I am a UCC member and am struggling to understand the church's position on abortion. Here is a link to the article I read from the UCC website: http://www.ucc.org/justice/advocacy...d-justice/reproductive-health-and-justice.pdf
I just really don't get it how this is consistent with the bible, the teachings of Jesus, etc.
My heart goes out to women that have had or are considering an abortion. I would never suppose to have walked in the shoes of any woman who has been through this. I think we need to find ways to talk about abortion that do not condemn or judge women while at the same time advocating for the sanctity of human life.
I am trying to be open and understanding, but I really can't understand the UCC official position on this as a religious group. Any help?
