“There was a time in my life when I was ‘pro-choice.’ I was raised by parents who were adamantly pro-life members of the Baptist church in the small Georgia town where I grew up, but their passion for this cause had little effect on me at the time. When I left the Baptist church as a teenager, my immaturity and rebellion against any kind of faith allowed little room in my thinking for considering how I felt about abortion. The next two decades spent in the ‘spiritual wilderness’ saw my youthful apathy morph into a detached ‘pro-choice’ attitude. I would not fully embrace being pro-life until I began studying Catholic teaching prior to my conversion to the Church in 2005.”
In a recent commentary, Randy Hain, Senior Editor for The Integrated Catholic Life, reflected on life issues.
