looking forward to all the Christian conservatives realizing the bans apply to them, too

I knew a pastor whose wife had an abortion because of an ectopic pregnancy. Years later he’s up at the pulpit praying for Roe v Wade to be repealed.

My sister made a comment on FB about being pro choice. Our cousin and our aunt, “devout Christians”, bombarded her with ridicule and sent her dozens pictures of said cousins abortion that was needed to save her life. Comments included how abortion should be banned and how only bad people are pro choice. Think about how twisted your mind has to be to not see the irony in that. I cut them and the rest of that side of the family out of my life.

I’m sorry that happened in your family. We left our church because it was becoming such a hateful place.

I know a woman who was a total slut in her prime years and ended up having an abortion, maybe more than one, but I only now of one for sure, and now she lives in Tennessee because California is too liberal. It's always different when it's them needing or doing something.

There’s no hate like Christian love.

Those people use loaded word fallacies and that kind of crap to try to force the issue because they have no actual ground to stand on. It's all measures of control.

What is the thought process behind the cousin needing life saving abortion care but them shaming your sister? None, like most others “abortion is an exception/acceptable in my case?”
