Planned parenthood is not the issue here though. The issue is morals. They can't use the word eugenics anymore, the results remain the same however. |

Not even the Catholic Church while it engages in it? Or should it just be brushed aside and declared "non-Christian" behavior by the top Christian organization in the West? Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Not judging by the numbers of Christians who engage in it, including too many of the "infallible" kind. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Absolutely.
When you read the huge list of Catholic heresies and how silly some of them are, you realize that the Church sought to control every thought a member of the Church had. My ex priest friend mentions it often, that he was a member if the 'thought police' when he was a Catholic priest. I think it's one of the major problems he had with the job. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christian_heresies If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

America was founded both by taking land and built up by slavery. But there were some good things. And the Catholic Church still practices bigotry and discrimination to this day because of some of its practices. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

You answer the last question. Which religion do you believe should have say over everything in declaring moral authority. And all other religions and the rest of us godless heathens should subscribe to it? You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

America was founded by slave owners who thought they were following good morals. Rome was founded by a fratricidal egomaniac who drew preferentially outlaws to his community, he then expanded his city by kidnapping Sabine women. The republican party was founded, in part, by a soft bigot who wanted to send all "coloreds" back to Africa. Do I go on? Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
