Feel free to have any opinion you want to.This is an incredibly divisive issue that loses votes for the R party every election cycle and that pisses me off. Disconnect this issue from the President and get everyone to weigh in and then everyone can STFU and it will be decided specific to each state. Don't like what your state decided? Move. At the federal level, small government - which is preferred in fiscal conservatism - should not be in people's personal medical decisions ever. Government is designed to be there to make and apply law for every citizen/religion/opinion and for common infrastructure.
Regardless of what anyone decides - if you don't think abortion is OK - then don't have one. Then you will be good with your God.

This is a complete misrepresentation of people of faith. It's not just, "I didn't have an abortion, so I'm good." The Bible commands people to stand up for the rights of the less fortunate. Focusing solely on your own actions and ignoring the violation of rights of others would actually be disobedience to God.
Proverbs 31:8-9 ESV
[8] Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute. [9] Open your mouth, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy.
You can stand up for your opinion/religion but you can't force that opinion/religion on other people no more than jews/muslims/hindus can force their religion on you without a gun to your head. Any law has to apply to all. The same as if muslims become the majority you won't just accept Sharia. Government shouldn't be in the personal decision making + religion business.

The Republic exists to protect the rights of the people, and one of those rights is the right to life.
We can vote on candidates for office and on laws. But we cannot vote on whether or not to deprive people of their rights.
Bodily autonomy is also a human right. You deprive one right to protect another. This is a no win.
Amen!!
