Unfortunately in this guy’s case a flat EEG has not lead to a death certificate.
Geeze, in the Moral Theology class that I took it was clearly stated that abortion is a sin.
The USCC has had enough of “Whopper Dan” and has issued at least one public letter of admonishment.
And, thanks be to God, the Archbishop of Milwaukee also did so.
(No, it was not Abp. Weakland.)
See:http://dad29.blogspot.com/2007/06/marquette-us-perennial-embarassment.html
and follow the internal links.
History:
Abp. Weakland never required the Mandatum from anyone in Milwaukee at ANY ‘Catholic’ school—Marquette (SJ), Stritch (SSSF), Alverno (OSF), or Mount Mary (SSND).
Needless to say, those institutions also buried the Mandatum stuff somewhere in the ‘inbox.’
And there lies part of the problem. Are Catholic Universities “Catholic”? I would hope prospective students will do a bit of research before applying to any school.
According to Dr. Nathanson, there were deaths from botched abortions in the “old days.” He saw them as a young doctor. But when he founded NARAL, and they needed a statistic on deaths from “back-alley abortions,” they just made one up: 5000 per year. The real figure was somewhere in the neighborhood of 100, at most. And that’s for the entire U.S., in the bad old days of illegal abortion.
Marquette has issued a public statement that Maguire remains on their faculty only because of the exorbitant expense of firing him. (He has tenure.) But they also assured the public that they do not allow him to teach!
