Is the creator of these still anti-abortion? It's marred my enjoyment of them since finding out a few years back.

According to him, he follows Jesus, so presumably so.

Well I follow Odin, can I throw a brick at them?

Jesus was a carpenter so he might start building a house.

Besides that, in Jewish culture life starts at first breath and the bible literally has a recipe for abortion in it (not a very good one and it's around wildly sexist context but it is there)

If christians followed their teachings of their god I wouldnt have nearly as much of a problem with them, I doubt theyd build a house with my brick.

[-] Pratai@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Imagine creating a comic strip of this subject, and being anti-abortion simultaneously.

The hypocrisy is mind-blowing.

[-] Sunfoil@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Well abortion is a philosophical debate more than it is a scientific fact.

[-] Nima@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Aww really? I didn't know about that. that's kind of a shame.

In April 2019, a Twitter post by Pyle from 2017 resurfaced regarding the pro-life rally March For Life. According to some reporters, Pyle's tweet expressed support for, or defended, March For Life. The tweet caused many[who?] fans to turn against Strange Planet and its creator, in a controversy described by at least one outlet as an example of the Milkshake Duck phenomenon.

Pyle released a statement shortly afterwards which did not mention abortion, but said that he and his wife "have private beliefs as they pertain to our Christian faith. We believe separation of church and state is crucial to our nation flourishing." He also stated they voted for the Democratic Party, and were "troubled by what the Republican Party has become and [did] not want to be associated with it."

I hope he's changed since then. thank you for sharing.

I don't agree with his viewpoint, but I do respect the mentioning of "separation of church and state." The way I understood his statement was that he personally doesn't support abortion, but that the government shouldn't regulate abortion based on that.

I might have understood wrong though, feel free to lmk if you read it differently
