Pope John Paul II asserts in Evangelium Vitae (#62), “No circumstance, no purpose, no law whatsoever can ever make licit an act which is intrinsically illicit, since it is contrary to the Law of God which is written in every human heart, knowable by reason itself, and proclaimed by the Church.”

Unfortunately, he also rails against the "tyranny" of markets and unbridled capitalism. Would that be considered a "thinly veiled swipe" at conservative Republicans?

Jesus revealed the nature of human dignity.

Abortion (and all that leads up to it, I venture) is against human dignity.

Simple.

Amen!

Nor is it "progressive" to "fundamentally transform" the United States of America from a place of individual freedom into one where imperfect persons in government rule over "the People," whose Constitution is "the People's law to restrain those very "transformers."

In fact, that "fundamental transformation" puts the U. S. back into the same or worse "old world" philosophy from which its brave Founders had escaped!

So-called "progressives" have turned upside down the philosophy of America's Declaration of Independence and Constitution, documents whose unique idea was a revolutionary governmental arrangement of Creator over People over Government--a concept which changed the world and resulted in a place where oppressed people from all the world sought refuge and opportunity.

Deliberately, and over decades totaling more than a Century, so-called "progressives," substituting their own arrogance for wisdom, are now turning the great American experiment into a Government over People, substituting themselves for the "Creator," and leaving what the Declaration of Independence called "Divine Providence" and "the Supreme judge of the world" out of the picture entirely.

Now, America can return to the heap of failed civilizations who did the same.
