Protestants and Abortion

[Valin]

The American Spectator:

Southern Baptists have changed their mind about Roe. When will United Methodists join them?

Mark Tooley

1.31.13

 

Last week about 100,000 or more marched in the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. This year they commemorated 40 years since the 1973 Supreme Court decision constitutionalizing abortion on demand.

 

Supporting the march and the pro-life cause were leaders of America’s two largest religious communions, the 68 million-member Roman Catholic Church and the 16 million-member Southern Baptist Convention. Meanwhile, agencies for the third largest, the United Methodist Church, crafted a news release virtually celebrating Roe v. Wade. But 40 years ago, both Southern Baptists and United Methodists, at least officially, backed abortion rights.

One of the things that brought us evil heretical Protestants around was

 

A book series of lectures and a movie by Francis A. Schaeffer & C. Everett Koop

Whatever Happened to the Human Race?

C. Everett Koop, Francis A. Schaeffer

 

I recall when this came to the Twin Cities they packed out the convention center.
