My very smug liberal Sociology professor asked in 1962: "What effect will the birth control pill have on American society?"

Of course, I had no answer—great puzzlement resulted.

All of them are churches with declining memberships.

Meanwhile more conservative denominations like the Presbyterian Church of America are growing at a staggering rate.

From the letter : The legislature’s actions are based on “MORALITY and religion”. Emphasis added. How ironic that pastors are complaining of laws based on morality. I’m gobsmacked at the irony.

Still it shocks me that most if not all of these denominations were very conservative at one time. Now, the difference is between night and day.

Not all Lutheran Churches are Evangelical. That is the liberal version.

There you go. Pro choice = kill babies. Very sad. Rubbers are 50 cents in a bar bathroom (yeah... I’m not perfect and that’s why I know the privie has cheap rubbers). BCP are free for women. But there is no excuse, for killing a baby in the womb. NONE!!!

Call me a sinner. I am a sinner. How can anyone kill a child? No matter what you call a child (lump of cells, unviable tissue etc...) it is a baby. It is a child. It is a human. Look what progressives have achieved. People willingly walk in to the “ovens” of the abortion mills. Black people call each other “nigga” as if it is nothing. Whites bow down for decapitation.

Sad

“Suffer little children to come unto me”. These “women” are not Christian

three lost churches. Preaching against God is not a winning strategy.

Heretic Lutheran denominations. Not faithful ones.

>> A group of female clergy from Iowa wrote a letter

Their sense of worth defined by having the right and means to kill nascent life.

So much for the ‘holy estrogen ‘ protectors of human innocent baby lives from God’s creation. They can’t hide behind a robe or frock and claim to be a servant and minister of Christ when they sanctify murderous deeds more in line with El Diablo.

“As clergy and as women, we oppose any action by the Iowa Legislature to restrict a woman’s ability to make her own health care and reproductive decisions or to access health care services,” they wrote. “Additionally, we support Planned Parenthood of the Heartland and the excellent care it provides for any woman who chooses its health care services.”

All these people and the churches that they represent, know that they are WRONG!

“It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.” ― Mother Teresa

“I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts...” ― Mother Teresa

They also claimed that legislators’ opposition to abortion is purely religious.

It is religious in the sense that most religions admonish against murder. By any scientific measure, the unborn child is as alive and human as any born child.

Do these "pastors" also complain that opposition to other forms of murder is purely religious, and can therefore, by their logic, be dispensed with in a modern society?

I stopped gong to the small Lutheran church here when they hung out the rainbow flag and preached about gay rights.
I must not be the only one because I saw last week they had all the furnishings for sale.

Pretty sad sign of the times when the church sanctions killing babies.
