Racism is not pro-life; racism is death for those dehumanized by it. It is the destruction of lives.

It was no surprise these people could justify Trump, when they could justify callous cruelty in their own lives.

Lip-service to a movement that will get you elected, while protecting tyrants who dismember journalists they don't like, is not pro-life.

...if you’ve got this far, you’ve been listening to a woman preach and teach.

If you don’t have a secure citizenship in heaven, you are bound to cling to something useless and foolish here on earth.
