Christian Taliban celebrating abortion ban.

I'm on the religious subreddits on Reddit.

Christian conservatives are all celebrating this news, pretending like it will save millions of children's lives. They don't care that women will be hunted down. They don't care that more abortions and dead women will happen. They don't care that Nazi Germany did a law just like this.

They just want people to suffer.

There really is no difference between Christian Conservatives and the Taliban, Al Qaeda, ISIS. Just as morally bankrupt and evil, prettier packaging.

Just to be clear. Many of the loudest anti-abortion idiots in my area of Texas are Catholic, and the majority of those are Hispanic.

Perhaps, Evangelical Radicalism is sufficient?
