It’s Time for Prolife Leaders to Repent

It’s Time for Prolife Leaders to Repent 2016-10-08T13:26:27-07:00 Mark Shea

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Mary Pezzullo points out something so visible-from-space obvious that only the utterly Prudence-free conservative prolife Christian leadership could fail to see it:

It was ludicrous of Priests for Life, the Susan B. Anthony List and all the other big name pro-life organizations to pander to Trump in the first place. Anyone with half a brain could tell he was lying. But they are so entrenched in party politics they’ll endorse anyone. Now, the fact that their candidate is a philandering pig who has sexually assaulted women and bragged about it– yes, grabbing genitals and forcibly kissing are sexual assault– is all over the news.

I’m calling on the leaders of the pro-life movement to repent. You’ve pandered to party politics rather than being wise as serpents and innocent as doves the way our Lord commanded, and now you look like idiots. Besides that, you’re encouraging the notion that pro-life people hate and instrumentalize women.

I am a devout Catholic pro-life woman, I’m raising a devout Catholic pro-life daughter, and I’m calling out Donald Trump for the anti-life, anti-woman monster he’s obviously been all along.

I’m not telling anyone who to vote for. All I’ve said all along is to use the brain God gave you. Use it. Randomly saying he’s pro-life and will appoint pro-life justices when all of his actions point to the fact that he’s a womanizing animal does not make a candidate pro-life.

You could have said “we endorse no one this year.”

You made a mistake.

Repent.

Prolife protip:  If you want to be taken seriously, don’t go to the mat denying, excusing, and defending sexual predators.

The stony silence of Mike Pence, Fr. Pavone, and Fr. Peter West speaks loudly.

Susan B Anthony List?  Hello?  You there?

And the loud braying of Sean Hannity in active defense of that sex predator is eloquent about what really matters to FOX.  But then Roger Ailes is a sex predator too, isn’t he.  How prolife can you get?
