Anne Lamott takes back her Christian morality and stands up for the "already born". I agree that we've let the C³ (Creepy Conservative Christians) claim the position "moral" on too many issues: poverty and security and education as well as abortion.

Also, abortion is not a choice; no one "chooses" to have an abortion (gee, what shall I do today? Go to the beach? Read a book? I know, I'll have an emotionally fraught medical procedure!). Personal bodily security is non-negotiable; it's the automatic default position, or at least, it should be.

I'm not sure what Moore et al. are trying to accomplish, but I'm pretty certain that now is not the right time to be doing it.
