Calling in the troops, eh?
Well, let’s see you square this circle: The Catholic church and its members actively assisting in infanticide in this country which guarantees “life (liberty and property)”.
We find a single cell somewhere millions of miles, or light-years, away and that’s `life.’ But a viable fetus isn’t “life” down the street at the abortion clinic.
Go ahead, make my day.

I believe you're in error on this part:

The Catholic church and its members actively assisting in infanticide

Certainly some members go against Church teaching; however, the Catholic Church has always strongly opposed abortion.

Concerning church positions, on the non-Catholic side: from Wikipedia:

Protestant supporters of abortion rights include the United Church of Christ, the United Methodist Church, the Episcopalian Church, and the United Presbyterian Church, the Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church (USA), The United Church of Christ, The United Methodist Church, and the Lutheran Women's Caucus.[9][28] The American Baptist Churches USA, Episcopal Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, the Presbyterian Church (USA) and The United Church of Christ consider abortion permissible under certain restricted circumstances.

Nope, just pinging people who may have an interest in this odd story. tumblindice wrote:

tumblindice:

I don't suppose you would care to give specific proof that the Catholic Church to which I belong is somehow "actively assisting in infanticide." I would offer contrary evidence in the Catechism of the Catholic Church which provides for excommunication latae sententiae (automatic) for material cooperation in abortion and the papal encyclical Evangelium Vitae (Gospel of Life) by the late John Paul II. What have you got that proves otherwise?
