Please show me evidence that a plurality of catholic nuns want legalized abortion. Otherwise I will continue to assume they don't that via basic common sense, current catholic theology, experience, and history.
Catholic nuns in particular, BTW, are somewhat infamous for butting heads with power structures both in and outside the Church, from a progressive standpoint--birth control, sex work, women's rights, and GLBT rights are a handful of issues that have been known to come up. It seems to come from working directly with the affected people on the ground.
And of course many nuns do the same thing and remain staunchly conservative. People are people.
But if you think that you can accurately pigeonhole anyone with different beliefs than yours into a narrow little box, you're no better than the bogeyman you're fighting.
Your point is irrelevant to the discussion but I'm curious. Do you have a source for this? Greg Pincus' Wikipedia entry says absolutely nothing about his religious affiliation.
Right. If it was relevant, it might call your closely-held stereotypes into question. That seems ironic.
Also: John Rock, co-inventor of the Pill, along with Pincus and Chang. Interesting, and unfortunately Quixotic, character. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Rock_(American_scientist) My apologies, I should have said "co-inventor."
