“The View” co-hosts agreed President Joe Biden “does not believe in abortion” due to his Catholic faith during a Thursday segment.

Guest co-host Lindsey Granger said the country, including other Democrats, do not know where Biden stands on the issue of abortion. The president said the right to an abortion comes from being a “child of God” in a Wednesday address regarding the leaked draft of the Supreme Court opinion set to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“We do know where Biden stands. He’s a Roman Catholic. He does not believe in abortion, but he’s the President of the whole United States, and so he is governing as the president,” co-host Whoopi Goldberg said. “That’s where he stands, that’s where a lot of folks stand and that’s okay.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin revealed that she opposes abortion as a Roman Catholic, but learned not to impose her beliefs on the rest of the country and toward Americans who may support the procedure. (RELATED: Media Treats Catholicism In Vastly Different Ways Depending On Politics)

“There is that wonderful thing in our country called the separation of church and state,” Hostin said. “That’s something that I learned about in law school and that I think most people know about, and I myself am also a Roman Catholic, a proud Roman Catholic. And I’ve said it many, many times, you ladies have taught me so much when it comes to my position on abortion.”

“I came into this show five years ago saying, ‘I am pro-life and anyone that has an abortion is wrong, they’re killing babies, how dare they?’ And that was my position,” she continued. “My position now is I think it is wrong. I think life begins at conception, that is my faith. I am not going to make that judgement call for anyone else.”

Co-host Joy Behar said when former President John F. Kennedy ran as the first Catholic president he received criticism for his allegiance to the Vatican.

According to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Catholic Church teaches that abortion is “gravely contrary to the moral law” and an attack on a human being with “human destiny.” (RELATED: ‘We Cannot Stay Silent’ On Biden’s Pro-Abortion Stances, Leading Catholic Bishop Says)

The media labeled Biden as a “devout Catholic” when he first assumed office in 2021 despite Catholic bishops and organizations condemning the label due to his support for maintaining abortion laws and calls to codify Roe v. Wade. Father Robert E. Morey denied the then-presidential candidate communion at an October 2019 mass at Saint Anthony Catholic Church in South Carolina for being an abortion advocate.

The president told reporters on Tuesday that Roe v. Wade, along with mainstream religions, state that the existence and beginning of human life is a “question” and therefore the Court should not make a judgement on where life begins.

Catholic teaching states that human life begins at the moment of conception, according to Catholic news outlet EWTN.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
