This is what I said about it, knowing my family believes that God can help someone rise above any challenge.
"Compassionate people who believe in a God of love do see that He can heal all wounds, yet somehow, I think this is asking too much in some cases and there should be a choice."

Consider the question.
Natasha Jordan asks - Is it sinking in yet?
They all (republicans) want women to carry to term and have their rapists baby, while they heal from being beaten, tortured, stabbed and sometimes even shot. It does not ...matter if she is near death or not. It does not matter if it was even her own father who got her pregnant. The Republican's made it an official part of their party platform for the convention. No abortion for rape or incest. Can you imagine if this happens? Your daughter, girlfriend, sister, mother or wife or even YOU would be forced by law to give birth. FORCED by LAW.
I suggest you start paying attention. This is NOT 'smaller' government to barbarically force ANY woman or young girl to do this. This is not the role our government should be taking. People need jobs. Our roads and bridges built in 1950 need repair, our children need better education, our poor and veteran's need our help. This is not the party of what is good for the people of our nation. This is the party of false morality, because once you are born, you do not matter.
