Is this the prayer meeting where that black pastor killed a spider on trump’s arm?
Why is a black hand seen but only a finger?
Why the racial overtone

On other evangelical news fronts, Google Pat Robertson + African diamonds; also Jerry Falwell Jr + poolboy + Michael Cohen.

I love when little kittens pop up for pictures–it means that my Making America Kittens Again plugin is working. And it’s so wonderful to see kittens instead of Donald Trump.

In reply to Ford1968. A) I have never said I voted for or support Trump. I have said I can understand why others have felt cornered into doing so, or what their rationale was. B) I'll decide for myself what is morally acceptable, thanks.

In reply to North Woods. I understand what you are saying, my focus was primarily in contesting the "pro-life" label claimed by people (especially evangelicals) solely on the basis of the abortion question, and then in so many other areas having positions that skew against the affirmation of life.

In reply to Dave.

I also don’t use “pro-life” to describe the group you reference. However I also don’t agree with your using “anti-abortion”; it insinuates that their opponents are “pro-abortion”.

A more accurate description is “anti-abortion rights” vs. “pro-abortion rights” advocates. I.e., there’s plenty of “pro-abortion rights” advocates who seek policies that reduce unplanned pregnancies, teen pregnancies, and therefore demand for abortion. These people have a far more legitimate claim to being “anti-abortion” than the so-called pro-life movement; that’s because they seek policies validated to reduce abortion rates that also protect the health and life of pregnant women.

In reply to Tacitus.

Good evening Tacitis,
The dark side of the 1st Ammendment is that fear mongering is very lucrative. I personally think that FOX could care less about conservative causes – they would embrace anything that made them as much money as easily as their brand of popular ‘conservativism’. There are a lot of people who willingly drank the kool-aide. It provides a emotional satisfying answer to their fears and problems – ‘It is the others’.
A very interesting article was done by the NY Times comparing Muskogee OK (Merle Haggard fame) and Baltimore. (May 6, 2015 Sex, Drugs and Poverty in Red and Blue America – Did I do the footnote correctly Warren?).

Best regards,
CJ
