Our local Right to Life Chapter marched in a parade a few days ago. I met two Catholics from Nigeria who are here to study in the seminary. Their society has no legal abortions. One of them told me that anyone who would consider such a thing would be widely viewed as insane in their country.
He shared with me a number of his impressions about our country, our media, etc. It was the first time I felt real shame for how far we have let our country degenerate. After talking with him for some time, my impression was that he saw America as a country in need of outside assistance and his dedicated missionary efforts.
To think that an international body may someday try to force legal, government financed abortions in Nigeria and countries like them, makes me a little crazy.
