Abortion rights activists were unhappy with the president’s comments, as millions of people are being denied access to abortion care in nearly half the country.

    It a bit surprising given that he mentioned being catholic, too - the catholic church has generally taken a pretty firm stance on abortion.

    That said, I grew up in the UCC, and it resonates perfectly with the way that they emphasized tolerance. If somebody wants to do something that you don’t like, that’s absolutely fine as long as they don’t force you to participate - in this case, the tolerant, “christian” take on abortion should be “I don’t want one, but if you do, go for it.”

        United Church of Christ. From what he said it sounds like the UCC would let me be, or let me be me so let me see they tried to shut me down on MTV but it feels so empty without me
