The vast majority of churches/denominations in general do not do enough to stop abortion.
It’s what I’ve been harping about and what I’ll keep harping about until I’m heard.
Did you not read my one thread?....

I mean READ IT....halfway down. When Abby is talking about women in her abortion clinic. What kind of women, what they were doing.. Asking clinic workers to pray with them, they were reading/holding Bibles in the waiting room. What does that sound like to you? Sounds like to me our churches/denominations somehow lack something in the teaching of pro life values.
Morgana, churches generally do not address abortion other than "saying the right things" in statements that are kept on dusty shelves.
Pro-life worldviews are rarely addressed...except in obligatory references made in sermons the third week of each January. Having checked off the checklist, they move on to "other subjects."
As for who is getting abortions, I meant to post something similar to the following on that thread you referenced, but didn't get around to it.
The church community has known for quite a while WHO is getting these abortions.
Back in the 1980s George Grant wrote a book on Planned Parenthood called GRAND ILLUSIONS: The Legacy of Planned Parenthood...
He references how pro-lifers found thousands of abortion documents in a Houston, TX abortuary dumpster.
A sampling of these "medical" records revealed abortion clients...and the THEN med records would ask for info like "name of church" and "pastor" or priest...A very high % of them named BOTH a specific church and a specific church leader.
Then pro-life activist Gregg Cunningham, a former Pennsylvania state legislator, discovered the same kind of info in his research.
