I'm sure American evangelicals will make similar statements.

"If the life of natural things, millions of years old, does not seem sacred to us, then what can be sacred? Human vanity alone? Contempt for the natural world implies contempt for life. The domination of nature leads to the domination of human nature. Anything becomes permissible." Edward Abbey

I'm a single issue voter. If you don't support universal healthcare, I really don't care about anything else you have to say. And the reason is I'm losing my ass paying for healthcare. More than $2000 per month, and that is criminal. #healthcare

Fed up with U.S. health care costs, these Americans moved abroad
Three Americans explain why they left for Italy, South Korea and France, after crippling medical debt or a lack of coverage left them afraid to seek medical help at home.

The church should back climate candidates to fully endorse a culture of life
Elected officials who deny climate change must be called out by the church, and political candidates who support climate action should be endorsed in line with Catholic teaching.

Instead of taking a moral stand against a tyrant, Paramount caved so their already fabulously wealth board could push through a deal and make even more money. They have no honor. Moral failure. Disgraceful.

It's been surreal seeing so many Americans commenting about pulling for Canada in last night's hockey showdown with the U.S. It reflects how much people loathe Trump's attempt at bullying a trusted ally. I pulled for Canada, as well, and didn't think twice about it. 🇨🇦 #canada #hockey
