The Rev. Rafael Cruz, father of Republican presidential contender Ted Cruz, is not shy about stating where he stands on abortion.
Rev. Cruz issued a strong call to a group evangelical Christians recently, saying that Americans should stop using euphemistic terms like “pro-choice” and say “pro-murder” instead, CNS News reports.
“We have to stop being politically correct,” Rev. Cruz said. “We have to stop acquiescing even to the wording that the liberals use.”

“So we’re supposed to prostitute our principles on behalf of tolerance. Well, I’ll tell you what, there are absolutes. There are absolutes. Start being biblically correct instead of politically correct.”
