Nope. You're are really close, but you have pinned the tail on the wrong donkey.
First, abortion: Even Russia is rethinking their abortion laws, because they, (like the u.s) are in a baby bust. Second homosexuality, I've got nothing really on that, but just that they will never accept the act, but will profess to love the actor. imo, allowing same sex to marry, will put more money into lawyers pockets, as with marriage comes divorce. I'm sure there are 'legal' benefits to the marriage, that I know nothing about, thus the push for a 'legal' pursuit, but morally, same sex marriage will never been seen as something that is ordained by God ... Which brings me to Trump and his ~ cough ~ divine self ...
The biblical story the Christian right uses to defend Trump
"Many evangelical speakers and media outlets
compare Trump to Cyrus, a historical Persian king who, in the sixth century BCE, conquered Babylon and ended the Babylonian captivity, a period during which Israelites had been forcibly resettled in exile. This allowed Jews to return to the area now known as Israel and build a temple in Jerusalem. Cyrus is referenced most prominently in the Old Testament book of Isaiah, in which he appears as a figure of deliverance."
I had to look that up when Trump took office, because I was like how in the world, can they drink the koolaid ... shoot, they've got an explanation for everything. Right is Wrong, and Wrong is Right --- But if we think they'd like to bring about an apocalypse, judgement day? Nope and Christians believe Christ is going to show up, right on time; in His time.
However, Islam, would very much like to have their 12th Imam up on the scene ...
Final, when the 12th Imam was first mentioned 14 years ago, no one knew what that was ... I caught the speech of the first made mention of this 12th Imam ... back then there was very little on this, but what was said was true. Today Internet being what it is, there is a lot of miss information in circulation. Everything they do though, they do, believing it will bring their 12th Imam out of hiding ... (out of my bookmark archives; the only one not a 404)
Ahmadinejad Awaits the Hidden Imam
"At the end of his speech at the United Nations in the fall of 2005, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made an invocation to Allah to bring about the speedy reappearance of the Hidden Imam.
<snip>
The immediate question: who is this Hidden Imam to whom he referred?"
PS: Trump's ego is why he does what he does. Obama took out Laden ... Trump had to trump, Obama --- Season 3 reality t.v., I've been following along ...
