"Since Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20, religious leaders from major faiths have had to grapple with the administration’s stance on a range of issues, often resulting in a blend of hope and dismay, the AP reported.

"On issues like abortion, Biden has created angst amongst Roman Catholic Church and Southern Baptist Convention leaders, as the president has indicated strong support for abortion rights for women, according to the AP.

“It is deeply disturbing and tragic that any president would praise and commit to codifying a Supreme Court ruling that denies unborn children their most basic human and civil right,” Archbishop Joseph Naumann of Kansas City, Kansas and Chair for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Pro-Life Activities told The Associated Press when asked about Biden’s abortion views.

"While unpopular with Catholics and Southern Baptists, Biden’s pro-choice stance is expected to draw support from mainline Protestant denominations as well as the Reform and Conservative branches of Judaism, the AP reported.

"Support of Roe v. Wade was an integral component of Biden’s wider agenda in 2020 on the campaign trail. (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Banks Attempts To Block Biden From Undoing Trump Pro-Life Policy Despite Democratic Majority)

“ 'We need judges who will respect Roe v. Wade as the law, and we need a Congress that will protect reproductive rights,” Biden said in a March 2020 tweet." . . .

"It's easy to make accusations and point fingers without any true regard for biblical foundations and practical implications.  If a call to action lacks a true biblical foundation, all practical applications are moot, especially if the areas of concern lack specificity." . . .
