Christian Socialism and the Religious left

[ApatheticAustrian]

i thought the teachings of Jesus are in general - for a layman - always easier to combine with a left-ish worldview than a ryan-ite one, even while i ofc realize that the abortion debate is much more heated and front-and-center in the US.

denying the divinity....like mister trump's inauguration preacher heretic lady?

besides the minor divinity question, i would think of the abortion/death penatly question to be of much more practical consequence.

as far as i am concerned people who approve of the death penalty are automatically heretics, but i am pretty sure most would think of abortion-"realists" like myself in a similar matter.

Not to derail the thread, and I am in no way interested in a debate on abortion, but "abortion realism" as a concept (undefined) has a way of turning my stomach primarily because of its appeal to practicality (as much as I myself am wont to dismiss most other political aims on the basis of their impracticality).

i understand your feelings and i am in no way trying to be edgy/offensive - it's just my sincere belief, that the only real way to prevent/decrease the number of abortions is increasing the qualify of life standards in a society as a whole - and i am not a big supporter of switching safe clinics woth coat hooks.

there are many many many different ways to decrease the number of abortions without shutting down clinics or pressue the mothers.
