The Bishop of Lancaster, Patrick Donoghue says that abortion is to blame for the increase in violence in the UK. According to the Telegraph, Donoghue said, "For 41 years we've lived in a state-sponsored culture of death that has killed five million children, and we're now surprised that some of the surviving children have turned out violent with no regard for the sanctity of life?" Uh, maybe the "surviving children" feel hopeless because of the seismic gap between rich and poor in the UK and the still-rigid class structure that won't allow them to move ahead in life? Just a thought. [Telegraph]
