“Ok, understand you have no answer why all those Baptists seem to ignore what a piece of paper says and vote their conscience for pro life candidates to end abortion.”

You’re assuming that happens. I don’t. Remember, no one is pro-life if he supports selective abortions as the SBC does. Thus, I think you have to search far and wide to find more than a handful of Protestant who actually do want to ban abortions under ALL CIRCUMSTANCES.

“How can you cast stones with these measurable facts presented?”

I didn’t cast a single stone. My Church denounces abortion - even for incest, rape and health of the mother. The SBC does not. The SBC supports abortion then.

“There is a word for groups of people passing judgment on others where their own hands are not clean. Hypocrites.”

The hypocrisy belongs to those who either those Catholics who support abortion or those Protestants who lie and say they’re pro-life when they actually support selective abortion. Selective baby-killing is still baby-killing - and Baptist sects like the SBC support it.

I have met many Catholics and many other denominations of Christians and yet to know of any who support selective abortions. I know that is subjective proof but I am in the Army and have conversed with many chaplains and fellow soldiers from several denominations and have yet to meet a Christian who supports selective abortions. I certainly do not in any case.

I don’t know your interaction with Pro Life evangelicals however you should look at an organization called the Manhattan Declaration (I am a member and supporter) which was formed by Evangelicals and Roman Catholics. The organization was the idea of the late Chuck Colson of prison ministries.

The group supports pro life issues and traditional marriage:

Perhaps on such a site as FR we could mirror such an effort instead of posting about groups clearly in opposition to what we believe.
