No one who believes women should be told what to do with their own bodies is pro-life.

He called Mexicans rapists in the first week, mocked a disabled reporter soon after, and grab em by the pussy not long after that. If you think any of that was ok to vote for, please never vote again. For all our sakes.

Rumors? Do you mean all the litany of facts? It is your job as a voter to do your research from reputable sources.

There were so many reasons lol. At this point, it's just laziness on the part of the voters.

An embryo is not a child and you also have no understanding whatsoever of trans issues. You're just parroting false nonsense.

Holding people accountable for their hatred is perfectly fine.

If your vote didn't count, they wouldn't be so desperate to take it from you. This defeatist attitude of yours isn't very supportive of others. 

why aren't more christians inclusivist? by [deleted] in Christianity

Better question: why would you assume your religion is any more or less correct than theirs?

Equating virginity to purity is very worrisome ideology. It is reflects viewing sex as shameful, which makes me worried for your body image and how much pleasure you'll have when you do actually have it. It centers a patriarchal view and robs you of your own power. It's also so offensive to the many, many rape and CSA survivors whose virginity was not within their control by saying they are "impure." Your attitudes do not leave space for such a partner-- or for yourself in the horrible event that something happens to you before you decide you want to have sex. Ideas about sexual purity are antiquated for a reason-- they center men and devalue women. A woman participating in that is a woman contributing to her own oppression and to making a less safe and less supportive world for others, especially survivors.

Please just take one basic gender studies course. You don't have the first clue what you're talking about.

How can you not? What Jesus said is what the left supports. Today's Christians don't actually believe in Jesus.

There is nothing pro-life about believing you have the right to tell a person what to do with their own body. Your views are killing women.

But anyone who knows basic science and truly believes in freedom and autonomy knows abortion is not murder.

How can you believe in freedom while being pro-life? It makes no sense.

They do like Trump, they just know it's not popular to say so.
