Continuing the Wikipedia quote for context

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."[25][26][27]

Honestly, I think it's 100% reasonable, and is basically the same thing Biden says. He says they're Catholic and personally do not believe in abortion, but that he also believes his religious beliefs shouldn't be shoved on Americans and shouldn't be the basis for legislation. I don't have an issue with anyone who feels abortion is wrong, I just take issue if they force that belief on everyone else.

It's not reasonable for him to say "my beliefs are private" and also support an anti abortion rally in public.

You can be pro life and still see that those policies are needlessly cruel.

There’s a big gap you can fall into while being pro life between forcing women to carry dead fetuses until they become horribly sick and suggesting that healthy fetuses be carried but maybe given up for adoption. Plus you can be against abortion privately without suggesting it be banned altogether.

Honestly his response there sounds like he’s not one of those insane people.

In America there are two acceptable views.

Alive at conception
It's ok to kill a fully born baby as long as it hasn't breathed yet

Both came from religion. I can see why some people pick the first one when given only these two options. You wouldn't want to be a le enlightened centrist after all.

"pro-life" is those policies.
