We used to talk of the Republican "FoxNews Primary", where Republicans candidates competed to get FoxNews all important endorsement. Now can we talk about the Republican "Moscow Primary."
This is a show not shown in the USA. There might be one or two Americans on vacation in London who saw it, but this is not the show you would announce on if you want to reach American votes. But it is a show known to be watched by Kremlin English watchers.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan said it best, "You are entitled to your opinion. But you are not entitled to your own facts."
Paul Begala, "Politics is show business for ugly people."
Stephen Colbert, "Reality has a well known liberal bias."

Or you could try talking to an actual practicing Jew. Jewish law holds that the fetus is not "alive" until birth. Therefore abortion is not immoral or illegal.
Source: Judaism and AbortionDoes Jewish law state that life begins at conception? No, life does not begin at conception under Jewish law. Sources in the Talmud note that the fetus is “mere water” before 40 days of gestation. Following this period, the fetus is considered a physical part of the pregnant individual’s body, not yet having life of its own or independent rights. The fetus is not viewed as separate from the parent’s body until birth begins and the first breath of oxygen into the lungs allows the soul to enter the body.
Does Jewish law assert that it is possible to murder a fetus? No, Jewish law does not consider a fetus to be alive. The Torah, Exodus 21:22-23, recounts a story of two men who are fighting and injure a pregnant woman, resulting in her subsequent miscarriage. The verse explains that if the only harm done is the miscarriage, then the perpetrator must pay a fine. However, if the pregnant person is gravely injured, the penalty shall be a life for a life as in
other homicides. The common rabbinical interpretation of this verse is that the men did not commit murder and that the fetus is not a person. The primary concern is the well-being of the person who was injured.

Wait, what?
Herp, derp, derp, you do not even realize that charges, against the powerful more often than not take years to file?
You think them not yet being filed means anything? Did you somehow miss Trump org just getting convicted of Fraud and its CFO going to jail and how many years that took?
How are people on this forum arguing here if they do not even know these most basic things?

Matthew 19 is about divorce, and the conditions under which divorce can happen, not about gays.
No church is required under any law to recognize gay marriage. Gay marriage is only strictly legal under civil law.
I accept your tacit confession that Jesus never mentioned abortion, never mentioned gays, but according to Jesus everytime you watch porn you are sinning against God.
Jesus styled himself a re-interpreter of the Jewish law. The entire Sermon on the Mount is his reinterpretation of Jewish law from the beatitudes, to adultery and divorce, to universal love, almsgiving, the golden rule, materialism, prayer, proscriptions against anger, cursing, and retribution.
There's nothing about abortion or gays in the Sermon on the Mount, even though it is Jesus' most definitive and comprehensive interpretation of the Jewish law.
