Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said the battle over abortion and the sexualization of children K–2 in public schools was “a battle of those who believe that they are God and have control over life and death and even their sex and those who believe there is a Creator, who believe in God, believe in Jesus Christ.”

Patrick made his comments during a 15-minute phone interview at Dallas area radio station 660 AM “The Answer” on April 6.
