Message: Entry: Was MLK Really Pro-Life? Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/was_mlk_really_pro_life#25350 Post contents: The sentence I said which you all are having a hissy fit over, was "abortion which remained legal in most of Christendom until the 19th century. When did I ever say the early church supported abortion? All I said was that at least some form of abortion was legal in Europe after it converted to Christianity--a a definition that Merriam Webster accepts. Given that infanticide was outlawed, and abortion wasn't. When King praised the Church for ending infanticide, he was clearly not discussing abortion. "Chapter and verse" is completely irrelevant, because I never said that the Church or the bible ever sanctioned abortion." Sent at: 2008 09 07
