The world is moving so fast these days that the man who says it can't be done
is generally interrupted by someone doing it.

Trump, Schumer and other economically illiterate politicians hype China's currency manipulation. China's currency has appreciated vs USD.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 23, 2017
In fact, China recently acted to defend its plunging yuan. Why if the only motivation is to undercut the dollar to sell exported goods?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 23, 2017
When it comes to manipulating currency, the Fed knows how to do it. The series of interest rate increases serves to strengthen US currency.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 23, 2017

It's disingenuous when the pro-aborts ignore the fact that the Ten Commandments prohibit murder, lying, and stealing, but none of these ideologues argue that laws against them involve imposing Jewish/Christian ethics on others.
Abortion was clearly seen as sinful in the context of the Old Testament, and there can be no serious doubt where Jesus stood on the practice: Jesus loved the little children (e.g., Mt 19:14) and even opposed the use of sanctioned violence against sinful women. (Rome practiced abortion and infanticide, but it was not an acceptable practice in Israel, so it's hardly surprising that Jesus' opposition is not recorded in the Gospel.) But the fact is that the Didache, one of the earliest Christian writings which experts have dated from the first century, explicitly condemned abortion. One would expect the early Christians, evangelizing beyond Israel in the Roman Empire even to Rome, would confront the issue. And the Didache expresses no ambiguity about abortion and sexual promiscuity tolerated in Roman society.
Abortion is not a religious issue but a moral one. I think the reason I've addressed the point is that pro-abort Christians in Name Only are trying to rationalize subordinating their faith to their political ideology. (They've also distorted Scriptures to portray Christ as anti-market, which is a flat out lie. Christ never condemned wealth but an obsession with it.)
