Love does not Destroy Life:
The Truth is that we all know that Abortion is not health care. It is a slaughter of 3200 unborn babies a DAY, 96,000 a MONTH, 1.2 Million a year, and more than 45 Million in 36 years in America.
This is a slaughter of the least of our people (poorest, weakest, most dependant, and least of our people).
Say NO to the free slaughter without a chance to respect and protect the lives of both the mother and the child.
Respect Life.
Protect Life.
Protect Love.
Love Life.
God Bless All of You who are Fighting the Good Fight.
Romans 12:21 - Do not be conquered by evil but conquer evil with good.
LOVE!
Seek, Speak, Share, and Defend the Truth.
LOVE LIFE.

The Church never told the government to make people dependent upon the government.
The government could do more good by reducing the Hand-OUTs and improving the Hand-UPs.
Hand-OUTs make people dependent upon the government every month. Hand-OUTs are a continuous drains on the tax base. Hand-OUTs make the nation weak.
Hand-UPs help strengthen people to grow skills and allow them to get back up from a bad situation. Hand-UPs help people to be indepent and able to give back. Hand-UPs help reduce the need for a tax base. Hand-UPs strengthen the nation.
Give-Backs also allow those that receive to give back to help other or to produce for what they receive.
Hand-ups and Give-Backs are strengthen our people and our nation.
The Truth is the government should not make people dependent. We should help people by helping to develop their skills to stremgthen them and our nation.
The Truth is that the Church encourages Hand-UPs!
Seek, Speak, Share, and Defend the Truth.
The Truth will set Us Free!
Jesus came to testify to the Truth.
Love God and Love Your Neighbor.
Love Life.

Once truth is compromised, the Lie takes hold.
That is what happened during the election. Good-intentioned people who have compromised the Truth in favor of social/political/economic/environmental objectives all under the banner of "the government is here to help."
The Church abdicated its role to the government. With more frequent statements by "christian leaders" that the government needs to do something to fix the ills wrought by the churchs' lack of attention only demonstrates that they have bought the Lie.

Donna says it well.
ALL are WELCOME. Don't allow line cutting but rather REWARD those who are following the rules. Make it EQUAL for All who want to come to America.
Many Americans were blessed by being born here. Every person that is not 100% Native American had family that Immigrated to this country in the last couple centuries. We should care about each immigrant as if they were our grandparents and give them a fair and equal opportunity to come to America. Just as our family tree did generations ago. We are no better than them. We were just blessed to have had family that immigrated here generation(s) ago. All should be welcomed in a equal and fair way.
Great Common Ground Donna.
All Human Life is Equally Important.
Love and Care for every Human Life Equally.
Love Life.

Pres. Bush tried to pass 'comprehensive immigration reform'?
Who were those people who rose up in such great numbers demanding that U.S. laws be followed and 'just say no to amnesty'? And it didn't happen. Now that Obama's president, it's going to happen?? Me thinks not.
Conservatives are not against legal immigration. We are against people cutting in line and breaking U.S. immigration laws. Should Mexico get special rules because they border the U.S.?? Fair-minded people know the answer. NO - the U.S. has to be fair to all immigrants, and the only way to do that is to ENFORCE immigration laws EQUALLY. So yes, let's change existing law so that our borders are protected, work-only passes are easier to get, and REWARD people who are doing what's right and playing by the rules. Common ground anyone?

Just so you know, most Catholics would be stunned to hear Cardinal McCarrick described as a "religious conservative".

Ban-Abortion churches increase numbers of tax-subsidized big families of poor people. They increase numbers of dirt poor families of illegal immigrants. They get tax exemption to perform these traitorous acts against the nation. I want all of them taken totally away from having any input.

Most illegal immigrants are from nations where church laws ban abortion, allow 4 wives successively or otherwise increase number of people who tithe. Mexico is known to be a "Catholic nation" full of big, poor families. Everywhere, by sheer weight of numbers, they reduce the value of all human labor. They obey ban=abortion church law because it says abortion is a sin, punished by excommunication and Hell. But Christ told people that when they accepted him, He instantly, personally forgave their sins- past, present & future. In 2008, Mexico City legalized abortion & people are starting to regulate population. I expect illegal Catholic workers send 10% of their pay to their church. That's a reason for some US churches to make themselves illegal safe-houses for job-stealers. In Europe, Muslims from former colonies bring in big, poor families & drag wages down. Here and abroad, taxpayers are stuck with supporting these self-pauperized overbreeders. We must fine people who hire them and jail officials who help them arrive here. Federal agencies should deputize people to find illegals. Taxes should pay to do same day deportation. They are an occupying army & must be stopped.

what planet these "religious conservatives" might be on and what Bible they might be reading that precious few of them can find the moral compass for truly universal health care. But, hey, a good half of them never caught onto the moral imperative for civil rights either. A ton of those southern church folks though black people were only okay "in their place"---which was only places not mixed with white people, and certainly not in the voting booth.
Now, someone thinks the religious conservatives are instead going to want to favor (formerly illegal) immigrants? From what planet does that thought emerge? C'mon. Religious conservatives really just like tax cuts and think/talk very little of anything rooted in Christ. A few leaders maybe will offer kind but empty words.
But offer a real immigration reform bill and the church folks will be leading the tea party/town hall yelling AGAIN.
This is why I love Jesus and care very little for "Church".
