“Now, the hierarchy of victimhood has been transformed, and women—females—can be subjected to no end of abuse if it’s for the greater good of protecting males who… demand the world acknowledges they are women.” - TAC

“Camden … actually employed more police — and more law enforcement.

“The last abortion center in Missouri won a lengthy courtroom brawl to keep its license even though only a handful of women ended their pregnancies at the facility in the last year. On May 30, the day after the Missouri Administrative Hearing Commission ruled in Planned Parenthood’s favor.” - WORLD

“The counter argument—that protesting is incompatible with a Christian ethic—is usually made from texts like 1 Peter 2:13-14….But this is the beauty of the freedoms we have in the United States. Our government itself protects our ability to protest.” - Jesse Johnson

“In an earlier blog I emphasized the importance of moral clarity for an effective protest. The case of George Floyd dripped with moral clarity — so much so that 78% of the country agreed that Derek Chauvin … should have been arrested immediately. However, such a national consensus and borderline unity was intolerable for the anarchists. It was necessary for them to muddy the moral waters to accomplish their objectives.

Current law “creates a legal fiction granting abortion providers standing to represent the interests of the women they injure.

“Left unguarded, feelings of uselessness can easily replace the busy schedule that used to typify each week.

The agenda it sets for evangelical social activism will only reinforce the suspicions of most Americans, who look at evangelical Christianity and see not a religion but a pseudo-religious ideology for a right-wing political program.

“Steve King calls his loss in Tuesday’s primary a victory in the ‘effort to push out the strongest voice for full-spectrum constitutional, Christian conservatism.’ But the election results tell a different story. It was, to use a slightly dated term, the religious right who threw King out in favor of state Sen. Randy Feenstra.” - WExaminer
