Elisabeth Hasselbeck

Elisabeth Hasselbeck returns to "The View" and talks abortion and freedom of choice with Whoopi Goldberg.

"I believe our creator assigns value to life, and that those lives have plan and purpose over them as designed by God that are not limited to the circumstances of conception, nor the situations they're born into," Hasselbeck said at the top of the segment dealing with abortion. Former co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck made a return to "The View" on Wednesday, where she clashed with fellow-host Whoopi Goldberg on matters of abortion. If we can't do that as a society, we're really teaching our kids the wrong way to talk about hard things."

"As you know, God doesn't make mistakes," Goldberg said on "The View" in a debate about abortion rights.

I will say this, that life has a plan and a purpose designed by God," she said. Goldberg then added: "I say this with love in my heart. I just want to make sure we all know that. That's the beauty of giving us freedom of choice." "As you know, God doesn't make mistakes," Goldberg said. I don't ever think that I can make any decision for you and your family that you are not smart enough to make for yourself."

"The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg and guest co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck debated God's position on abortion amid Kansas upholding protections.

"One thing I did read in the Bible that was enforced over and over and over is, 'Thou shall not judge.' You will have your judgment day," Haines expressed. Hasselbeck was a conservative voice on the show and returned Wednesday as a guest host. Hasselbeck was a full time co-host on "The View" from 2003 until she left the show in 2013.

She's the tough-talking, God-fearing Republican who's never been afraid to take on Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar — so can Elisabeth Hasselbeck take a little ...

Meanwhile, Farah Griffin could cost “The View” celebrity guests. Farah Griffin has since disowned Trump and publicly stated that she regrets working for the former commander-in-chief. For four seasons, she was able to bring “The View” back to its Hasselbeck-era glory days, setting social media alight as she squabbled with her other co-stars. Hasselbeck was fired in 2013, with producers wanting to change up the show’s cast. She also became a vociferous defender of Republican principles and policies. Ratings have been sagging without a right-leaning co-host, compounded by embarrassing missteps from Goldberg and Behar — and Hasselbeck could help bring back eyeballs.

Former 'Fox & Friends' host Elisabeth Hasselbeck discussed faith and economic challenges in America, saying she still has 'hope' despite various concerns.

"I think admitting that things feel hard is important for kids," she said. The story aims to teach children about God and quell their fears of uncertainty. "I do have concerns, but I'm always with hope," she continued.
