Kamala Harris - If you are Catholic do not apply

Is your 'oppressed' Christian providing a public service or are they part of a private institution that requires membership before service?

Should a Christian-owned business be required to post a sign on their entry? A sign that reads NO QUEERS ALLOWED

Christians could post

God and the Bible are honored above all things here.
 
There is no such a thing as legal violations of religious and civil rights on the basis of some twisted application of discrimination definitions.

WASHINGTON —
The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that a landmark civil rights law protects gay and transgender workers from workplace discrimination, handing the movement for L.G.B.T. equality a long-sought and unexpected victory.

OBVIOUSLY, you haven't read or heard of, the numerous court cases that Trump has lost or the ongoing cases where multiple women have accused him of molestation and/or sexual assault. It certainly looks like to the rational at least that his 'sins' have been proven in court.

Oh yeah, why is a Catholic woman suing the state of South Carolina and the Dept of Health and Human Services for religious discrimination?

I am not aware of the SC case and I am not aware of any laws requiring obedience to God's laws forbidding fornication in order to be eligible to serve in public office.
 
Biden scored another home run in the eyes of atheist democrats. Kamala Harris will make religion a cause for rejection of applications for government appointments.

Kamala Harris & Catholics: Senator Attacked Brian Buescher Nomination over Abortion & Knights of Columbus | National Review

Someone might want to remind Joe Biden, who’s just picked progressive California senator Kamala Harris as his running mate, that his vice-president-to-be believes Catholics are unfit to serve in our nation’s courts. (Biden, of course, as I considered at length on the homepage today, has spent his entire political career invoking his Catholic faith.)

Go figure, a democrat wanting pro-choice candidates for positions.

Yeah, Marke....real head scratcher.

If you perceive pro-choice to be anti-Catholic, that is your drama,

Abortion is cruel to unborn babies and wicked in God's sight.
 
Abortion is cruel to unborn babies and wicked in God's sight.

Feel free to follow your own interpretation of God's sight and not have an abortion.

Solved.
 
Abortion is cruel to unborn babies and wicked in God's sight.

When one actually reads the words, one might find that "God" doesn't much care for the unborn.

• A pregnant woman who is injured and has a miscarriage warrants financial compensation only - not to the woman but to her husband, suggesting that the fetus is property, not a person (Exodus 21:22-25).

• The priestly purity test which a wife accused of adultery must submit to will cause her to abort the fetus if she is guilty, which does appear to indicate that the fetus does not possess a right to life (Numbers 5:11-31).

• El laid out his punishments for disobedience, including "cursed shall be the fruit of your womb" and "you will eat the fruit of your womb," directly contradicting sanctity-of-life claims (Deuteronomy 28:18,53).

• Elisha's prophecy for Hazael said he would attack the Israelites, burn their cities, crush the heads of their babies and rip open their pregnant women (2 Kings 8:12).

• King Menahem of Israel destroyed Tiphsah (also called Tappuah) and the surrounding towns, killing all residents and ripping open pregnant women with the sword (2 Kings 15:16).

• Isaiah prophesied doom for Babylon, including the murder of unborn children: "They will have no pity on the fruit of the womb" (Isaiah 13:18).

• For the crime of idolatry, YHWH declared that not one of his people would live, not a man, woman or child (not even babies in arms), again confuting assertions about the sanctity of life (Jeremiah 44:7-8).

• Elohim will punish the Israelites by destroying their unborn children, who will die at birth, or perish in the womb, or never even be conceived (Hosea 9:10-16).

• For rebelling against Adonai, Samaria's people will be killed, their babies will be dashed to death against the ground, and their pregnant women will be ripped open with a sword (Hosea 13:16).

• For their sins, ALL of the residents of the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah, with the exception of Lot and his daughters, are slaughtered (Genesis 18 & 19)

• ALL humans with the exception of Noah and his family are drowned in a world-covering Flood (Genesis 6:9–9:17).

The Bible forbids abortion.

It shouldn’t matter what the Bible says about abortion. The United States is not a theocracy. Still, given the certitude of abortion opponents that abortion violates God’s Word, it might come as a surprise that neither the Old Testament nor the New mentions abortion—not one word.

It’s not that the Old Testament is reticent about women’s bodies, either. Menstruation gets a lot of attention. So do child- birth, infertility, sexual desire, prostitution (death penalty), infidelity (more death penalty), and rape (if the woman is within earshot of others and doesn’t cry out . . . death penalty). How can it be that the authors (or Author) set down what should happen to a woman who seeks to help her husband in a fight by grabbing the other man’s testicles (her hand should be cut off) but did not feel abortion deserved so much as a word? Given the penalties for nonmarital sex and being a rape victim, it’s hard to believe that women never needed desperately to end a pregnancy, and that there was no folk knowledge of how to do so, as there was in other ancient cultures. Midwives would have known how to induce a miscarriage.
 
Some do. At least an equal number don't.

Nope. Poll in 2019 found that a majority of those polled supported a woman's right to an abortion. BUT, with some restrictions.

A total of 77% say the Supreme Court should uphold Roe, but within that there's a lot of nuance — 26% say they would like to see it remain in place, but with more restrictions added; 21% want to see Roe expanded to establish the right to abortion under any circumstance; 16% want to keep it the way it is; and 14% want to see some of the restrictions allowed under Roe reduced. Just 13% overall say it should be overturned.

Nationally, on the abortion issue women are pretty much 50/50. That's a fact. You can deny it you want, I don't care.
 
I was going to post another comment about abortion but then realised - it's not on topic Kamala Harris - If you are Catholic do not apply which is a political attack on Senator Harris's views, along with being untrue.

In spite of misinterpretations and misapplications of the Bible God still opposes the execution of innocent babies in the womb.
