I don’t think I ever stated that Pro-Abortion politicians speak for me. I reject abortion as a grav moral injustice and sin. I was just responding to Gamecock’s statement.

However, while the Westminster Confessions did speak for the Reformed Confessions, and still do (with some modifications as I have learned from Gamecock), in no instance to politicians of any stripe (Dem, Independent, Rep, etc) speak for the Church. That job is the Bishop of Rome and the Bishops in communion with him (e.g., Magisterium).

Regards

I don’t know the reason for your seeming rebuke to me.

I was concurring with what you wrote in paragraphs 3 and 4 of your post #23.

“That job is the Bishop of Rome and the Bishops in communion with him”. I agree totally with this.

I have spent the years since Roe V . Wade working in Catholic Pro-life groups and initiatives.
