The comment was specifically about how it didn't seem unreasonable for the church to publicly oppose abortion, in response to a billboard on the church's property.
> the church had a massive anti-abortion billboard over their parking lot
It wasn't about the members of the church protesting at a hospital or other facility that performs abortions. Admittedly, that does happen in some places, but it's not what was being discussed.
- gwbas1c 6y agoThe Catholic opposition to abortion is very similar to the Hindu opposition to consuming beef. Talk to some people from India about political/religious issues there. Eating beef, meat, and/or eggs is as offensive to some people in India, for religions reasons, as abortion is in the US. Yet India doesn't have the same mass exodus from its churches as the US does.
