Trump Delivers Historic Pro-Life Speech But Goofs As He Congratulates Homosexual Republicans

U.S.
President Donald Trump criticized U.S. abortion laws as among the most
permissive in the world in a speech to pro-life marchers at the annual March
for Life in Washington, D.C., on Friday, and pledged his administration would
always defend the right to life.
Trump became the first sitting
president to address the March for Life, which was holding its 45th event since
the creation by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973 of the right to abortion in its
Roe v. Wade decision. Murder of babies through abortion is legally allowed in
the U.S. since conception until the delivery day.
Since 1973, legal abortion has killed
an estimated 60 million unborn U.S. children — a true American
Holocaust.
Planned
Parenthood, the leading abortion industry in the United States, receives
annually 1 billion dollars from American taxpayers. But, because pro-life
efforts are gaining momentum in the Trump era, congressional plans will
probably eliminate roughly half a billion dollars, so that Planned Parenthood
will have just half of its financial resources from American taxpayers.
Trump
delivered a historic pro-life speech to a crowd at the Rose Garden at the White
House. His speech was broadcast to the nearby National Mall, where an estimated
100,000 gathered to mark and mourn the advent of legalized abortion in America.
Trump
said, “You come from many backgrounds, many places but you come for one
beautiful cause. You come to build a society where life is loved, protected and
cherished. … You are a movement born out of love.”
“We
know that life is the greatest miracle of all,” the president continued. “We
see it in the eyes of every new mother who cradles that newborn child in her
loving arms.”
“That
is why we march, that is why we pray, that is why we declare that America’s
future will be filled with goodness, peace, joy, dignity and life for every
child of God,” he said.
Trump lamented that the United States
is one of only seven countries in the world that allows elective abortions
after 20 weeks.
“As
you all know, Roe vs. Wade has resulted in some of the most permissive abortion
laws anywhere in the world,” Trump told the crowd.
“For example, in the United States,
it’s one of only seven countries to allow elective late-term abortions, along
with China, North Korea, and others,” the president said. “Right now in a
number of states, the laws allow a baby to be born from his or her mother’s
womb in the ninth month. It is wrong. It has to change.” (As recognized by the
DailyMail, Trump “goofed as he complained about laws allowing babies to be
‘born’ in 9th month of pregnancy.”)
“Under
my administration, we will always defend the very first right in the
Declaration of Independence and that is the right to life,” said he.
Trump’s
great pro-life speech would have been enough to galvanize conservatives who
support his conservative policies. But, in this same week, he also
congratulated the Log Cabin Republicans, the largest group representing LGBT
“conservatives,” on their fortieth anniversary.
“I send my congratulations to the Log
Cabin Republicans on the celebration of your 40th anniversary,” wrote Trump in
his letter to the homosexual Republican group. “We are a Nation founded on the
undeniable truth that all of us are created equal. We are equal in the eyes of
our Creator. We are equal under the law. And we are all equal under our
Constitution.”
Trump’s speech justifying homosexual
behavior as equal is in conflict with Creator’s clear will in his Word, the
Bible, but it is very
similar to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech, who equally has
advocated a pro-sodomy right-wing stance.
The Creator condemns 100 percent
homosexuality and he does not celebrate nor congratulates homosexuals. He warns
them.
Yet, Trump’s record on abortion has
been much better than Netanyahu’s record. While under Trump abortion has faced
resistance, under
Netanyahu abortion has advanced in Israel.
Because
of the pervasive corrosive influence of the Left, even right-wing movements
have become ambivalent and disunited on major issues where the Left has been
decisive and united. While Netanyahu’s administration has been ambivalent on
abortion and sodomy, the Trump administration has been ambivalent only on
sodomy.
Trump concluded his congratulation to
the Log Cabin Republicans by saying, “No matter the color of our skin or our
sexual orientation, we all live under the same laws, salute the same great
American flag, and are made in the image of the same Almighty God. As we write
the next great chapter of our Nation, we reaffirm our commitment to these
fundamental truths and will work to ensure that all Americans live in a country
where they feel safe and where their opportunities are limitless.”
A
picture of the letter was posted to the Log Cabin Republicans’ official
Twitter account on Wednesday, while Richard Grenell, Trump’s nominee for
ambassador to Germany, announced on Twitter that he’s “waited a long time to
have a GOP President with this kind of leadership.”
