“...the fact that this monster has privileges at a Catholic hospital indicates NOTHING.”
Sadly, no, it does indicate an horrific lapse in judgment.

Where in the article did you see the Catholic Church financing abortion?
You wrote:
“why would a catholic hospital want him working there knowing what he is doing?”
Why would an FR poster with an anti-Catholic fixation lie about what the article said?
Agreed, what I meant was that a physician's association with a hospital in no way indicates his religious affiliation. This monster could easily be a Baptist, Calvinist, Jew or atheist.
oh come on i misread it i’m sure that’s a mortal sin right
“Dr. Grossman would not be able to financially maintain himself on what he earns killing children one day a week. Does this not make Mercy Hospital in Durango and the Catholic Church a material facilitator to the killing? In effect, the Catholic Church, Mercy Hospital, and the Catholic Health Initiatives (based in Denver) are subsidizing abortion services in the Four Corners area.”
“Isn’t that what the word “subsidizing” means?”
Maybe. No question a scandal. Maybe a subsidy. Certainly shows poor judgment. Like hiring an arsonist as a fire inspector.
Injustice is injustice.
No doubt. What injustice are you referring to here? The killing of prenatal children?
Your hatred of God's Church makes so much more sense now.
I just find it curious a nun gets excommunicated for saving a woman’s life and then you have a dr performing abortions and who works at a catholic hospital
why would you assume that?
Hospitals cannot legally deny privileges to qualified practitioners. They can only deny privileges if educational or certification requirements are not met, or if there are serious quality issues with the care provided. As much as I would like to see guys like this denied privileges at all hospitals, it is simply not legal to do so.
I agree that trying to justify abortion as a "right" that may or may not be wicked and can be forgiven is an injustice.
Luckily for me the USSC has already done it.

She did not. She excommunicated herself by cooperating in the killing of an unborn child.

A scandal, no question. One that will get dealt with.
So somehow this is the “injustice” you see? The self-ex-communication of the abortion assisting Sister? Really?
“Luckily for me the USSC has already done it.”
Why is that “penumbra” lucky for you?
You have a nun who saves a life and a doctor to takes them and its the nun who has to pay for it.
So, you believe that a group of judges can overrule God's Law? That's a very peculiar belief.
