Chelsea Clinton says she left a pro-life Baptist church when she was six years old because they taught her about abortion. The 35-year-old reportedly said she was tired of critics questioning her family's religion during a recent fundraiser for Hillary Clinton.
"I find it quite insulting sometimes when people say to my mom, my dad or me that they question our faith," Clinton said. "I was raised in a Methodist church and I left the Baptist church before my dad did because I didn't know why they were talking to me about abortion when I was 6 in Sunday School. That's a true story." "I recognized that there were many expressions of faith that I don't agree with and feel [are] quite antithetical to how I read the Bible," Clinton continued, "but I find it really challenging when people who are self-professed liberals kind of look askance at my family's history..."

If I had gotten up at age 6 and announced “I am leaving this church”, some nun would have smacked me back in line with a ruler before my parents would even have had a shot at me.
Yea right, her parents let her decide the church at age 6. What a load of BS liars these Clintons are!
Ten bucks says that this pig runs for President someday.
The next thing we know, we are going to hear her tell the story about how when she was born her parents named her after Chelsea Manning.
The Cintons are terrible liars, but the dopes who want to believe them, believe them.
What Baptist church, or any church for that matter, teaches abortion to six year olds? Also, how can a six year old “leave” a church?
Like mother like daughter, I see.
Looking more like Web every day.
Yep, not buying it for a second. These people insult our intelligence, with their stupidity.
A good journalist would have asked a follow-up question of why and how a 6 year old would know what an abortion was.
She likley tithed at age 6 as well.
Bullcrap. What church? Who was the teacher? What other little kids were in the class?
She made this up.
The Bible describes in many places how child sacrifice was practiced by many nations (including Israel) prior to those nation’s destruction. Abortion is today’s child sacrifice. Teachers read the Bible to their students and explain what Abortion (child sacrifice) is...
It is possible that she is lying, however the Bible describes in many places how child sacrifice was practiced by many nations (including Israel) prior to those nationâs destruction. Abortion is todayâs child sacrifice. Teachers read the Bible to their students and explain what Abortion (child sacrifice) is...
How many 6 year olds take initiative on their church affiliation, and for reasons of principle?
Ba lo ney.
Maybe that actually is Chelsea Manning.
“So at 6 years old she just ups and changes churches on her own. She definitely inherited hers mothers penchant for lying”.
Yeah. That’s what I thought, too.
Probably tried to join the Marines on the way home, too.
I left the Baptist church before my dad did because I didn’t know why they were talking to me about abortion when I was 6 in Sunday School. That’s a true story
It was probably “Sanctity of Human Life Sunday” and it was in their lesson books written appropriately for a 6 year old.
Speaking as a Baptist, good riddance. One less person trying to change us like they did the Methodist Church.
Which by the way is a good example of what happens when there is an all powerful central authority (feds) like the Methodists compare to a decentralized structure (states) like Baptist.
