The cognitive dissonance required to be anti-abortion (“saving” babies) and anti-vaccine, risking children’s lives and health through exposure to vaccine-preventable diseases is staggering.
We’ve seen babies suffer and die with RSV. And measles. All preventable. Help us understand how bringing babies into the world just to put their lives at risk in 100 different ways is Christian, healthy, etc. because it just seems ghoulish and evil.

The truth is, they don't care about babies. They care about controlling women and women who have reproductive choice are harder to control. It's much easier to control someone you can keep pregnant and nursing and tied to a baby that needs care 24/7.

Yep. They love to wail, "But whay if the baby you abort would have grown up to cure cancer!", but then they're firing and defunding people who are actually curing cancer.
It was never about saving babies to the ones in charge. It was always about controlling women's reproduction and sexuality.

Ghoulish and evil; now those are the Christians I'm familiar with. Look at Christianity's political history; when people invoke Christianity as their politics, the most horrible genocides happen. My country's greatest atrocities, as well as America's, all were done in the name of Christianity

It’s not about children, it’s about control. If it were about children we’d at least have prenatal care for the people forced to have them, maybe parenting classes or even programs to ensure nutrition - but we don’t, because it’s never been about kids or health it’s always been about control.
