I have friends across the world, from many worldviews and across the political spectrum from conservative to liberal, from green to socialist and even a couple communist friends. But many agree that we live in one of the most divisive times in the history of our nation. There are several reasons for this, but one is the issue of abortion. Most republicans want it to be rare, or eliminated. And actually most democrats want it to be rare too, but still want a woman to be free to have one or not have one if she is in serious difficulties.
Many of my Republican friends have felt and said that some positions and statements of the Republican establishment are repugnant to them. But they can’t consider supporting any other political organization, because there is nothing more evil than abortion (as well as certain other issues fears of Marxism, secularism, etcc). For example.
–When you’ve got millions upon millions of (unborn) human beings being killed, ending that great evil should really take precedence over ending other evils and injustices in your society. Anything less and your values are really messed up. Peter K, a Christian leader who speaks on many university campuses.
–“I think it pretty evil if you vote and support for murder of innocents.” Kathy C.
–“The left is for abortion, just try to defend that.” Nancy C
–“Every Christian should vote Republican. Here’s why….Democrats are wholesale, 100% committed to killing babies…” Glenn B
My friends from other political perspectives see a myriads of dangers from following many anti-biblical and anti-human policies that the modern republican party has indisputably embraced including greed (giving trillions to the elite/super wealthy for no work done, which strictly forbidden by the Bible and is the most lethal form of socialism by far and a main cause of abortion since many of these elite donate the government handouts they receive to abortion clinics), constant warfare, racism, environmental destruction and others as many experts have shown, in stark opposition and betrayal of its admirable origins in abolition. But they often feel frustrated and/or exhausted in trying to show republicans how much abuse the policies their party is advocating are causing in many lives.
The problem with the well intentioned, but severely misguided views of republicans is basically this. According to Bible principles and science, the policies the republican party is following are the top cause of all the fears of republican Christians including abortion, but also Marxism and secularism and more. Below are documented facts on the abortion topic which prove that the republican party is the biggest cause of abortion on earth (and facts on other issues will be documented in other articles***) and is in stark opposition to many policies of God regarding government.
TOP 15 FACTS THAT PROVE REPUBLICANS ARE THE #1 CAUSE OF ABORTION
FACT #1: The Bible says that greed causes all evil (1 Tim. 6:10), brings grief to families (Prov. 15:27), causes fighting/violence and death (Prov. 28:25, Ez. 45:9, Is. 5:7,8, Hab. 2:5) and much more evil. This means that greed is the top cause of abortion, Marxism, secularism, racism, environmental destruction and all other evils. Any party which follows policies of greed is complicit and responsible for being the root cause of every evil where they have power and influence.
As will be shown below, republicans are the top party of greed. They give trillions to the wealthy for no work done, an act which is the most destructive form of socialism that exists, socialist welfare for the rich and strictly forbidden by God. This causes abortion because it grinds millions of families into poverty where they have no financial resources to take care of another life, and it also funds many of the biggest anti-Christians on earth, who often donate these extra funds to abortion clinics. Thus republicans are for many reasons, the top cause of abortion in American and on planet earth.
FACT #2: God required that both Israeli and pagan kings/governments follow justice and defend the rights of the poor and oppressed so they can live decent lives(Jeremiah 22:1-5, 13:17, 1 Kings 10:9 (see also 2 Chron. 9:8) Deut. 16:20, Prov. 14:34, Psalms 72:1-4,12-14, Psalm 89:3-4/Eph. 5:1, Is. 10:1-4, Daniel 4:27 Ezekiel 16:49, Jonah 3, Jer. 12:14-17, and many others). They were supposed to follow policies to help as many as possible become independent and self-supporting (this is actually what authentic socialism that was pioneered by Jews and Christians emphasizes and it’s why places like Denmark have much lower abortion rates AND much lower unemployment rates than America..much modern socialism has abandoned the foundations of genuine socialism sadly). Families that are poor make up ~75% of the cases of abortion. So again, because republicans reject justice at government levels in many ways, esp. justice for the poor, they are the top cause of abortion.
