...The Presbyterian Church USA Assembly has reaffirmed its support for abortion. The church body says it supports abortion "if the baby is too young to survive outside the womb." After that, it said, abortion is acceptable only to save a woman's life, avoid fetal suffering, or in cases of rape or incest. At a meeting in Columbus, Ohio, the assembly approved a measure that also says the mother must receive counseling from pastors and doctors. Supporters called the vote "a reasonable compromise" in line with the church's pro-abortion stand. But pro-life advocates oppose the pro-abortion proposal. They say it allows for too many exceptions. The Presbyterian church body also disapproved a resolution from a local church group urging the national body not to pay for abortions in the pension plans of church officials.
