Christian Pregnancy Center Freed From Abortion Postings

A Baltimore ordinance requiring a Christian “pregnancy center” to post notices that it doesn’t offer abortion referrals or birth control violates its free speech rights, a federal appeals court in Virginia ruled.

In a 2-1 decision, the U.S. Appeals Court in Richmond today upheld a lower court ruling that bars Baltimore from enforcing a 2009 law requiring “limited-service pregnancy centers” to visibly disclose their stance on abortion and birth control.

Among those challenging the ordinance was the Pregnancy Center, which operates two locations in the city promoting abstinence, Bible studies and classes in prenatal development. The Pregnancy Center said it doesn’t provide abortion referrals due to its moral and religious beliefs.

“In compelling that speech, the Pregnancy Center is, in this case, required to participate in the city’s effort to tell pregnant women that abortions are available elsewhere as a morally acceptable alternative, contrary to the moral and religious beliefs of the Pregnancy Center,” according to the majority ruling written by U.S. Circuit Judge Paul Niemeyer and joined by Judge G. Steven Agee.

Deus lumen cordis mei
et panis orisintus animae meae
et virtus maritans mentem meam
et sinum cogitationis meae ?
Non te amabam,
et fornicabar abs te,
et fornicanti sonabat undique :
''euge, euge''.
