Late last week, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) — a candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination — condemned pro-life efforts to protect unborn babies as "against Christian faith." Specifically, she slammed Georgia's law protecting unborn babies from the moment a heartbeat may be detected in the womb. Rather than addressing serious science and faith concerns about the humanity of the unborn and the Christian tradition of defending life, Gillibrand defended abortion by referencing free will.
"If you are a person of the Christian faith, one of the tenants of our faith is free will. One of the tenants of our democracy is that we have a separation of church and state, and under no circumstances are we supposed to be imposing our faith on other people. And I think this is an example of that effort," the 2020 candidate said.

I guess Gillibrand is jealous Alfred E. Neuman is the only Christian heretic in the field.
Yeah, because infanticide is a core Christian value, eh?
That has got to be the single stupidest statement I’ve read in a long time.
And did she really say “tenants”?
Christianity differentiated itself form the Pagan Classical culture by emphasizing the sanctity of the fetus and infant.
I love it when materialists try to use Scripture.
Massive Fail.
They really do live in an upside down world.
“...one of the tenants of our faith is free will.”
Yes, I always depend on crazed communist women for insights into the Christian faith, just like I count on CNN and the NY Times for advice on Republican electoral strategy.
God created man with free will - we can use our free will to help others and improve the world, or we can have sex like animals and kill our own offspring before they are born. We are able to choose. I would hardly call that a “tenant”.
KG is nuts. And a bust body
Gilibrand is correct that the Bible never once mentions the word “heartbeat,” but since doctors routinely check heartbeat and since much medical Science revolves around heart beat data, one can *also* say that Georgia’s heartbeat law is Scientific instead of religious.
Murdering babies is all good to the commie left..its their holy grail they will never give it up. Baby slaughter makes them feel all warm and fuzzy inside, like the Holocaust, according to Tlaib
isn’t that just precious- a Moloch worshiping cultist lecturing Christians about what is Christian and what isn’t!
By this logic, all laws are unChristian.
And that tells you where Gillibrand resides.
What would a communist/socialist skank know about real “Christian Values”? Using her analogy would allow me to use my “free will” to annihilate RATs by the thousands.
It’s definitely a mental disease, freepers. They’re insane.
And did she really say “tenants”?
Yes, I saw that. too.
If so, either the “journalist” or the candidate is a moron.
Sadly, either could be the case.
Gillibrand is a Jewess. What does she know about Christian theology?
Those Democrats, they say the darndest things
Actually she is “Catholic”.
“Tenants” about the only thing that gave me a chuckle. Yes Christians have free will, but God is ever hopeful we use it for good, not evil.
