Radical Abortion Activist James Talaarico is a False Prophet
James Talarico, a Democrat Senate Candidate in Texas, is a false prophet. He should be ashamed of himself for trying to deceive Christian voters into thinking the Bible justifies abortion… and all kinds of other unbiblical practices.
This is not a new approach among supporters of America’s holocaust. They’ve been doing it from the beginning.
Well before Roe vs. Wade, the “Clergy Consultation Service” started. It was a group of clergy who counseled and referred people to doctors who were willing to perform abortions illegally, or to the few places where it was legal, using the clergy-penitent privilege of confidentiality to avoid prosecution.

By the time abortion was legalized, they had facilitated the killing of almost half a million babies. (Good work, men of God!)
To this day, the organization that fuels the kind of twisted arguments Talarico – who has been studying to become a minister – utilizes is the “Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice” (RCRC.org). They have Bible studies about why abortion is OK, liturgies to bless the practice, and more.
The hijacking of religion to justify baby-killing was actually the key strategy for those who started the abortion industry, and their ringleader who, in his own words, “uncaged the abortion monster in the United States,” Dr. Bernard Nathanson. I knew him personally, and as he told me and a group of clergy, “We would never have gotten away with what we did if you, the clergy, had been united, purposeful and strong.”
Dr. Nathanson wrote about this in his books after becoming pro-life, saying his team caught the Catholic Church asleep on the issue and stole it from them, misrepresenting Catholic teaching and sowing division between Church leaders and the people they teach.
This tactic continued, right up to the present, with prominent “Catholic” public officials who likewise misrepresent Catholic teaching. There’s a long history here, starting with John F. Kennedy’s declarations of absolute separation between the demands of religion and public office, continuing through NY Governor Mario Cuomo and candidate Geraldine Ferraro and their public disputes on abortion with Cardinal John O’Connor, and exemplified in our day with the declarations of Dick Durbin, Nancy Pelosi, and Joe Biden about how everything is just fine as they fervently practice their Catholic faith and serenely join it with even more fervent promotion of abortion without limits paid for with taxpayer dollars.
Talarico is in pretty good (or bad) company. He’d also enjoy meeting Curtis Boyd, retired late-term abortionist who is a former Baptist minister and says he performed abortions not despite his faith, but because of it. The RCRC must be proud!
To get a taste of how disgusting all this is, consider Talarico’s take on the Annunciation (Luke 1:26-38). Gabriel announces to the virgin Mary that she will be the mother of Jesus. Talarico says that because God gave her a choice, it is therefore OK, according to God’s Word, for women today to have the choice to kill their babies in the womb.
Excuse me, but there’s a difference between the choice to bring a child into the world (a perfectly valid freedom) and the choice to throw a child out of the world through killing.
The Annunciation has nothing to do with baby-killing. In fact, the passage shows exactly the opposite. Whereas the prochoice mentality says it is my choice that matters, Mary responds to the angel saying the opposite. “Be it done unto me according to your word.” It is God’s choice that matters.
Both Peter and Paul warn that we must not use freedom as an excuse to do what is wrong (see 1 Peter 2:16 and Galatians 5:13).
And this whole debate, moreover, isn’t about particular words and passages in the Bible. It’s about the overarching themes from the beginning to end of the Bible: God’s dominion over human life, the blessings of fertility, the dignity of human life in God’s image, the curse of child sacrifice, the victory of life over death, and the meaning of love (which says “This is my body, given for you,” not “This is my body, I can kill you).
Yet this makes no impression on James Talarico. But hey, he’s in a political campaign, not just a seminary.
It sure is foolish to try to extract an interpretation of Scripture that somehow the community that wrote, handed on and lived the Bible somehow missed over the millennia that they have spent opposing abortion.
James Talarico should stop trying to hijack the Word of Life to support the culture of death.
If he’s in favor of baby killing, he should just say so and defend it on its own merits, rather than twisting a sacred book which apparently, he respects far less than the rest of us do.
