            DC (LifeNews.com) --</B> A coalition of mainline Protestant churches 
            have authored a letter to members of Congress asking them to make 
            certain the health care bills they are considering contain taxpayer 
            funding for abortions. The letter comes from a group of churches that 
            have long advocated the pro-abortion position.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.lifenews.com/nat5535.html"><FONT size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000">Under 
            the umbrella of the Religious Institute, the church denominations 
            and more than 1,100 pastors and church staff from the denominations 
            endorsed the letter.</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.lifenews.com/nat5535.html"><FONT size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000">The 
            letter calls abortion a “morally justifiable decision” and 
            opposed any amendments to the House and Senate bills, which current 
            contain massive abortion funding, to strike that taxpayer-financing.</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.lifenews.com/nat5535.html"><P><FONT size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000">The
