Some are still very faithful to their founding saint, Saint Ignatius Loyola, a brave and courageous ex military hero who found God while convalescing after a battle with the french where THEY were so impressed by his courage that they carried him off hte field to receive medical care) first and then the Catholic church started accepting the lunch program and with that the public education leftist propaganda infiltrated all their schools and even many of their colleges.
There ARE many Catholics still, who get the truth, witness that though the marchers are from all faiths, even atheist, the bulk these days are courageous young Catholics from all over the country and the world…it’s really awesome to see thta San Francisco one (Sunday the 27th) fill up the city with tens of thousands and the Antifa and women’s idiot activists are beside themselves that now it’s primarily YOUNG people who reject their leftist/life hating shrieking.

As you know, Saul Alinsky knew that Fascism was not going to go over well in a Republic. He knew it would take generations of indoctrination. The tool for that was “‘social justice”. Being compassionate and Christian as a nation, he knew within 3 generations of being in our public schools that he could win out through social justice. Hillary Clinton did her college thesis on him he was so revered by her. Of course, we now have the indoctrination of the folks who fought the Brown Shirts in Nazi Germany over who was going to be the winning thug, Anti-Fa, alive and well on our college campuses, police force, unions, and government. DJT has his work cut out for him. #MAGA!

They have gotten themselves way tied into Dem Party politics.
However, that is the only way they can survive. Without abortion, there is no reason for a PP clinic anywhere, anymore – first, low-income people have a federally-qualified health center accessible, nowadays, which can cover all the other services PP does, and second, PP does only a very limited menu of services – so why not go to a FQHC, where they can do the full range of primary care?
Thus, without abortion, they have no reason for existence. If enough states handicap PP, they will eventually have no money flow. Then, no political power. A Dem could be pro-life – as many Hispanics are – and win Dem offices here and there.

At its root, it is child sacrifice to Baal. Plain and simple. There is a deep and dark reason why the DEMONcRATs promote and encourage and fund abortion (Hill-the-BEAST, Pelosi, Boxer, Schumer, Waterbuffalo-Schultz, most of Hollyweird, the Paedostas, etc.) and it’s connected also to Paedogate (aka Pizzagate).
The DEMONcRATs don’t want children. They HATE children, as they’re GOD’s gift to us.
They only want voters, be they children, adults, dead, alive, bussed-in, or illegal. To paraphrase Tina Turner, “what’s life got to do with it?”…
Eventually those who kill their own will pay. Here’s hoping they learn, and turn. Because they’re not only killing their own future, they’re killing ours, too…

In many ancient societies, child sacrifice was integral to their religion.
The real significance of the Abraham and Isaac story, is how he realized the ancient belief of appeasing God through child sacrifice was not at all God’s will, even though Abraham had mistakenly thought it was, having been raised in the ancient Chaldean city of Ur.
Thus Abraham became the father of a great religion that did not practice child sacrifice, (except when they fell away and joined their heathen neighbors worshipping idols in the groves.)

GOD was testing Abraham, just as HE tested Job. There was no iniative on the part of Abraham, as he did NOT want to sacrifice his own child: he followed GOD’S commands both in that, and afterward, although he was not perfect…
And child sacrifice is SATANIC. There are former Black Magick Illuminized witches who talk and write about their experiences with that. Also, the Dutch Financier who spoke of his experience in the highest levels of international finance spoke of THEIR child sacrifices. So the practice lives on to this day…

Some, if not many, if not most, of the Bible stories have more than one meaning.
One layer is simply to document history.
In many places, the story is an advance confirmation that we can believe that Jesus was the Messiah. This confirms Messianic prophecy, which many Jewish people strive to argue away, and confirms who the Messiah is / would be.
Some try to claim that the Messiah came after AD70. Pretty challenging to verify the lineage from Aaron and David, per prophecy, after AD70!
Look geographically where Issac was laid down for sacrifice.
Look at the story: a father faithfully sacrifices his son.
Look just after Abraham averts from sacrificing Isaac – a ram is seen with his head stuck in what? – a crown of thorns.
Isaac carried the wood for the pyre; Jesus carried his cross.
Multiple levels of meaning. We are not in disagreement if we bring up valid ideas about the meaning of this event.
Bonus: This verification of 1. God, 2. the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; 3. the Prophecies is done along the lines of: The Scientific Method: test a hypothesis, developed a priori, in several ways, and if it does not get disproven, we really ought to consider it as true.

Yep. Just about all major events of the Old Testament foreshadow (and/or forewarn) events in the New Testament, and often Bible passages that speak to the generation of the time also point to the future. Proof also that the Bible is Divinely Inspired – a human author would neither be able to think that way, nor see ahead. The New Testament being the fulfillment of the Old Testament.
It’s also fascinating how many things in the Bible are being confirmed (dug up, etc.) even now. Josh McDowell’s “Evidence That Demands A Verdict” has a lot, but there are many other books out there.

Apparently you have to support the modern social welfare state, and gun control to be Pro-life for some. Not sure you have to be a vegan to be Pro-life too.
The Pro-life movement has always bought people together from different backgrounds, now you have to pass a litmus test. I have a feeling this has to be with conflict between liberal Catholics and conservative Evangelicals.

“Apparently you have to support the modern social welfare state, and gun control to be Pro-life for some”
There’s no need for welfare if single mothers are universally encouraged to give up their child in an open or closed adoption to a couple with a proper Mom and Dad. In some ways the modern pro-life movement is sort of grasping at lowest bar behavior patterns. We don’t have the high ground and haven’t since single motherhood became “okay”.
“The Pro-life movement has always bought people together from different backgrounds, now you have to pass a litmus test. I have a feeling this has to be with conflict between liberal Catholics and conservative Evangelicals.”
Liberal Catholics are pro-choice. Moderate Catholics, unfortunately tend to stuff themselves with a diet of “3rd way” non-sense where they are for babies and then the rest of the Democratic platform non-sense. They are mostly liberal in every sense, except they understand, at least that abortion=killing. Conservative Catholics tend to be on the same page as conservative Evangelicals in terms of gun control, socialism, etc.

President Trump gave a magnificent speech to the March for Life, televised live from the Rose Garden to the huge video screen, watched by the yuuuge crowd of mostly young people on the Mall. His speech could be studied for years to come as a model of Pro-Life rhetoric.
“The March for Life is a movement born out of love: you love your families; you love your neighbors; you love our nation; and you love every child born and unborn, because you believe that every life is sacred, that every child is a precious gift from God.”
He introduced a wonderful woman, Marianne Donadio from Greensboro North Carolina, who helps to run a maternity home, called “Room at the Inn”, as an example of what the Pro-Life movement produces out of love. Quite different from what the abortion industry does.

Run as a non-profit, they have worked to make adoption affordable for Christian families who want to open their hearts to some of these children. I have so much respect for them.
