I doubt that most are really Christians ......they figure if they can get a few liberal Christians to say that abortion is OK with God that they can counter conservative Christians.Star Member cbayer (104,601 posts) Profile Journal Send DU Mail Ignore

Progressive group starts training pro-abortion rights religious leaders

By Dan Gilgoff, CNN.com Religion Editor
(CNN) – A Washington advocacy group training in-the-trenches religious leaders to speak out on hot-button issues like abortion is nothing new.
But a liberal beltway group training left-leaning clergy to speak out for abortion rights is.
“Religion does support a woman’s personal decision-making about whether she is ready to become a parent,” said Sally Steenland, director of the Faith Initiative at the Center for American Progress, a progressive group that launched its Faith and Reproductive Justice Leadership Institute on Tuesday.
“We felt that the harsh anti-choice rhetoric dominating the public debate stigmatized women making these important decisions and claimed a monopoly on God, morality, and family values,” Steenland said in an e-mail message.

It is kind of interesting when you think about it. Mary is the most famous Wh @ r e of all time and her son is one of the most famous con-men of all time. Scam and lying seems to have run in the family.
