Group Straddles Line Between Religion and Planned Parenthood

Group Straddles Line Between Religion and Planned Parenthood | News - Indiana Public Media: The Indiana Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice is pro-religion and pro-choice. Interim president Carolyn Meagher sees the protest signs as a scare tactic.

“I think those [graphic abortion] signs are there to shock and scare people, to make people feel shame and guilt about decisions they may make about their childbearing,” Meagher said. “And I think when the extreme faction wants to show pictorial images, I think they’re trying to shame and scare people and make people feel guilty, and like they’ve created a sin, and what they’re doing is wrong.” Meagher said her group attempts to represent not a majority view, but that of several pluralities which she thinks aren’t as incompatible as some may think.
