once again you are focused on a single issue rather than the whole picture. while muslims and christians agree on abortion, there are many other things they disagree on. and there in lies the problem. import a bunch of muslims to overturn roe v wade, and now you have a much bigger problem to deal with. how many of these muslims are going to band together to try and force sharia law on the country?
and once again i agree that we need to eliminate abortion, or reduce it to a bare minimum, but importing a bunch of people that hate this country is not the way to do it.
You have a bigger problem than roe v wade even though 2800 americans are supposedly murdered every 24 hours because of it????
Again, only about 30 muslims have attacked America since 1776. In the past 24 hours 2800 americans have, by republican logic, been killed by their christian parents.
you could say the same thing about The left and Islam and women's rights.
Left wing Lib's tolerance of Islam proves that don't really care about Women's rights....
The moral stakes are vastly different though. According to the republican party, over 50 million Americans have been murdered since 1973 due to abortion. Women's rights and gay rights has no comparable death toll.

Thank goodness for that too. Think about how many more parasites we would have if those trashy women hadn't aborted their future criminals and welfare scroungers.
Oh, I fully expect that in the not-far-distant future, social conservatives - christians, muslims, jews, hindus etc - will form at least an uneasy alliance on an anti-abortion, anti-homosexuality platform.
People who are religiously motivated on these issues won't be giving up, and many of them believe that it's society's/government's job to prohibit abortion and homosexuality. Since a majority of americans disagree with them about this, if they want to make any headway, they'll have to reach out to each other.
Edited to add - didn't vote because it's immaterial to me what Rs do on this...
The republicans have alienated all nonwhite demographics though
Muslims, blacks and latinos are the most anti abortion groups out there and the GOP has alienated them all
The GOP appears to have no strategy to actually overturn Roe v Wade which leads me to believe that republicans do not actually believe abortion is murder. the issue has fallen into irrelevance for them
One also wonders if republicans have realized that most abortions are done by low income democrats and as such feel mess motivated to prevent abortions

The OP seems to be really confused about the impact of a Supreme Court decision like Roe v. Wade. Even if millions of pro-lifers were imported, converted from pro-choice, etc. it would not matter and abortion would still be legal due to the Supreme Court's decision. A SCOTUS decision can't be overturned by popular vote or legislative action. Only nine people (eight right now) on the entire planet have the power to overturn Roe v. Wade, and those same nine people are bound by the court's previous decisions. The only possible way around the court is with a constitutional amendment that bans abortion and that is less likely to happen than a unicorn buying a winning lottery ticket while being struck by lightning.
Pro-lifers that believe that Roe v. Wade will be overturned and abortion will be made illegal are suckers and their own movement is playing them for fools.
If that is the case then the prolife republicans truly have no chance of stopping abortion without the importation of tens of millions of muslims, africans and or latinos
Only then will that constitutional amendment have the sufficient democratic power behind it to be passed
Therein lies the dilemma pro life republicans face.
Under america's current demographics, they have no chance of defeating abortion's legality.
The only way to defeat it would be to mass import the people they have opposed for decades: muslims, latinos and maybe africans too. But to do so would likely lead to the victory of socialists like bernie sanders.

Regarding abortion, I think there are two types of Rs -
1) religiously-motivated anti-abortion folks who care about taking a public stance, regardless of whether the argument is politically winnable
2) politically-motivated anti-abortion folks, who, while they oppose abortion, are also concerned that trying to ban or further regulate it will damage their political possibilities on other issues
I think the religiously-motivated folks truly don't care whether "...most abortions are done by low income democrats" (a dubious proposition, BTW, but I'll let it pass for the sake of discussion).
Right-wing Christianity's intolerance of Islam proves that right-wing Christians don't actually believe abortion is murder.
No it proves you have no idea what you're talking about and make ignorant leaps of liberal logic.
