Alawode-El asked for abortion pills to end her pregnancy. The CPC didn’t provide abortions, but of course they didn’t tell her that. “They said, ‘We’re out of stock right now, but call us next week.’” She did, and was told they were still out-of-stock and to call again next week. A week passed; she called again. They were still “out of stock.” Three weeks passed—three weeks Alawode-El was forced to remain pregnant when she didn’t want to be, three weeks waiting for something that wasn’t coming. “There was no Google back then,” she told Jezebel. “There was no way for me to get information on what was really going on, where I could really get help.”
That’s the goal of crisis pregnancy centers: To prevent or delay abortion by any means, including with bald-faced lies.
Bearing false witness? How christian of them.
It’s okay to lie when you lie for Jesus.
Crisis pregnancy centers need to be shut down. They’re straight up evil.
I hope I get the opportunity to spend a week in front of one to warn others at some point. I’d really enjoy that experience.
