I apologize. I didn't intend for it to go this way.

I find it odd that you call it "disturbing". He studied "Divinity and Theology" and the first sentence says that someone asked him to "outline the Church's response to abortions", which he then did, mostly by quoting articles published by the church.

(We probably both disagree with him on the topic and the arguments, but that's secondary to my question.) Which part of him stating his opinion is "disturbing" to you?

Fair enough, I may not have picked the best example while skimming it quickly (he seems to have thousands of posts on his blog). I didn't like him using the word "pro-abortion" though (and not pro-choice) which to me seems to be used to villainize the other side.

I had no idea about his staunch anti choice stance. Pretty gnarly stance to say abortion is unacceptable in all cases (including incest, rape, etc). This is good to know and changes my perspective on him. Thank you for sharing.

I think you meant to write anti choice not pro choice.

Thank you, I edited it to pro-life

Good for him.
