Another Perspective

(Page 2 of 2)

You can total up all of the deaths that Wright and his ilk assign to the Imperial U.S. of A., and they wouldn't be a drop in the bucket next to the 40 million or so American children -- one third of whom were black -- whose lives have been brutally cut short by abortion and its supporters. And who are these supporters?

Well, the parent denomination of Wright and Obama's congregation, the United Church of Christ, for one. In a 1996 document, the UCC supported President Clinton's veto of the Partial Birth Abortion ban stating, "The directorate of the UCC's social action office first addressed the abortion issue in 1970, affirming freedom of choice for women, calling for church action supporting the repeal of overly restrictive abortion legislation and encouraging the expansion of sex education programs."

Wright has famously asked God to damn America and only time will tell if his invocation is worthy of God's ear. But one thing is certain; if we continue to elect politicians who would use racial hatred and class envy to hold people back; who would have us shrink in fear of "chickens coming home to roost" when confronted by our enemies; or would use His name to support the killing of unborn children; we will have damned ourselves.
