I am pro-life. I also don't think Roe v Wade was even constitutionally legal. However, despite what we all want to believe, life is not a mirror of the catechism. It is not black and white. Don't forget there are issues such as war. Innocent casualties. Hiroshima. Iraq. Anybody think that was or wasn't justified? Where is the outrage over that? We need to judge softly and carefully and infrquently.

**Don't forget there are issues such as war. Innocent casualties. Hiroshima. Iraq. Anybody think that was or wasn't justified? Where is the outrage over that? We need to judge softly and carefully and infrquently. **

Our catechism teaches us that is proper to take a life if an innocent life can be saved. It is not proper to kill innocents intentionally. Hiroshima and Iraq. I think they are both justifiable using the catechism. I can respect a well reasoned argument which uses the catechism though I would disagree with it.

But how exactly would you use the catechism to permit starving a woman to death?
