WARNOCK: Well, I think that's one of the things that's on the ballot tomorrow.

And it is -- Herschel Walker's position on this is extreme. He says he wants a national ban, no exceptions. That would include rape, incest, the life of the mother. I think that's out of step with the women of Georgia, Democrats and Republicans.

And I get a lot of pushback from people who seem to think that they own the interpretation of the Gospel. But I have been studying the Scriptures my whole life. I'm committed to the faith. And, as a pastor, I have a profound reverence for life. And, as a pastor and a person of faith, I have a deep respect for choice.

And I still think, as I have said time and time again, that a patient's room is too small and cramped a space for a woman, her doctor and the United States government. But if we care about life, black women are dying three to four times the rate of white women in childbirth, as a result of childbirth.

And so, if you care about life, we ought to find a way. That's a place where government could show up...

REID: Yes.

WARNOCK: ... and address the obvious bias in our health care system.

REID: It's what Jesus would do.

WARNOCK: It -- I think it's exactly what Jesus would do.

So is there enough room in a patients room for the government or not? He doesn’t want the government there when they’re killing babies but it’s okay during childbirth? Sounds like someone is putting politics over his faith.
