Proselytize Religion
From Reddit
As a community with an interest in providing the best resources to its members, the following wiki links are provided as historical reference until we can establish our own.
Now the Republicans are whining about people who checks notes want to have kids but can't? After forcing abortion bans on the rest of us? It's like pick a lane you fucking gang of hypocrites.
Maybe they should try some f'n problem solving and get the IVF folks with the 'want to abort their kid" folks.
Pretty cool of this guy to inform us there's an ongoing assault on God... Where can we sign up, y'know, to help with the cause? He left that part out.
This is total war. Just by being alive, you're in the fight. I'm out on the front lines every day, sending relief money instead of prayers when there are people in need, wishing people "Happy Holidays" at Christmas time, and saying, "out evil spirit! In the name of Zoroaster I banish thee" instead of "bless you" when someone sneezes.
Us curing any diseases or other things is the exact same thing. I guess everything we have created to help extend life is a war against God's plan.
The dude wears glasses; if they didn't have hypocrisy they'd have nothing.

Every prayer for action is an attempt to get God to change his divine plan because you think your plan is better.
At the very least, praying is patting God on the back & saying 'keep up the good work'.
I honestly think this is actually logically consistent with an anti-abortion position.
His issue is that IVF creates multiple embryos, but not all of them are implanted. Instead the extras are either frozen or destroyed and following anti-abortion logic, that would be incarceration or murder respectively.
Just for the record, I don't agree with the guy. I'm just in awe of this tiny sliver of logical consistency from a Republican. It's like seeing a rare animal years after it was considered extinct.
Surely that's God's problem, isn't it?
Does this guy think that poor little unfortunate God needs his protection?
I didn't know it was possible to wage a war on an omnipotent being.
Maybe he's not that omnipotent.
So, don’t use IVF because it makes frozen embryos, but the only way for frozen embryos to become a person is though IVF, which he’s against….
Dude makes my brain hurt.
