Will members of any Christian congregation be there to support her after the event? I doubt it.
Having stood with others outside St Patrick’s cathedral, Melbourne some decades ago with a group of ‘pro-abortion’ protesters asking those departing mass if they approved of abortion. Armed with legal adoption/guardianship forms we asked the 100% who responded in the negative if they’d be willing to support an ‘unwanted’ child. 100% refused.
My personal view is coloured by the obscene sado-masochist theology of most Christian denominations who believe all of us should suffer as Jesus did on the cross to redeem our sins. Somehow they miss a central portion of that theology, that Christ supposedly suffered for all our sins - but that’s another obscene, contradiction riddled theological mess unworthy of deeper investigation here.
