Hillary Clinton: ‘Religious beliefs’ against abortion ‘have to be changed’

NEW YORK CITY, April 24, 2015 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Speaking to an influential gathering in New York City on Thursday, Hillary Clinton declared that “religious beliefs” that condemn "reproductive rights," “have to be changed.”

“Yes, we've cut the maternal mortality rate in half, but far too many women are still denied critical access to reproductive health,” Hillary told the Women in the World Summit yesterday.

Liberal politicians use “reproductive health” as a blanket term that includes abortion. However, Hillary's reference echoes National Organization for Women (NOW) president Terry O’Neill's op-ed from last May that called abortion “an essential measure to prevent the heartbreak of infant mortality.”

The Democratic presidential hopeful added that governments should throw the power of state coercion behind the effort to redefine traditional religious dogmas.

“Rights have to exist in practice, not just on paper. Laws have to be backed up with resources, and political will,” she said. “Deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs, and structural biases have to be changed.”

The left will NEVER win this battle in the long run and every one of these butchers will go down in the history books yet to be written as the MONSTERS that they were.

This is what the left truly believes..that religions stand in the way of their socialist agenda. They do not believe in freedom of religion or freedom of speech..or freedom of association.
This pig should not get one Christian or Jewish vote.

Great! In the footsteps of The Won.. .. another instant fundamental change to a belief system. This time to one that has persisted for thousands of years. These Democrats must be good to have the intelligence to see that millions of people over thousands of years had it all wrong. /Sarc

What maternal mortality rate? There are no instances where a baby causes women to die with C sections. More women die in abortion clinics as a percentage than childbirth.

Pray America is waking

Let's climb into the Wayback Machine to provide a bit of perspective: ‘Religious beliefs’ against slavery ‘have to be changed.’

Course, the DIMS were four-square behind slavery--Still are, as a matter of fact.

Who the heck is she to dictate people’s religious beliefs? So much for the free exercise and no establishment clauses.
