Former NFL Star Ben Watson Rebukes Raphael Warnock on Claim Abortion Is ‘Justice’
Breitbart ^ | 18 Nov 2020 | DR. SUSAN BERRY

Former Super Bowl champion Ben Watson rebuked Democrat Senate candidate Raphael Warnock over his support for abortion on demand as essential to achieve “reproductive justice,” i.e. equality for black women.

Watson, a pro-life Christian and former NFL tight end who won the Super Bowl with the New England Patriots. addressed Warnock on Twitter:

Pastor, equal access to kill a son or daughter is NOT justice. JUSTICE is the equitable distribution of punishment AND protection. JUSTICE is rooted in the dignity of every human endowed by their Creator. One cannot truly fight for JUSTICE while simultaneously denying it.

Watson, who has addressed the March for Life in Washington, DC, served earlier this year as executive producer of the documentary Divided Hearts of America, which examined the abortion debate in America.

Warnock, who is attempting to unseat Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) in the Georgia Senate runoff election in January, was endorsed by Planned Parenthood in May.

The megachurch pastor does not support any restrictions on abortion, and said in an interview with WGAU’s Tim Bryant in August that such a position fits in with his Christian world view because he has adopted the abortion industry narrative that abortion is health care.

“I believe that healthcare is a human right,” Warnock told Bryant. “And I believe that it is something that the richest nation in the world provides for its citizens, and for me reproductive justice is consistent with my commitment to that.”

Warnock is a false pastor. Margaret Sanger founded “planned” parenthood in an attempt to prevent blacks from reproducing, among her many other goals. This racist clown is an idiot.

Pastor,

Equal access to kill a son or daughter is NOT justice.

JUSTICE is the equitable distribution of punishment AND protection.

JUSTICE is rooted in the dignity of every human endowed by their Creator.

One cannot truly fight for JUSTICE while simultaneously denying it. https://t.co/6Lf8ZziETb— Benjamin Watson (@BenjaminSWatson) November 18, 2020

Ben Watson is a good man with heart after God. Something we lack severely here in a declining Western world.

A “pastor” of a “church” that supports unrestricted access to abortion is a follower of the devil in a Satanic temple.

Even where we disagree, he is thoughtful and well-reasoned. He’s been showing it for a long time.

Is Warnock’s church called The Church of the Murdering Satan? A church that is for abortion is not a church for GOD LOVING Christians, only Satanists.

>> Brave man...

An unfortunate truth.

I have no problem stating that I’m Pro-Life among my circles and randoms. But this issue carries political consequences for influential personalities. And no doubt, an unwelcoming conviction that attracts scorn and estrangement at uncomfortable financial levels.
