We may soon see this in Russia, where they’re talking about banning the idea of not having children as “extremism”
We might even see something like it in the USA, thanks to the evangelicals and Republicans.
Might?
This Texas teen wanted an abortion. She now has twins.
Broke teen parents having no choice but to join the military? That's a republican wet dream.
On the plus side, they were smart enough to go air force.
With them, I imagine the US will become more like Israel. They're religious extremists.
They're not following the teachings of Jesus though. What they are is some nationalistic spin-off that doesn't have much in common with actual Christianity.
