February 25 2014 – Faith & Politics: Abortion
Season 4, Episode 8 (Series, 2 of 6: Life-Beginnings and Endings)
Dr. Grace Sarvotham
For some it has become an “article of faith,” and sometimes it can sway an election. On this program of Friends Talking Faith with The Three Wise Guys we discuss faith and abortion. People of faith are often deeply divided on the issue of abortion, and for many it has become a central issue of their religious beliefs. The abortion debate began in the mid-1800’s in the United States. Then in 1973, following Roe vs. Wade, the religious conflict rose to new levels. We’ll discuss the issue of abortion from our differing faith perspectives. We also have a very special guest on this program: she’s an OB/GYN, and a person of faith. She’ll bring her unique perspective.
