Everyone wants to expel Christians from the tent. The Left hates us, for obvious reasons (Antonio Gramsci has them trained well). The Libertarians hate us because we have that pesky pro-life position. The atheists hate us, because we insert our values into the public sphere and its debates.

For the record, I don’t want Roe v. Wade overturned, since it is a fact that it does happen that a choice is forced between a mother and the baby. I know of two instances of this, and even the priest correctly said to save the mother. There is a moral method to it and it’s called saving life even if sometimes it may mean taking one too. And we can make the case among ourselves not to use abortion as a means of birth control, leaving the wider society to go its own way on that one (however we disagree with it).

If you want the Christians expelled from the tent, you are going to lose a lot of people.
