"but it is Christians that have been fighting Roe since day 1."

'Day One'?????????

Say WHAT?

The year is 2005 C.E. (that's: year 2,005 of the Christian Era).

Christian's AIN'T been 'fighting Roe' since 'day 1'... not even close.

For some 80% of the entire history of Christianity, the official position of the Church was (variously) that the not-yet-human fetus became en-souled at birth, when the first breath was taken (as the Bible says)... and later, until quite recently, the popular position became that en-soulment happened at quickening.

As far as the American court decision 'Roe'... even there there are a number of Christian Churches with quite varied opinions.

Re: "I’m not interested in getting into a theological debate"

That's fine. Just don't forget what the Bible does say in it about the matter, the next time you do want to discuss the 'position of Christianity'.
