‘All lives matter’

On September 30, 2020
Kevin Wondrash

In the upcoming November 3 election there is only one thing that really matters and that is the “Right to Life” of all people.

Sure, I agree that “black lives matter,” but “all lives matter”.

If I may quote Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, “however, the right to life position is, in one sense, not about an ‘issue’ at all. Nor are those who hold it ‘single issue voters.'”

It is the pre-eminent moral mandate.

The pro-life position is also a worldview, a lens through which we should view every political, cultural, social, and economic issue.

It should inform every aspect of our participation in society, especially the exercise of our citizenship”

As citizens of the United States we must vote pro-life. We must protect all human life from the moment of conception to natural death. Nothing else matters.
