The Issue: Trump and Planned Parenthood
Lately, since the
videos about how PP uses aborted baby parts, I’ve heard a lot of chatter about
how Trump should not be President because he won’t come out and say he will ban
PP; although, he has been pro life for over a decade. Over and over Trump has said he is pro life,
but that he likes the good things that PP does for underprivileged women. While I personally am against PP and would
like to see them defunded … we must present a viable alternative plan to help
cover underprivileged women before yanking away their security net. That is the sentiment of Trump, but his
enemies refuse to acknowledge this of him … just because he won’t say he will
totally defund PP.
I also have a problem
with this legalistic line of thinking on another level. I looked at the history of PP (I also have a
link that you can read for yourself) and guess what … it’s been around for a
very long time … actually … from inception … since 1916. I realize Sanger is a
very wicked women, but that is not my point here; although, I am well aware
many will point at her and cry … burn
the witch at the stake! My point can be reflected in the last 3
Republican Presidents who did nothing to defund PP during their 20 year tenure
in the White House.
*Ronald Reagan did not defund Planned
Parenthood*
*George Bush Sr. did not defund Planned
Parenthood*
*George W. Bush did not defund Planned
Parenthood*
My point in this is
that the wickedness of abortion is just as egregious 1 second after inception
as it is 1 second before a live birth.
This is something the legalistic crowd seems to be blind and deaf to,
for their own reasons. I know this group
that is shouting at Trump means well … I know they say there are acting on core
principles … I know they say not voting for Trump on the basis of abortion is a
matter of conscience. But … where was this outcry during the
election of Reagan, Bush Sr. and Bush W? Where was the outcry that demanded they
defund PP or they would not vote for them as a matter of conviction and/or
conscience? It was not there … why …
because Trump wasn’t the clear leader and they didn’t create an issue for
followers to piggy back upon.
I would put forth that
this attack on the “issue” of Trump and PP has not been thought out too well …
which is par for the course for many on
the conservative legalistic side of this argument. Does Trump talk before thinking things
through so he can articulate it more clearly … YES. Is Trump boisterous … YES. Is Trump out of the mainstream political
environment … YES. Is Trump a believer …
I don’t think so (but nobody knows but him and God). Does Trump love America … I believe he does
and has proved it over and over in his life (maybe not in ways conservative,
legalistic bending Christians who have lost touch with a post Christian culture
and can’t be IN the world but not OF it in a practical sense would do it).
So … please don’t try
to bully and preach to people about Trump being a baby hatter and an overall PP
lover when that isn’t the truth. If that were true then Ronald Reagan, George
Bush SR, and George W. Bush would be baby hatters and PP lovers too. Please think things through before attacking
Trump on this issue. If Trump proves to be untrustworthy and is lying about
what he wants to do to make America Great Again then I will adjust my position,
but … until then … GO TRUMP!
Ted Cruz has hurt the
cause of Christ more by his ongoing deceit (while thumping his Bible while
holding it high in the air) in his campaign than Donald Trump has done in his
lifetime. People look at Trump and don’t
really believe he is a Christian (although nobody really knows that but him and
God); however, people do believe Cruz
is a believer (although nobody knows that but him and God) and he is causing
millions to not trust what Christians say or do. I despise this in the Cruz campaign and wish
more believers would rise up and condemn him for this travesty on the cause of
truth and the cross of Christ!
This is Mark Harrell …
I am a dedicated Christian and Pastor … and I, as of this point, am a supporter
of Donald Trump for President so he can follow up on his promises to the
American people and Make America Great Again!
RU FIT!
Mark Harrell - …and I approve
this message!
