Personally, I think that this is a great question that should be asked. But why ask this to just a candidate? Why not ask ourselves the same thing? I have found over the years that in the Christian faith, too many times, the abortion topic is surfaced over and not dug into. I have met many Christians who support “Pro-Choice”. In this matter I say let us change the word. If you were to look up what the root of the word Abortion is; in latin, aborior, simply means “To appear Away”, or in a verb form “Fail”. But if you were to look up and read the defining procedures used to “Fail” a pregnancy, or what a woman “chooses” to “Appear Away” from, it is simply murder. So in all practicality one should re-phrase and ask themselves or their candidate “Why is it ok to support murder of the innocent?”. And simply, the answer is, “It is NEVER ok.”

"Therefore the Christ who is grasped by faith and who lives in the heart is the true Christian righteousness, on account of which God counts us righteous and grants us eternal life."
