WASHINGTON — Vice President Mike Pence reaffirmed the Trump administration’s commitment to addressing persecution of Christians around the world and urged Americans to call the targeting of Christians by Islamic terrorists genocide during a speech Thursday.

Words were never truer. And we’re quiet about it. Except of course in the election of 2016.

As long as there is a single Christian in this country who opposes abortion and gay marriage, Democrats don’t care.

This is the sort of statement one would normally expect The Pope to be making. Not the current Pope though.
Last week, Pope Francis was ashamed that the phrase MOAB contains the word ‘Mother’.

Technically, even, it doesn’t. M stands for Massive.

Right. "Mother of All Bombs" is a backronym. That article even uses MOAB as an example.

Massive Mother

That’s even ‘worse’

Is it Parental Appropriation?

There’s a rabid demonic hatred for both groups because of the promised inheritance from the Almighty to both groups.

Anybody who hates either group, is in for an eventual rude awakening.
