N.T. Wright is a popular and highly respected Christian theologian.

But the man's take on abortion is a complete and total moral disaster. 👇

There are many, many cases where it is about the mother's health versus the health of the child or whatever ... in cases of rape or in cases of incest there may be a very, very strong argument for saying this ought never to have happened and with sorrow, because we do not want to do this in principle ... the best thing to do would as soon as possible to terminate this pregnancy.

"Terminate a pregnancy" is left-wing euphemistic language that hides the brutal reality that you are killing a baby.

A human baby made in God's image.

N.T. Wrong goes on to talk about how late term abortion is wrong and pagan. However, in his mind, killing the baby earlier is tragic but sometimes necessary.

In principle this is not something we should welcome. This is not something we should collude with. At the same time there may be certain exceptions of which severe deformity might be one, of which certainly incest and rape would be others, and in those cases I would say the sooner the better. Because at a certain point, and I am not medically qualified to say at what point I would draw a line, then this is a viable human being that should then be cherished.

At what point do you draw the line between "clump of cells" and "fearfully and wonderfully made"?

Is leading Christian thinker N.T. Wright saying "deformed" human beings need not be cherished!? Or if they are the product of a sinful and unnatural sexual relationship, then we need to kill them as soon as possible??

Can he show me some biblical support for that, because I have a few that show what God thinks about the value of preborn babies and human life, with no exception:

BUT IT SOMEHOW GOT WORSE:

When women ... then discovering that unmarried men from the Catholic hierarchy are telling her what she can and cannot do. As people say now, the optics of that are pretty bad. That's part of the same system of male bullying which we have to avoid like the plague.

"Men can't comment on baby murder because they aren't women." 🥴

The poison of liberalism is a toxic rot that must be rejected by the church of Jesus Christ.

Let N.T. Wright be your warning.

I've gotta get to the reactions to this.

Horrible.
