Occasionally Operation Rescue likes to share various opinions from around the pro-life movement. Please enjoy these as a challenge to think differently about how we, as a movement, can work together to end child killing.
Thank you,

As Donald Trump and J.D. Vance try to win over swing voters, some pro-life leaders are busy dispiriting pro-life voters.

By: Steven Mosher

At this moment in American history, when life is on the line, when we are just under 60 days from Election Day, it is political insanity to attack Donald Trump on the pro-life issue.

Now, I am not going to imply that Lila Rose is a communist, as James Lindsay did. But to suggest that the Trump-Vance ticket does not “stand for pro-life principles,” and that pro-lifers should withhold their votes, as Lila did, is equally outrageous. In an interview with Politico published on Thursday, Lila Rose said she “would not vote for Harris or Trump” if the election were held today and said there are “other candidates” and even “write-in candidates.”

Such comments are a priceless gift to Kamala’s campaign. Expect interviews on CNN, MSNBC, and other regime media to follow as they use Rose to demonize Trump and demoralize pro-life voters into staying home on Election Day.

Everyone needs to remember that this is the pro-life president who spoke at the March for Life rally in Washington, D.C., had many pro-lifers in top positions, and pursued a host of pro-life policies at home and abroad. This is the pro-life president whose Supreme Court appointments overturned Roe v. Wade. The federal government is no longer forcing the states to allow mothers to murder their children, and 22 have partial or complete bans in place.

Finally, this is the once-and-future pro-life president who is all that stands in the way of Kamala Harris. If she gets into office, she will pack the Supreme Court with pro-abortion justices, Roe v. Wade will be brought back, and abortion on demand up to — and beyond — birth will be the law of the land for another two generations.

I like Steven Mosher, I do. But in this it is not Lila Rose that is the problem, but Donald Trump. In this election we now have TWO pro-choice politicians, one rabidly so and one moderately so. Trump did the alienating as a political choice that he willingly made to maybe get himself elected. If he is worried about losing pro-life voters he can figure out how to get some of them back.

As to the pro-life movement, we are in bad shape mostly because of high quality pro-death propaganda and is thinking when the Supreme Court ruled that we won. We’re in a mess and it will be a mess whether Harris or Trump wins. We might, and I say this fearfully, be better off if Harris wins, not that I could vote for her.

My apologies for posting the Operation Rescue article here. I don't tend to see the world as either Catholic or Protestant, and especially not when it comes to the pro-life movement. I tend to see the movement as 'one'. So, it never occurred to me that this article might be seen as offensive. And it was forwarded to me by my very traditional Catholic pro-life ministry leader, so I didn't think twice about the Catholic vs Protestant issue. But I can see now how you, or anyone else here, might be upset at the criticism of Lila Rose as she is Catholic, and Operation Rescue is not a Catholic organization. Again, my apologies.

No debate (promise!) ... but I am curious:
Why do you think the pro-life movement might be 'better off' if Harris wins?

Just a hunch. The blood of the martyrs are the seeds of the Church. Oppression tends to strengthen. And in four years the Republicans could pick someone else. Of course it could all get so much worse.

No. It was good to post it. I didn’t see it as Catholic vs Protestant at all.

Are you referring to the aborted babies in heaven? I'm sure they can intercede for us. I think we ultimately leave it to the mercy of God.

I'm glad to hear my post wasn't offensive that way.
I'd not want to offend anyone, but sometimes it does happen, accidentally.

I wasn't referring to them, but there is that, more intercessors.
