught nothing about combining His church with the government. These alliances are between political parties and man's invention of the church.

I'm talking about hypocrisy. Republicans talk a LOT about stopping their abortion law but do nothing about it because it's more politically advantageous for them to do so.

You are either grossly uninformed or tragically dishonest. You really need to research issues before you comment on them.

I've researched this for a long time and am convinced the Republican party will NEVER do anything to reverse their abortion law.

Republicans in state legislatures have been successful in passing laws restricting abortions. I believe Texas was the most recent. Also the first thing Reagan and George W. Bush did once inaugurated was to stop funding for overseas abortions. The first thing Clinton and Obama did was to restore this funding.

Second choice. Probably because he's a paid DNC operative.

The solution is eliminate the tax exempt status of Churches and contributions to churches. That is an opinion I have long held!

Of course the preferable solution would to repeal the 16th Amendment. That is an opinion I have long held!

Churches would then be responsible for property taxes to states/counties/cities! That is an opinion I have long held!

That WOULD solve the problem. Then they couldnt spend $800K on a new sacristy. (It does look nice though)

Jeff's entire working budget doesnt exceed 10K per year.

Actually, I'm an operative of the Kingdom of God. You guys aught to try it. It's a much better life.