FACT #3: Republican policies don’t align with the criteria that God says we should follow in supporting political leaders. God gives many criteria for political leaders. The most basic one is that we must not support leaders who are greedy, promiscuous or ignorant of God’s laws (Deut. 17:17-21). One reason is because a leader who will betray his wife and family for sex, and his friends or customers for greed will have no problem betraying his whole country. He will certainly have no qualms about instituting policies that will cause far more babies to be aborted, that is if he even understand them. A leader who is ignorant of God’s law will certainly be very easy for corrupt people to manipulate, including those pushing for abortion, similar to Darius in Persia who almost caused the death of his most trusted advisor, Daniel, because he was ignorant of the laws of God about the worship of men.
Leaders that are greedy, promiscuous and ignorant of God’s law will be able to manipulate by those who want more abortions. This is what is happening with Trump.
FACT #4: God says that giving to the wealthy causes poverty (Prov. 22:16). Republicans have for decades been giving billions and trillions yearly to the wealthy for no work done for decades. This is called trickle down economics and they claim it creates jobs. It objectively does not. And it is actually the most egregiously abusive form of socialism, socialist welfare for the rich). Greed and poverty together are a huge cause of abortion.
FACT #5: Poverty is a top factor in ~75% of abortions. Greed and giving to the wealthy are the top cause of poverty and thus the top cause of abortion.
FACT #6: Research has shown that abortions under Republicans skyrocket by between 40% to 300% on average, depending on country. Stanford researchers found that in 26 countries during republican administrations “abortion rates rose among women in countries highly exposed…a rise of approximately 40%.” Dr. Yana Rodgers from Rutgers analyzed abortion rates around the world under republican administrations which slash funding for women’s health care clinics worldwide and her research showed that under Republicans, “Analyzing abortion data from 51 developing countries between 2001 and 2008 — which encompassed the reproductive decisions of about 6.3 million women — I found that women in Latin America were three times more likely to have an abortion” and in Africa it was two times higher. These are some of the references for the above facts:

FACT #7: UNDER REPUBLICANS RECENTLY
The conservative organization “The Heritage Center” acknowledges that the highest number of abortions ever reported in US history happened in 2017-18, which is of course when Trump was president.
“Planned Parenthood affiliates performed 345,672 abortions from Oct. 1, 2017, to Sept. 30, 2018—the highest number of abortions ever reported in a single year.”
https://www.heritage.org/life/commentary/planned-parenthood-sets-new-record-abortions-single-year
FACT #8: UNDER DEMOCRATS RECENTLY
The CDC, Focus on the Family and other organizations have shown that the lowest rates of abortion happened under Obama. Looking at graphs from the CDC shows that the biggest decreases in 20 years have been under Obama with ~2-5% decreases every year he was in office.
“All statistics measuring abortion in the U.S. — the rate, the ratio to live births, and the absolute number — reached a “historic low” in 2016, according to new data released Wednesday from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-abortion-rate-number-of-abortions-in-us-hits-historic-low-per-centers-for-disease-control-study-today-2019-11-27/
See also the CDC’s 2015 Abortion Surveillance Report. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/67/ss/ss6713a1.htm
“In 2015, the number of abortions was at its lowest since 1976 – and had dropped almost in half in the last 20 years.” https://www.focusonthefamily.com/socialissues/life-issues/dignity-of-human-life/abortion-statistics
“Abortion rates in the U.S. have reached a historic low, according to new numbers released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Wednesday. According to the report, the decline in abortions was seen in women across all age groups. For women ages 15 to 44, the abortion rate (the number of abortions per 1,000 women) dropped 26% between 2006 and 2015, the most recent year for which data is available. This translates to a significant drop in the yearly number of abortions over the decade ending in 2015. In 2006, medical professionals reported performing 842,855 abortions. By 2015, that number dropped to 638,169, according to the CDC. The drop in abortions was especially pronounced among teenagers…From 2006 to 2015, the abortion rate for women ages 15 to 19 dropped by more than half.”

