I know pro-choice members of the Catholic clergy (mostly nuns, actually, but a few priests), but they shall remain nameless at this time for obvious ex-communication/defrocking-related reasons.
Yeah, I know a few of them, too. That's just the problem - they can't speak up without being ex-communicated or defrocked. The Proddies I know, however, have no such excuse.
I think the last guy had a somewhat more enlightened approach to the abortion issue. There are a lot of us who are Pro-choice but staunchly anti-abortion. I like the fact that he said "embrace those that choose to have an abortion. It's not a pro-choice stance, but it's not really hardcore anti-choice either.
What is the deal with the guy who kept saying the Jesus wasn't political? Is he reading the same New Testament I am? WTF?
My name is Jocelyn and I like to blog. I also like Jesus. I also take umbrage with certain Christians, because they're a bunch of hypocritical fuck-nuts. WTFWJD? reflects these many and varied interests.
What I do here is pretty simple: I find news stories about shit Christians pull; then I find a corresponding Bible verse that says that's not OK; and then I post it here and let the hilarity ensue.
And in case you're wondering, we use the NIV Bible around here. Mostly because it's not the NASB.

And, shockingly, only one woman represented. Also, is it a huge surprise that all the men profiled were staunchly pro-life?
Just once I'd like to see a straight male clergy member take a pro-choice stance on this. I know you're out there, guys. Step up!
