Trinity Bible Church “pastor” Mark Driscoll is under fire for implying on X that Jesus’ mother may have considered aborting him if a Planned Parenthood had been nearby.
The comment drew widespread condemnation from both Catholics and Protestants, who were united in their criticism of him. At the time of writing, Driscoll’s post had more than 126,000 impressions and only 129 likes; resulting in being heavily ratioed.
Notably, while there was no Planned Parenthood 2,000 years ago, abortion was well known and widely practiced in the ancient Roman world. Physicians commonly prescribed herbs, bloodletting, fasting, and extreme physical duress, rather than Mifepristone or using a scalpel and speculum.
Driscoll later added that he was using anachronism for rhetorical effect.
We last covered Mark Driscoll in our article Fox News Driscoll, which we catalogued him openly lying to his congregants, and also after we commented on his bizarre porno-visions:

unfathomable !
It’s truly sickening how many “Churches” have basically abandoned actual Christianity and Jesus in pursuit of a wider membership however ill suited.
More and more Churches are diving down this rabbit hole into obscurity and irrelevance.
I’m Catholic and my own Church is being hollowed out from within.