FACT #9: Republicans are the top cause of abortion in 5 major ways:
1) God says that greed causes all evil (1 Tim. 6:10), forbids favoring the wealthy (Lev. 19:15), and forbids giving money to the wealthy (Prov. 22:16), says that “Greed brings grief to the whole family” (Prov. 15:27), “Greed causes fighting” (Prov. 28:25), greed…causes violence (Ez. 45:9, Is. 5:7,8), “Greedy people are…like death itself…” and ruin nations (Hab. 2:5), we should not be surprised that abortions are highest under republicans. Gandhi similarly said that poverty is the worst crime, and mountains of research confirms that greed and poverty are the roots of every evil you can think of, including abortion.
But the republican party has completely ignored all these and many other Bible principles. For over 100 years, and esp. since the 1980s, it has been giving trillions to the wealthy, which is the most destructive form of welfare, welfare for the rich. But this makes everyone else poor just as God stated in the Bible. And when girls can’t figure out how to pay for a baby financially, the main other option is abortion.
The trickle down economics nonsense of Reagan, the Bushes and Trump is just one of the most evil economic deceptions in all history (as well as their corporate free trade nonsense). It has caused the gutting of the middle class and is putting millions of families in debt and desperation.

And this greed that causes extreme poverty for many is the top cause of poverty. Even Focus on the family acknowledges that poverty is a top cause of abortion.
“financial questions are a leading concern for women facing an unplanned pregnancy. For example, prominent abortion researcher Tracy Weitz told the independent news site ProPublica that “most women are having an abortion because they say they can’t afford to have a child.”

https://www.focusonthefamily.com/pro-life/abortion-and-poverty-relationships-are-key
FACT #10: Republicans are the top cause of wars on planet earth and wars cause families to be destabilized and unable to support themselves and thus to choose abortions far more often. There have been 93 War Years under Democratic presidents, for 46.5%. There have been 107 War Years under Republican presidents, for 53.5%. There have been 30 “defensive” Democratic war years (~15% of total) and 25 “defensive” Republican war years (~12.5% ), 64 “offensive” Democratic war years (~32%) and 81 “offensive” Republican war years (~40.5%) https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/7/19/1549622/-Are-Democratic-presidents-more-warlike-than-Republicans
FACT #11: Republican greed and heavy support of corporations is what funds a lot of Hollywood promotion of sex before marriage, promotes affairs and divorce, promotes destroying families and other anti-Christian concepts.
FACT #12: Republicans are the top funders of the biggest donors to abortion clinics such as Warren Buffet who is the most hardcore funder of abortion on earth and many corporations. Trump alone gave ~$29 billion to Warren Buffet as well as hundreds of billions to corporations that are the top donors to abortion clinics worldwide. Buffet consistently gives large chunks of his money to fund abortion and is the biggest source of funding for abortion in America. “Buffett donated $1,230,585,161 to abortion groups worldwide from 2001 to 2012”

And where do they get a lot of their money? From gigantic Republican tax cuts for the wealthy and myriads of loopholes for the wealthy that allow them to scam the government.

FACT #13: Republicans oppose health care and ethical welfare for the middle class and poor. This is a massive cause of abortion. Countries that provide health care and welfare for the poor have far lower rates of abortion.
Abortion rates in the Netherlands are far lower than the US. “Abortion rate among teenagers is low and decreasing (3,181 in 2014).” https://www.rutgers.international/sites/rutgersorg/files/PDF/RHRN-HLPF_A4leaflet_NL.pdf
Percentage wise it has been 10-12 per 1000 women for many years.
www.johnstonsarchive.net/policy/abortion/ab-netherlands.html
Northern Europe has an average of 17 abortions per 1000 women, while America has an average of 19 per 1000 women.
https://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/abortion-around-the-world-where-are-rates-highest/4/
http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/policy/abortion/ab-norway.html
www.johnstonsarchive.net/policy/abortion/ab-unitedstates.html
https://www.cdc.gov/teenpregnancy/about/index.htm
One huge reason for this is Northern Europe’s free/cheap health care and social network. Republican economics try to obliterate programs designed to help the poor survive. This is a stark betrayal of its values and supposed concern for fetuses and children. It is the simplest logic to understand that a girl who gets pregnant and has no way to take care of a baby economically, no low cost or free health care, is going to be far more likely to consider an abortion than one who can find a way to economically support a new life. This is why the socialist democracies of northern Europe have a lot fewer abortions on average percentagewise than America does.
