In Case Anybody Was Still Confused On The Right to Life Issue
The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that human life must be protected "from the moment of conception" and that abortion "is gravely contrary to the moral law." In his 1995 letter Evangelium Vitae, the "Gospel of Life," Pope John Paul II wrote that abortion and euthanasia cannot be justified under any circumstance:
"Abortion and euthanasia are thus crimes which no human law can claim to legitimize. There is no obligation in conscience to obey such laws; instead there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection. ... .In the case of an intrinsically unjust law, such as a law permitting abortion or euthanasia, it is therefore never licit to obey it, or to take part in a propaganda campaign in favour of such a law, or vote for it."

Leading up to elections, I think the last four words are the most important.
How long before one of our militant readers wants to contest this doctrine on the blog?
Totally awesome post!
Thank you for being a defender of the faith.
Too many of our so-called catholics are not practicing what the Church teaches these days and it only serves to de-value the doctrine of the faith when we allow those around us to call themselves "good Catholics" when they are not living ALL of the tenets of our Church's teaching.
We do not need to be "Catholic cops" so much as we need to be mindful peers to help each other to live a virtuous Catholic life.
Love the souls around you today.
From John Leary:
Jesus said: “My people, be aware that the one world people are already making preparations for capturing religious and patriotic people whom they see as a threat to their new world order. This vision of shackles on trucks and railroad cars is real as you have discovered, and people will be taken to detention center death camps at the announcing of martial law. I have My faithful also making preparations at refuges so My people will have a place of protection to hide from the authorities who will try to kill you for your faith in Me. Read in the Book of Revelation how the evil ones want to kill those who will not take the mark of the beast and will not worship the Antichrist. Pray for My help to warn you when it is the time to go to My refuges with your guardian angel.”
Jesus said: “My people, I have given you many messages concerning the preparations for My refuges. I have told you that everyone will have their own living quarters, even if it has to be a multistory building where there is little land. Be at peace that I will perform many miracles of grace through My angels that will protect you and provide for your needs. It is difficult to tell people of this coming tribulation, but they can read about it in the Book of Revelation and see all of the signs of evil all around that describe the end times. Be patient and have hope in your God, for I will be the victor over these evil ones. You will have your reward for being faithful to Me when you come into My Era of Peace.”
