Religious backers of abortion rights say God's on their side

“We need to have a real conversation about what we describe as Christianity,” said Kendra Cotton, a member of the Black Southern Women’s Collective, a network of Black women organizers, many of them from faith-based groups.

The white evangelical worldview that abortion is murder has consumed the conversation, flattening the understanding of how religion and views on abortion truly intersect, she said.

1John 4:20 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

What can be more hateful than killing a baby?

[RatRipper]

There is a time when they would have been called heretics and false prophets.

[RedMonqey]

Moloch approves of his message.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Had to check if it was the Babylon Bee. Alas, it was not.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Pretty sure God is against baby killing.

[Tell It Right]

Evidently these "faith-based groups" have faith in Moloch, even if the name he's called has changed over the past few thousand years like: Baal, Athena, Venus, right to choose, women's freedom.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

... Wont they be surprised.

[alternatives?]

Why does she think there are not any worthwhile black people who oppose abortion? She thinks the opposition is just from white people. She needs to reassess whether her religion is really a form of race worship as opposed to Christianity.

For you hands are defiled with innocent blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. - Isaiah 59:3

[eyeamok]

After what has happened at the hands of black people the last few years, maybe we should ALLOW black women unfettered Abortion Rights in the hopes that they Self Extinct from the Country.

What would Jesus do if a desperate pregnant woman begged Him for help?

Do these Christian abortion workers imagine He would say, “The child is dead, the pregnancy is over, you will pass it safely?” Or just vanish this human spark of creation?

I can imagine that, I just did, but I can’t believe it.

damn these people are sick in the head.

[Quality_Not_Quantity]

I threw up in my mouth not a little bit on the reading of the article. God will similarly spit them out of His mouth.

[lurk]

Their god is pleased with human sacrifice.

[chronicles]

How can anyone look at the mangled flesh of an aborted child and say that God approves? It is blasphemy.

[Harpotoo]

LOL:-)

[EastTexasTraveler]

“many of them from faith-based groups”

faith in what? They are not Christians.

"The white evangelical worldview that abortion is murder has consumed the conversation"

Hold up! Did she just say that only white people think killing innocent babies is murder? That's not remotely accurate. Sounds like trying to squint and find racism in everything again.

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

There are documents from the early Church that prohibit abortion, and that has been the position of all Christian traditions until fairly recently. Who would have guessed that we have been on the wrong side of God on this issue for 1900+ years? It’s a good thing we have folks from “faith-based organizations,” and their novel interpretations of Scripture, to straighten us out.

[Sparticus]

Yet more wickedness from another emissary of Satan. A wolf in sheep’s clothing.
