        In other words, “One Texas woman recently left her evangelical church because she’s an actual Christian”

        She’s not alone. There is a strand of Christianity that is not fully comfortable in either party.

        Why does the government have to fix this? They can do charitable things without involving the government whatsoever

        Historically the Christians in this country have mostly aligned with the right wing political ideologies I’m just noting that is no longer the case

        Also I'm not religious, but if I were I'd be calling Trump a false prophet.

        To the faiths detriment, the Church has long since abandoned the Social Gospel for the Prosperity Gospel of earthly power and greed. SMH.

        No ma'am. You can't have it both ways. Either you protect life in the womb AND out of it because they are both equally precious & sacred to God or your are a hypocrite If you want to protect life so badly, please tell us how many of the unborn you saved, have you adopted 1,2,3?
