Quote:Christian group's survey finds that Christians have the most abortions in U.S.
Quote:With the terrible events that unfolded over the holiday weekend still reverberating across the country, it is timely that the Christian Research group LifeWay would release the findings of a survey they conducted concerning abortion and the demographics of abortion when it comes to religion. The study was co-sponsored by Care Net, a pregnancy center support organization. Some of their findings:
- 70 percent of the women they surveyed identified as Christians.
- 23 percent of Christian women who have had an abortion consider themselves evangelical Christians.
- Over one third of the women surveyed attend a church once a week or more.
- Over half of the women who attend church regularly have kept their terminated pregnancy secret from their church community.
Typical of the "I've got mine - fuck you" attitude of right-wing xristers.
Like I keep telling CL, awareness or belief that one is killing their own baby doesn't stop them from doing it. She doesn't believe me, or any statistics I have provided. If a Christian finds themselves with an unwanted pregnancy, they are not less likely to abort, DESPITE professed belief that it is a sacred living human baby.
Nor are they less likely even if it is illegal.
Sigh.
