Can You Be Christian and a Democrat?
Number Nine: This last number needs to be separate because it's a particularly vicious and racist evil. The Democratic Party and current candidates actively (and I'd say rabidly) support Planned Parenthood — a racist organization founded by eugenicist, Margaret Sanger. She hated black people and wanted to get rid of them.
Ever wonder why 79% of Planned Parenthood clinics are in minority neighborhoods (and just think of that — 79% of all their abortion clinics!)? Because, in founding Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger said, "Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated." So from the beginning, the clinics were put in minority neighborhoods. If you're going to exterminate a people, you've got to be close to where they live.
The results are astounding. While black Americans make up only 12.6% of the population, since 1973 they've made up 37% of all abortions. Abortion has reduced the black population by 30%. More than any other ethnic group (although Hispanic abortions are also wildly disproportional to their overall representation in the country (you can read more here)).
So from those nine reasons, it's very clear that objectively, the Democratic Party is responsible for, and proudly claims responsibility for, 57 million lives taken in abortion. The Democratic Party collectively yawned when videos were released showing Planned Parenthood folks talking about selling baby parts. More humans lives have been lost through abortion than in any Republican military action or by capital punishment or by gun violence or starvation or racism (all the reasons a person might give for voting Democrat).
On lives taken — the Democratic Party win hands down.
And I get it. If Donald is the Republican candidate, who knows what he will do? But he has said he's pro-life (I know! He doesn't even say that in a really good way!). But he's also surrounded himself with folks who are pro-life. But with the information above, you KNOW what Democratic Party will do. They will continue to put judges in place that will expand abortion rights even further than they are now, and guarantee that abortion will continue unrestricted for another 20 to 40 years. They will continue to fund Planned Parenthood. And they will continue to push and promote their Holy Grail, their Great Sacrament, their great Non-Negotiable — unfettered abortion up to the moment of birth.
So you decide — what reason could a Christian give for being a part of a group that actively fights for the ability to kill the most vulnerable in our society?
So SHOULD a Christian be a Democrat? It's life and death, and the answer is no.
