Senator Obama's pastor Reverend Wright spoke out against pro-life advocates....?

He says they rob women of their 'right to choose.' It seems disturbing that a church proclaiming Christ as its Savior would believe that abortion on demand is acceptable in the eyes of God.

Are there other Christian churches out there that are pro-choice or are at least completely silent on the issue?

    I agree with you. Abortion is murder, no matter what.

    The Rev. has a redeeming quality I see.

    Backing a woman's right to a choice is not speaking "out against pro-life advocates."

    I cannot believe that there are too many churches that will condone abortion. The facts are that the majority of abortions are performed on Christian women. So, you pro-lifers are in the minority. Thank God.

    Hillary doesn't need to attack Wright. Just sit back and watch this angry black man make a mockery of himself. He speaks for a minority of blacks, who would worship him anyway. The rest of America look at him as either a crackpot or a white-hating racist. So Hillary is smart to say nothing and just let it play out. What goes around comes around; don't be surprised if some white supremacy group caps this lunatic.

    I don't know. All I can say is that Pro-Lifers that murder people to prevent abortions are just wack jobs. 2 wrongs don't make a right.

    I am pro-life but not a fanatical killing maniac. I have a firm belief in everyones own accountability. I advocate educating women of all options and also methods of prevention.

    Both Senator Obama and Reverend Wright are lost and on the way to hell. They are not Christian and do not speak for Christians, even though they take the name of Christ in vain.

    My advice to them is the same that Jesus gave: Repent and be born again. Repentance is turning away from sin.

    Prohibiting abortion does rob a woman of her right to choose.

    That is very close to a valueless statement. It does not come down on either side of the abortion fence. It just says that when you say a woman can't have an abortion, she can't decide to have an abortion. It is completely accurate. It does not advocate abortion. I don't see the problem.

    Your god of the bible says that we are given free will.

    If our government becomes like Orwell's book (warning about a total dictatorship) in which Big Brother tells us when to sh*t and when to wipe, then is that free will?

    Why not ask the government to put tax dollars toward funding for better sex education and financing classes on what it takes to raise a baby and survive in this world so that pubescent kids become educated and therefore, consciously aware! What a concept.

    Because, I sure don't see religion helping any of these god fearing unwed teenage mommies while our tax dollars go to paying their well fare. Do you?

    Different Christian churches have different views on abortion.

    However, I don't believe that ANY church would be for partial birth abortion, and Obama is.

    The man is more an mouthpiece for the devil than for God, spouting the same old "victim mentality" message as Karl Marx.

    I think the "Rev." needs to go back and read Romans 1:18-32!
