Under that criteria, how can the Orthodox be against abortion?

Abortion is the murder of the unborn, that's how. I would have thought you could figure that one out for yourself. I stand corrected.

Well, times have changed. And as we have seen, the Orthodox will change with the times.

Abortion is the murder of the unborn...

Which is frequently accomplished through the use of contraceptives with abortifacient effects. In deeming contraception licit, the Orthodox Churches have ignored this scientific fact -- a dangerous and dishonest position, and I'm sorry to say one that shatters the iconic role of sacramental marriage. Iconoclasm can be mighty subtle sometimes.
