The above story tells a gruesome truth: A typical, upper-middle class Protestant church seems to have been too ambivalent to expel a man and/or the woman who helped him kill unborn babies. What would happen in a Catholic Church? A Catholic priest would, on finding out what a member of his parish was doing, not have allowed them to receive Communion. They would have been automatically excommunicated. Not so with the Protestants. Too many of their clergy simply will not let them care enough. The problem is compounded by an unpleasant reality: many of their clergypersons are using abortion-inducing chemicals and devices and no one seems to talk about it.

This case illustrates the Catholic Fundamentalism position. An important question must be asked: “As long as Pro-Life people are scattered among the various schisms, abortion will continue. How can the blood of innocents not be on schismatic hands?”
