I recently published an article about the United Church of Christ supporting abortion, and now I feel its time to call attention to the fact that, unknown to myself when I was a member, the Episcopal Church has officially supported abortion since before Roe vs. Wade, even though many Episcopalians are pro-life. This should surprise no one, and frankly that I didn’t realize it shows how naive I was, considering the abuse of traditionalists within the denomination, the recent display of a crucifix depicting our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ as a woman, and the church failing to discipline liberal parishes like St. Gregory of Nyssa for incorporating a Shinto shrine into their funeral service.
It is also interesting to note this occurred around the same time that the heresy trial against Bishop James Pike of San Francisco, who among other things argued against teaching the doctrine of the Trinity, saying “we need fewer beliefs and more belief,” to which the Episcopal Church should have responded “The Unitarian Universalist Association Welcomes You,” failed to convict and depose the bishop despite his flagrant disregard of the doctrines set forth in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer.
I suggest conservative Episcopalians use caution and avoid donating money directly to the Episcopal Church, where it could be used to finance pro-abortion lobbying and activism. Frankly I wish I could get my money back that I donated.
In this thread on some other pro abortion denominations I outlined possible alternative means of donating to the denominations in question: The United Church of Christ Supports Abortion!
