Houston’s own pastor Stephen Bratton of Grace Family Baptist Church was a loud and outspoken critic of any attempt in Texas to following the constitutional right of a woman to have an abortion.

Honey, that man practically stalked the capitol building and any pulpit he could find to save the lives of “the unborn.”  He was zealot and a Christian soldier.

Bratton recently testified in support of failed House Bill 896 that would have abolished abortions in Texas and opened up the possibility that prosecutors could charge a woman who undergoes the procedure with criminal homicide. The offense can be punishable by the death penalty under current Texas law.

So, as you would suspect, he was abusing children.

Bratton told his wife about the abuse in May, and admitted to his co-pastors at Grace Family Baptist Church that same day that he had “sinned in grievous ways,” according to court documents.

This guy joins a long string of hypocrites hiding behind rightwing theology.
