Biden’s public response to the Texas Heartbeat Act, is an 'axe laid to the roots' of what is a foundational moral teaching of the Catholic Church.
(Priests for Life) – At midnight Sept. 1, the U.S. Supreme Court formally denied the request to block the Texas Heartbeat Act.
The act, now a law, requires abortionists to screen for a fetal heartbeat and prohibits abortion if a heartbeat can be heard. The law only allows exceptions for cases of medical emergency and it is already saving lives.
As LifeSiteNews reported: “NBC News reported Tuesday evening that “all 11 of the Planned Parenthood health centers in Texas” have “stopped scheduling visits after Sept. 1 for abortions past six weeks of pregnancy…”
You would think a faithful Catholic, one who regularly receives the Holy Eucharist, and presumably abides by core moral teachings of their Church, would be filled with joy and hope.
Not our Heretic in Chief.
Joe Biden apparently is upset there will be fewer babies killed by abortion:
“This extreme Texas law blatantly violates the constitutional right established under Roe v. Wade and upheld as precedent for nearly half a century…”
Biden goes on to lament that too many black and brown babies’ will be born now in Texas: “The Texas law will significantly impair women’s access to [abortion], particularly for communities of color…”
Are “communities of color” best served by abortion?
Since 1973, 13 million African American pregnancies have been ended by abortion. In spite of overall falling abortion rates in the U.S.…abortion ratios actually increased among black women as compared to white women… nearly half of all pregnancies among black women end in abortion.
…In New York City, where Planned Parenthood is headquartered, in some years more black babies have been aborted than are born alive (1,180 abortions for every 1,000 live births). (1)
And is this disproportionate rate of abortion good for “communities of color?”
Theresa Burke, Ph.D., developed the largest outreach in the world, Rachel’s Vineyard, for women and men hurting after abortion.
Dr. Burke shares:
“Abortion leaves poor women of color, who tend to have higher rates of sexual abuse and other trauma prior to their abortions, (2)vulnerable to ongoing exploitation, dysfunction and abuse in their relationships. The cycle continues; more abuse, more trauma, more abortions, more death.
Abortion prevention, and abortion healing – if possible after the initial abortion to prevent the trauma-related likelihood of repeat abortions – is an essential part of breaking dysfunctional dynamics in poor communities.”
San Francisco’s Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone wrote recently:
“Abortion is the axe laid to the roots of the tree of human life. Claims to respect the equal dignity of every human being sound hollow when one systematically enables or tolerates denying the right to life of the most vulnerable.
Rejecting abortion is a tall order for a Catholic Democrat in the current environment, I know. But… remember St. Thomas More…look deep in the soul and ask: Will I be God’s servant first?”
Biden’s public response to the Texas Heartbeat Act, is an “axe laid to the roots” of what is a foundational moral teaching of the Catholic Church.
Such a public action, demands a public response from our nation’s Bishops who must ask Joseph Biden the question posed by St Thomas More: “Will you be God’s servant first?”

We are fighting to save the lives of future Democrat voters.
What could be more selfless?
Joe ain’t Thomas More.
Children are a blessing from the Lord.
Then whose “blessing” is abortion?
Consequently you can know who the champions and providers of abortion serve.
Interesting how hard they work at killing babies,taking our guns and locking down our freedoms.
Roe v. Wade is patently UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
There is NO constitutional rationale in that decision to justify that ruling.
The fact is, the Constitution gives the feds NO power or authority over “healthcare” or abortion or to overturn state abortion laws and there is NOTHING in the reasoning of the decision to clearly show constitutional justification.
Roe v. Wade is therefore an invalid Court decision that should be NULLIFIED and IGNORED - states should absolutely keep and continue to implement their anti-abortion laws - and at some point Roe v. Wade should be OVERTURNED.
Biden is demented and corrupt. He simply says and does whatever the vile Marxist cabal that runs him tells him. If you study Catholic theology he may not be personally committing a sin since he is not able to comprehend the true nature of his actions or fully understand the consequences of his actions. Yet it would be hard to believe that he has been absolved by a good Confession when he was reasonably rational since he did not change his behavior. He is an evil man.
Oh,and shutting down a major pipe line
Do we really need to ask this question?
This guy is barely there mentally, but I’m pretty sure he gets his ultimate orders from Satan himself.
As long as he lives, there is still hope for him.
“I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born.”

well to paraphrase joe himself if you’re unsure you ain’t paying attention
Just for the record: Biden’s incredible immoral slide on abortion:
* Biden: 1977 & 1981: Votes AGAINST Medicaid funding of abortions for victims of rape and incest
* Biden 1994: “The government should not tell those with strong convictions against abortion, such as you and I, that we must pay for them.”
* Biden 2008: “[I am] prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at the moment of conception.”
* Biden 2012: “Life begins at conception, that’s the Church’s judgment. I accept it in my personal life. But I refuse to impose it on equally devout Christians and Muslims and Jews, and I just refuse to impose that on others ...”
* Biden 2019: “I announced that I could no longer continue to abide by the Hyde Amendment.”
* Biden 2021: “I respect those who believe life begins at the moment of conception ... don’t agree, but I respect that.”
I cannot help but wonder if Biden has been handed over to a reprobate mind.
Hunter Biden is being groomed by dad for high office on the “My Sperm Count is a Proven Winner” campaign slogan.
OTHERS SAY Hunter is SOL........a Space-Occupying Lesion of a different pathology ...........more of a malignancy, an abscess on the body politic.
