Prominent Jesuit Priest [and Former House Chaplain] Says Good Catholics Can Be Pro-Choice
Breibart ^ | 1/5/22 | Thomas D. Williams

Posted on 01/06/2022 6:02:40 PM PST by marshmallow

Catholics can support a woman’s right to kill her unborn child in good conscience declared Jesuit Father Pat Conroy in an interview published Wednesday in the Washington Post.

Father Conroy, who served for a decade as chaplain of the U.S. House of Representatives drew a distinction between being pro-abortion and pro-choice, insisting that “a pro-choice Democrat isn’t a pro-abortion person,” and it is an error to judge any pro-choice Democrat “as pro-abortion.”

“I want to know the American who thinks the government should take away their choice in any area of their life — any area of their life,” the priest stated in reference to women. “It’s an American value that each one of us can choose where our life is going. That happens to be a Catholic value, too.”

“Choice is a highly American value and it’s a church value,” he declared.

“A good Catholic in our system could be saying: Given women in our system have this constitutional right, our task as fellow Christians, or as Catholics, is to make it possible for her to optimize her ability to make the choice,” Conroy asserted.

This S.O.B. was brought in by Boehner. Even pathetic Paul Ryan tried to get rid of him.

There is no such thing as pro-choice. It’s permissive....and therefore can really only be pro-kill.

Infanticide is no big deal. It says so right there in the Bible. Absolutely.

I’m sure if he were around 2,000 years ago, he would have advised Mary to get an abortion.

It all starts with Pope Frankie.

He enabled the pro-infanticide crowd in the Dem Party namely Piglosi and Joey.

The Pope should NEVER publicly appear with those who oppose church doctrine although I am beginning to question how much a part of Catholic doctrine is the opposition to infanticide.

For his next trick, he will tell you that a good Catholic can also worship a golden calf.

Dear Father Conroy,

Abortion is murder!

What part of the Sixth Commandment do you not understand?

“Thou shall not murder.”

Sincerely,

A concerned Christian

If you are pro choice, you are pro abortion. Abortions are the killing of a human. Thou shalt not kill is a commandment from God. You cannot be a Christian and believe in abortion. Period. This is why I searched for years to find my church. No one I know there is pro choice If they are, they must take it up with the Lord at their meeting in Heaven.

In my opinion, Jesuits are a pariah group. They are the CIA of the Vatican, known for skullduggery and deception. They only recruit Phd’s and Masters degree candidates. Egghead’s all and uberliberal. They are to be shunned.

At what point does it become wrong to kill your child? Who establishes that point? If it’s ok to choose to kill your child when it’s inside of you, why isn’t it ok to kill a child when it’s outside of you? Riddle me that Mr Jesuit.
