True, Pope Francis has been noticeably absent....tragic! As I’ve posted before having taught Catechism to US teens for 30 years, our youth today are MUCH more pro-life than when I started teaching. Sonograms really have helped (the girls all say “that’s a baby”). This was an issue that should have been a slam dunk for “life” and the Church but it looks like old man scat still has something to say as the prince of this world. I ain’t giving up though!
Somebody explain this to me. The pro-abort slogan was
Seriously, what does that even mean? "Trust" usually means "Trust to do the right thing." I trust they did their best. I trust you didn't take my wallet.
But here "Trust" means--- what? Trust they'll only get 'necessary' abortions? ("Save the mother's life' abortions were already legal.) "Trust they won't kill the good Irish babies, only the bad Irish babies?
Can we abolish traffic laws in Ireland, because we can "Trust the Irish"?
Can we abolish anti-rape laws in Ireland, because men should be able to do what they want with their own bodies? And they'll only rape women who need to be raped? "Trust the men"?
Evey law that exisst, exists because there are some people who will aggress against somebody else, or take advantage of somebody else, or act recklessly against somebody else, unless that 'somebody else' is protected by law.
This damned referendum will do what British oppression, Cromwell, war, genocide-level starvation and deportation could not do in 500 years: it will kill Ireland.
He doesn’t care because he won’t see the destruction that this will cause as others pointed out Muslims will replace the murdered babies. The pope will be dead.
