Thank you both for your posts.
I know that non-Catholics are sometimes a little confused about certain Catholic beliefs and practices, but I always assumed that the Catholic position on abortion was quite clear and I just wanted to make sure I was correct.
I don’t think the position of the church is unclear at all.
I do know that some bishops in certain liberal theological/political enclaves will allow it to be obscurred....Notre Dame being an example.
And xzins is correct, too, that some attempt to obscure that fact. But I suspect there are rogues in every assembly. I've heard even the ever-so-isolated Amish have a rogue now and again. LOL!
