EPISCOLECHIANS

from Midwest Conservative Journal by The Editor

For anyone who still thinks that abortion won’t some day become an Episcopal sacrament, meet the Rev. Mark Asman, another cleric with God’s 800 number:

"The Santa Barbara Pro-Choice Coalition hosted an event January 25, with refreshments aplenty, to commemorate the 37th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision.

"Within the art-adorned walls of the Faulkner Gallery, located in the Santa Barbara Public Library’s main branch, men and women of various ages gathered to listen to two Santa Barbara religious leaders, Reverend Mark Asman and Rabbi Arthur Gross-Schaefer, discuss abortion, along with Kathy Kneer, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California.

"Declaring himself a “progressive religious activist,” Asman critiqued the health care bill’s anti-abortion amendment. “God is grieved by this amendment,” he said. Asman went on to say that he feared the “tragic consequences of a pre-Roe world.”"

Good thing that didn’t come out of Pat Robertson’s pie hole. Because that would have been embarrassing.
