If you want to help carry out the anti-abortion mission of the taxpayer-funded Care Net Pregnancy Resource Center, you have to be a Christian.
It’s right there on the Rapid City, S.D., center’s volunteer application.
“Do you consider yourself a Christian?” “If yes, how long have you been a Christian?” “As a Christian, what is the basis of your salvation?” “Please provide the following information concerning your local church. Church name … Denomination … Pastor’s name.” “This organization is a Christian pro-life ministry. We believe that our faith in Jesus Christ empowers us, enables us, and motivates us to provide pregnancy services in this community. Please write a brief statement about how your faith would affect your volunteer work at this center.”
But that hasn’t stopped the center from receiving federal funding and other forms of government support.
Actually, this is a good thing. Because South Dakota won't let a woman get an abortion until she's had anti-abortion counseling - this place would be the third. In the entire state. Wonderful odds, though since there is only one Planned Parenthood in all of South Dakota.
So my question of course is this: How do they qualify for federal funding? They even got $34k from the President's stimulus. Well done, Mr. President.
It's a wonderful article. Enjoy. Well - you know. If you actually read, and don't just knee-jerk react.
