Faith of Our Fathers ping
If you remotely belive in the Catholic Faith and what it teaches about life, there is absolutely no way you can support abortion in any way shape or form.
Those that call themselves pro-abortion Catholics, are deluding themselves.
There are a lot of self-deluded Catholics, then.
May God grant us the clarity to see politicians aren’t responsible for abortion: women are.
“In various ways, Sen. Barack Obama and I may disagree on aspects of these important fundamentals, but I am convinced, based upon his public pronouncements and his personal writing, that on each of these questions he is not closed to understanding opposing points of views and, as best as is humanly possible, he will respect and accommodate them.”
Wonderful.
Puddin’ Head is “open” to “understanding” opposing viewpoints, and “respects” and “accomodates” them.
What the hell could possibly be more important than those empty, feel-good platitudes.
The baby still is murdered.
There is no difference in killing a one year old and a baby in the womb...except age.
They view their RC affiliation as political rather than one of Faith.
At best, apostates.
I'll go you one further on that: Anyone who claims to be a pro-abortion Christian (of any denomination) is deluding him/herself.
All Protestants should be pro-life as well...at least those that proclaim the veracity of the Bible.
“They view their RC affiliation as political rather than one of Faith.”
...or as Al Gore put it, “My faith tradition...”
'This website is not affiliated with the campaign of Barack Obama or with the Roman Catholic Church.'It's at the bottom of the web page
What next, Jews for Hitler?
Still takes two to tango.
these children who are aborted at this stage are either handicapped or suspected of being handicapped. This is the largely ignored variable in the discussion of partial birth or near full term abortions. Men and women of goodwill have to join the effort to save these children,”first they came for the disabled....then they came for me”.
"Tango" isn't the issue; abortion is the issue, and no one but a woman can exercise that option.
Those that call themselves pro-abortion Catholics, are not Catholics at all. They have ex-communicated themselves. They can call themselves Catholics until blue in the face, but it will not change the fact. If they receive communion in the state of mortal sin they commit a more grievous sin, in my opinion.
Human history at it's bloodiest. It teaches us that there will always be butchers around who are willing to do the bloody bidding of their masters. Then they attempt to rationalize their killing by legal and verbal gymnastics.
So-called Catholics who support Obama and his abortion stance are stained with the same blood that is on Obama's hands. They should all be ex-communicated, if the teaching of the Church is to carry any moral import. They need to learn the hard way that they cannot serve two Masters, and they need to choose which one they will serve, Moloch (abortion), or Christ (life).
There’s a new push today to have secondary issues such “social” issues such as the laundry list above take the weight of precedence over abortion. And the whole death penalty thing is bunk. The Church is NOT against the death penalty when correctly applied.
Indeed, radicals on the left believe that the difference in age inst really important, only the level of convenience or lack thereof represented by a baby. As evidence, I cite Princeton University Professor of Ethics Peter Singer (from his own website):
Newborn human babies have no sense of their own existence over time. So killing a newborn baby is never equivalent to killing a person, that is, a being who wants to go on living. That doesn’t mean that it is not almost always a terrible thing to do. It is, but that is because most infants are loved and cherished by their parents, and to kill an infant is usually to do a great wrong to its parents.
In the words of another great intellectual of our age, Barrack Obama:
But it should also include -- it should also include other, you know, information about contraception because, look, I've got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby.