Yet, republicans are trying to destroy health care. This is hypocrisy of the highest order. The only legitimate and biblical way to deny government health care is by giving every family land rights outside a city so they can provide for their own needs.
FACT #14: Republicans heavily support corporate greed. This demolishes family freedom. Corporate propaganda convinces many people to waste money on useless things instead of spending it on evangelism and families. Here are some statistics on that from a major missions site:
–Evangelical Christians could provide all of the funds needed to plant a church in each of the 6,900 unreached people groups with only 0.03% of their income.
–“The Church has roughly 3,000 times the financial resources and 9,000 times the manpower needed to finish the Great Commission.”
–Problem: “Americans have recently spent more money buying Halloween costumes for their pets than the amount given to reach the unreached.”
www.thetravelingteam.org/stats/
Of course, if people spent money on helping families instead of trivial stupidities, they could stop nearly all abortions as well.
FACT #15: This documentary shows that both republican and democratic parties have heavily supported abortion in different ways, from many experts on the topics:
MAAFA 21 THE BLACK HOLOCAUST
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsxwRJZfmMM
You can deny the DOCUMENTED FACTS that Republicans cause more abortion than any other organization on earth. But they are indisputable by God’s standards of truth and those of academia. But if you do, you only support more abortion, death and violence, you are in complete rebellion against God and what He claimed as well as all of objective science and in complete denial of truth, which btw, is what always leads to the worst and most totalitarian dictatorships. Dr. Timothy Snyder studied how many populations went into totalitarianism. He said it usually happens this way:
Step one: The political leaders lie all the time.
Step two: They claim it’s their opponents and the journalists who lie.
Step three: Everyone looks around and says, “What is truth? There is no truth.
And then, resistance is impossible, and the game is over. “
I have much more data to prove the point than the above….but the key issue is that politics won’t stop abortion. It hasn’t for decades. Abortion was actually lowest under Obama in 2015, but far from stopped. Only the church following Bible economics has any hope of vastly reducing or stopping it, because just as God said, only the church or people following Bible economics have ever stopped poverty (see 1 Kings 4:25, Acts 2:42-47, Acts 4:32-35). And see these links:
http://blog.truth-is-life.org/rights/jubilee-economics/
http://blog.truth-is-life.org/real-independence/crises-solutions/ http://blog.truth-is-life.org/rights/thrive/land-rights-most-crucial-for-freedom/
Capitalism is a huge cause of abortion because it is completely against most principles of Bible economics (some listed here: http://www.jubilee-centre.org/the-divine-economy-by-paul-mills/) and makes a few people very rich and forces multitudes into poverty or debt or both where girls see no way to take care of a baby and so are heavily pressured into abortions.You can’t be consistently opposed to abortion and support capitalism. Similarly you can’t support the liberal idea equality for all and abortion at the same time. Both are like being a Christian and supporting atheism…or saying you support freedom for all while owning slaves. Utter and completely hypocrisy.
But it’s not just a black holocaust. Racism and abortion targeted at minorities is real, but it’s even more targeted at the poor of all races (wealthy whites, blacks and Asians have far fewer abortions than the poor do in each race). So it’s also a poor/low education holocaust.
But racism, abortion, and all other injustices are intentionally caused by the super rich and powerful corporations that want to distract people from their greed and theft from the common people that is in the trillions of dollars every single year. They want to do anything they can to distract people from that crime of greed which according to God is the root of all others…so inciting populations with every form of prejudice and group think and discrimination possible is a great way for them to distract people from the core problem. So they provoke every conflict imaginable, husbands against wives, conservatives against liberals, black vs. white vs. Asian vs hispanic, Darwinians vs. creationists, gay vs. straight, American vs. foreigners, men against women, old against young, military against pacifists, and so many others. And it works quite effectively because they have first eradicated a knowledge of how to find truth from the minds of 95%+ of people.
So, to sum up because the Bible says greed is the root of all evil (1 Tim. 6:10), and republicans are COMPLETELY sold out to greed, more than any other party in the world and probably all human history. Thus the republican party is the number one source of abortion and every other evil on earth. VAST research confirms this in so many areas.
