Criswell, the late First Baptist Dallas’ pastor, and a former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, back in the sixties, said, “I have always felt that it was only after a child was born and had a life separate from its mother that it became an individual person and it has always, therefore, seemed to me that what is best for the mother and for the future should be allowed.”
