The New York Times has published a glowing article in praise of Christian and Jewish ministers who conduct “blessings” of abortion clinics in America.

A Baptist minister, a Presbyterian pastor, and a Jewish cantor walked quietly through an abortion clinic where they “blessed the exam tables and their stirrups, the boxes of disposable gowns and the cushioned chairs in the recovery room,” the Times notes approvingly in Friday’s article.

“Through a ritual blessing of the year-old clinic,” the piece states, the faith leaders “wanted to show that religion could be a source of support for abortion rights.”

“You all are blessings to those who come to you for care during some of their most vulnerable and sometimes painful moments,” said the Rev. Katey Zeh, an ordained Baptist minister, to staff members gathered in the clinic’s waiting room.

The story failed to mention whether the three also blessed the scissors inserted into the base of the baby’s skull, the saline solution that scalds the child’s flesh, the suction machine used to aspirate the chopped-up body parts, or the forceps used to grab at the baby’s limbs to rip them out, one by one.

During the blessing of the new clinic, 27-year-old Ramsie Monk “wept as one of her colleagues described her grief over the end of legal abortion in West Virginia,” the article states.

“Being in abortion care, you have a target on your back for so many reasons,” Monk said, adding that she stopped going to church because she felt hostility from other members when they learned about her job at the abortion clinic.
