He didn’t double cross me at all. He gave what was a logical answer, and the rest of the world, except for true pro-life believers, decided it was the ‘wrong’ answer. He wasn’t knowledgeable enough, begin a convert, to know that the logical answer is the right answer.

Cruz, Kasich, all the conservative media, and everyone else took this pro-life convert and made him realize that truth wasn’t the issue. Correctness was the issue.

It actually helped me. Now I know that none of them are truly pro-life.

I would respectfully disagree. (And I mean that since I do respect you)

After investigating the issue myself, listening/reading the arguments of both sides, it seems clear to me that many women who procure an abortion are victims themselves.

Many are pressured by “friends”, husbands, family members etc, to have an abortion and are themselves reluctant to the end to do it. They feel trapped in a web from which they feel they can’t escape, because of this intense pressure from those they have loved and trusted. These same people urging them to do what they know is wrong in their heart. This is the testimony of countless women who have had an abortion.

They also testify to great regret later. And for the rest of their lives feel trapped in a prison of guilt. The truly repentant (again of which are many) don’t deserve prison. They need to know they can be forgiven by God should they really repent.

Certainly I’m sure there are some that have no remorse, and perhaps some legal remedy could be reserved for such women. But the vast majority are not like that, another dirty, unspoken secret of the abortion industry. The millions of women themselves destroyed by the “simple procedure”.

I believe the pro-life movement can only be helped by encouraging these millions of women to come forward, to give their testimony. But they won’t be encouraged to do so if they are rotting in a prison cell.

Trump’s answer was only the ‘right’ answer to those who are vengeful and punitive in nature.

Yeshua told us what the right answer is when he told the Pharisees “Let he who is without this sin cast the first stone.”

No, Trump is in no way Pro Life; he is Pro Trump, and will say almost anything, and by visible evidence, do almost anything to win.

Your comments lately are awash in hypocrisy.

>> Cruz, Kasich, all the conservative media, and everyone else took this pro-life convert [Trump] and made him realize that truth wasn’t the issue <<

Thanks! Got it!

In other words, Mr. Trump is so ill-informed, so lacking in core conviction and so subject to intimidation that he can be tricked into making a 180-degree reversal on his stated abortion policy within a few hours.

Poor little Mr. Trump. He cain’t hep it. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
