Southern Baptist Convention Calls for the "Immediate and Complete" Defunding of "Immoral" Planned Parenthood"Scripture clearly affirms the sanctity of human life throughout all stages of development. God abhors the shedding of innocent blood and requires His people to do all in their power to rescue persons from such acts." -Excerpt from SBC Resolution (Phoenix, AZ)—[LifeSiteNews] The largest Protestant denomination in the U.S. officially denounced abortion giant Planned Parenthood as "immoral" at their annual convention this week and called on Congress to "immediately and completely" defund it.

"We urge the United States Congress to defund Planned Parenthood immediately and completely of all federal government support and that all state and local government funding that supports Planned Parenthood be withdrawn immediately and permanently," the resolution adds. The resolution, approved on Tuesday, reaffirmed the Baptists' "absolute commitment to the sanctity of human life." It was titled "On Defunding And Investigating Planned Parenthood." The Baptists also urged the U.S. Department of Justice to "pursue criminal charges against Planned Parenthood Federation of America and its affiliates for their use of illegal abortion methods, trafficking in and profiting from the harvesting of unborn babies' tissues and organs, and any other actions that may be in violation of federal law."
