The U.S. branch of the Salvation Army has quickly distanced itself from the Salvation Army Internationals controversial stance on abortion as reported by WND.
The stronger position statement of the Salvation Army U.S.A. reads:
The Salvation Army believes in the sanctity of all human life and considers each person to be of infinite value and each life a gift from God. Therefore, when an unwanted pregnancy occurs, The Salvation Army advises that the situation be accepted and that the pregnancy be carried to term, and offers supportive help and assistance with planning.

(These are the thoughts of a one-time Boy Scout and the father of two Eagle Scouts.)
