Paglia cited in particular the pro-abortion Anglican chosen by the Archbishop of Canterbury as his representative at the Academy (Nigel Biggar). “Someone has attacked the Academy for having welcomed [him],” said Paglia. “I’ve already clarified elsewhere about the problem of his affirmation of abortion in a debate against a professor who was a firm proponent of abortion. It’s a sentiment we don’t share. But this scientist, who wishes to defend life anyway, is among those who effectively argue against euthanasia in a manner totally consistent with the Catholic Church.”
How can one be pro-abortion while being "totally"consistent with the the Catholic Church"? Especially if one is on the Pontifical Acadamey for Life?
Biggar, as a keynote speaker at a Mayo Clinic event stated, "It is not true that all abortion is equivalent to murder."