Grenell
is a “gay” activist who advocates for homosexual “marriage” as a “conservative”
issue. He criticizes “loud religious right activists” who oppose homosexuality and touts
Trump’s uniquely pro-LGBT credentials as a Republican. He was an early Trump
supporter.
Grenell,
who lives in Los Angeles, reportedly has a long-term homosexual partner, Matt
Lashey.
Grenell is pro-life and has worked over the years to help pro-life advocates at
the UN, according to one veteran pro-life advocate involved in international
issues.
But
when it comes to homosexuality, Grenell calls for greater “tolerance” in the
Republican Party despite the party’s clear and longstanding platform language opposing “rights” and
“marriage” based on aberrant sex.
In a Feb.
3, 2017, podcast with FOX News reporter Shannon
Bream, he said, “I am gay, I am a Christian and I am still a man of faith.”
In
the interview, Grenell demonstrates precisely the sort of pro-homosexual
advocacy that inspires opposition among Christians who accept the age-old biblical
proscription
against homosexual behavior.
“I
know I was born this way,” he emphatically told Bream.
Grenell
told Bream that he grew up in a strongly Christian home and went to an
Assemblies of God college. He cited his “liberating” experience attending
Harvard graduate school and talking with the late homosexual pastor Peter
Gomes.
As the professor of Christian Morals at Harvard Divinity School, Gomes
condemned alleged Christian “homophobia” and used his prestigious perch to
rebut the religious case against homosexuality.
In
the same vein, Grenell told Bream that biblical passages that historically have
been interpreted as clearly proscribing homosexual practice actually do not
mean that. The first chapter of the New Testament Book of Romans is one such passage.
“For
so many Christians that I grew up with, they were focused on verses in the
Bible that talked about homosexuality as a negative thing. And when you go back
in and actually look at the original words for these verses, it wasn’t about
being homosexual at all. It was about being deviant, or a prostitute,” he said.
“And so there was no thought that you were going to be able to have a committed
[homosexual] relationship.”
Robert Gagnon,
a former associate professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological
Seminary and the world’s leading academic authority on the Bible and
homosexuality from an orthodox (conservative) Christian perspective, specifically
rejects Grenell’s thesis that the Bible does
not condemn homosexual relationships.
The information on Grenell is from
Peter LaBarbera, founder and president of Americans for Truth about
Homosexuality.
On
Trump congratulating the Log Cabin Republicans, LaBarbera remarked on Facebook
that Trump congratulated “a homosexual activist group whose entire mission has
been to normalize sodomy (homosexual behavior) as a ‘civil right,’ within the
GOP — thus subverting the Republican Party platform. This would be like Trump
congratulating the (pro-abortion) group Republicans For Choice.”
He
added, “Pro-abort Republicans are free to vote GOP, and they do, but their
organizations don’t get recognized and celebrated by the President. It should
be the same for pro-homosexual Republicans.”
Following LaBarbera’s argument, the
title of this article could also be “Trump Delivers Historic Anti-Sodomy Speech
But Goofs As He Congratulates Pro-Abortion Republicans.”
LaBarbera
also said, “Too bad for Trump and the RNC that God doesn’t make an exception
for ‘Republican’ immorality.”
Trump
can condemn abortion, but if he makes an exception for “Republican” immorality,
this is not a good example of conservatism, not to mention Christianity.
He
could also condemn sodomy and make an exception for Republican pro-abortion
stances, and this would be equally against true conservatism and Christianity.
Obama
or Hillary Clinton would have supported homosexuality and abortion, in a full
leftist “victory” for the evil. Trump opted just for a partial conservative
victory: he condemned abortion — which all true conservative presidents have
done —, but he has spared sodomy, advancing a leftist “victory” to satisfy
Republican homosexuals disguised as “conservative.”
Why
does Trump want to condemn abortion without condemning sodomy? Even George
Washington, the first U.S. president, condemned homosexuality. Why does not
Trump want to follow his good example?
The great danger of Trump’s example
is the advance of a pro-life movement that advances the homosexual agenda among
conservatives.
Pro-abortion
and pro-sodomy people are free to vote conservative politicians. But
conservative politicians should never celebrate pro-abortion and pro-sodomy
people.
Abortion
and sodomy destroy a nation. If Trump condemns and fights both, he saves
America. If he saves one of these perversions, America will not be spared from
her fate.
If
Trump intends to advance a pro-life culture, he has God’s blessings. But if he
intends to advance a sodomy culture at the expense of God’s commands, he will
do what Sodom was unable to do.
