Yeah, and what have you guys said about the treatment of people at the border? Why is there no condemnation from the denonomination?

Yeah, I agree. That's why I thought using both of them (in the same tweet) might help. Using the dated one exclusive of the generic would be pretty pointless.

Exactly! Sounds like they're suffering vision atrophy. When small groups lose vision, relationships pull them inward, and without the outward pull of a larger mission/vision they become isolated cliques, clubs, and family groups. Value in relationships, but there's more.

A couple of reasons I'm concerned about a post like this. One: the "fight" depicts the same old aggression paradigm. Second: My values are to support women's health and wellbeing, and love adults, children, and all life. I am not "pro-abortion." So I need different words.
