In a speech last week, Hillary Clinton lamented that too many women are supposedly denied abortions. The Democratic presidential candidate came under fire for that pro-abortion comment, but she also is drawing widespread condemnation for another remark in the speech.
The comment has Hillary Clinton essentially saying that Christians must be forced to change their religious views to accommodate abortions.
“Far too many women are still denied critical access to reproductive health care and safe childbirth. All the laws we’ve passed don’t count for much if they’re not enforced,” Clinton said, using the euphemism for abortion.
“Rights have to exist in practice — not just on paper,” Clinton argued. “Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed,:
That is not going over well with pro-life advocates.
Bill Donohue of the Catholic League let Hillary have it in his remarks to LifeNews.
“It was not surprising that Hillary Clinton, who strongly opposes a ban on partial-birth abortion, would tell her feminist audience that she supports Planned Parenthood. What was surprising was her comment on the need to change religious beliefs on abortion,” he said. “In others words, Hillary has a problem with the Catholic Church’s teachings on abortion—they must be changed.”
“Never before have we seen a presidential candidate be this bold about directly confronting the Catholic Church’s teachings on abortion. It’s time for Hillary to take the next step and tell us exactly what she plans to do about delivering on her pledge. Not only would practicing Catholics like to know, so would Evangelicals, Orthodox Jews, Muslims, and all those who value life from conception to natural death,” Donohue added.
David Ripley of Idaho Chooses Life also condemned her remarks.

Jesus can be portrayed as taking the aborted children lovingly into his arms.
That's it. The perfect bumper stick. She should win in a lanslide with that one.
They can't actually use the name Jesus, in fact, they can't actually verbalize the words least they turn into a pillar of salt. All Progs need to do is put a picture of someone who looks like Jesus.
Speaking of separation of church and state, how can Hillary influence pastors and priests to preach the Prog message?

Okay whodey, cut to the chase on this spiritual subject.
WHO should we vote for ???
I don't see much of an improvement on the other side. It's either Jeb or Hillary.
Luckily, this thread is not about voting for Hillary, this thread is about the power of the state trying to rule us from the pulpit.
Was this not the very tyranny that the Founding Fathers were wanting to avoid?
