Yeah, I was wondering, though I assumed he wasn’t a Catholic priest.

Unfortunately, as I said above, people are flawed and screw up and often don’t do what they should.

That includes those who SHOULD use birth control, but just can't seem to bother, because they
1. Are teenagers, and think they're 10' tall and bulletproof
2. Know they have a backup (abortion), or
3. Don't care because if they have another baby, they'll get more money from the govt.

>> As a clergyman for most of my adult life,...
>> Planned Parenthood supports keeping abortion legal because it protects women’s health and lives.

So until the female becomes a woman, its life is not worth protecting?

The division between my Faith and the clergy folk who claim the right to its representation grows deeper every day. But who cares what this clergy guy thinks - abortion is first and foremost a humanitarian concern. You don’t need ‘religion’ to figure that out.

EXCUSE ME? This is a priest backing PP? Did I read that right?? No freaking way! IF all PP did was those types of screening no one would bother them or care.

your seeming logic excuses their behavior...our society is full of the 'pass the buck' or 'pass the blame game'. No excuse. Sin is sin. There isn't a "pick the lesser of 2 evils" here.

you want to excuse the contraceptives, but...abortefaceints are murder as well. They kill after conception. and the contraceptives are just another way to get away with inappropriate, sinful behavior. Outside of marriage it is wrong. Point blank. No questions. People want to continue living their sinful livestyle without having to face it, so...birth control and abortion... sacrifice innocence and the innocent on the alter of convenience and self-centeredness.

And he represents his father, not The Heavenly Father. Up is down and wrong is right, and Episcopalians are betray in a rush, with no fight. I left them in their demonic spittle.

For Christian conservatives the bottom line should NOT come down to finances but BIBLICAL MORALITY. Are you going to give YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT to an organization THAT MURDERS MILLIONS OF INNOCENT BABIES? If you do that you are HELPING to fund them so they can MURDER MORE INNOCENT BABIES!

No matter WHAT other “services” they provide that should NOT matter to someone who makes the important decisions of their lives on MORALITY and not expediency or finances.

So this means we should give up, roll over, and play dead. Parental / family abstinance education costs virtually nothing. Informing children/students over and over will have an effect. it will take time, but it is the only proven birth control.
