In case anyone is interested in the teaching of the Catholic Church on this matter: It is the duty of every legislature to pass a law outlawing abortion, and imposing a penalty for performing abortions, one that is commensurate with the crime of homicide. It is also the duty of every governor and D.A. to enforce such laws. It is also the duty of every police officer to behave in a manner that acknowledges that people are murdered in abortion clinics--i.e., it is a crime for a governor, judge, a prosecutor, or a police officer to arrest or impede or frustrate efforts by citizens to protect innocent life that is in peril.

All decisions by any court, and all acts by any legislature, which have as their purpose marking out some segment of the human population as not entitled to protection from homicide, are null. The duties of all public officials, whether legislators, executives, or judges, are unaffected by any law, court order, or judicial decision, which purports to authorize the commission of homicide.

The fact that no bishop in the United States has said anything resembling the above since April 1973 does not alter the fact that this is the moral law.

Preach it brother! It's a Nuremburg thing. Can anyone see these ultrasounds and claim ignorance?

And yet Michigan's self-proclaimed "Catholic" governor still has the raw nerve to accept communion on Sundays.
