Katholikos Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 There have been [b]42,213,715[/b] little pre-born humans killed by abortion in the U.S. alone since Roe v. Wade became law. Killings continue at the rate of [b]25,000 per week[/b]. Many Protestant churches support these deaths. Some (e.g., certain Lutherans) even provide insurance for their denomination's employees to cover the cost of their abortions. Budge and other Protestants hit Catholics over the head with the big stick of the Spanish Inquisition, in which some 3,000 to 5,000 adults lost their lives at the hands of the State (not the Church) after having been found guilty of heresy. What are these millions of babies convicted of that they are condemned to torture and death? There's no comparison between the Inquisition and the torture and death of millions at the hands of abortionists, with the approval of many Protestants.

avemaria40 Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 They are even twisting Catholic teaching to make it sound like the Church supports abortion. Sick! There is NOWHERE in Christianity that supports abortion. NOWHERE! I pray every day that it ends. There is no freedom if our most innocent children are not given the freedom to live and the Bible says we have to protect the innocent. It's our God-given duty!

Since there are about 1.5 million babies tortured and killed every year in the U.S., in the 13 years while she supported UU, there were almost 20 million babies killed. How does that compare with the Inquisition, Budge? None of us Catholics were personally responsible for the Inquisition, but you were a card-carrying member of UU while this carnage was going on. ---------------------------------------------- Blessed Father Damien, pray for us!

[/quote] You don't get a taint from the actions of people you've never even met. Catholics have no taint for the inquisition. Budge has no taint because she was a member of a church that supported abortion. If Budge had an abortion, that is between her and God. If she didn't then she is innocent of any such charges.

[/quote] I have no doubt that some of my university tuition went to the women's center which supports contraceptives (including handing them out) and abortion. Some of my tuition went to the Resource Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity which used some of that money to buy condoms and lube to hand out for free to the homosexual community. Some of my money went to Student Health which prescribes birth control and morning after pills and counsels their use. By attending that university am I guilty of those things?
EcceNovaFacioOmni Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 (edited) As for the CFFC paragraph, there is [u]nothing[/u] in Catholic tradition that supports the pro-choice position. It is definitive: [quote]I declare that direct abortion, that is, abortion willed as an end or as a means, always constitutes a grave moral disorder, since it is the deliberate killing of an innocent human being. This doctrine is based upon the natural law and upon the written Word of God, is transmitted by the Church's Tradition and taught by the ordinary and universal Magisterium.

[/quote]And my taxes are used for foreign aid to countries who have population control as their policy, including abortion and contraception. And my taxes support Planned Barrenhood. But I have no choice in the matter. If I don't pay my taxes, I go to prison. Members of "churches" who support abortion knowingly pay for it through their contributions. They could choose not to support abortion by withdrawing their membership. Many pro-life folks have done exactly that. One situation is providing voluntary support, the other involuntary. ================================ Blessed Father Damien, pray for us!
Groo the Wanderer Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 (edited) Before everyone starts slapping Budge around with a trout, stop for a sec and breathe. Now heft that mighty trout and whack those upside the head that REALLY need to be fish-slapped: those 'catholics' who support abortion, especially those in or formerly in our funky Congress. Ted 'chappaquiddick' Kennedy John 'medal tosser' Kerry Geraldine 'chicken legs' Ferraro Joe 'commie' Biden Thomas 'skank' Daschle Patrick 'just another drunk' Kennedy Nancy 'death to america' Pelosi I know I have missed some...continue the list please? Before we go after the Prots that support the wholesale slaughter of our babies, we should go after those who should know better because of the graces given to them. Edited November 6, 2006 by Groo the Wanderer
Katholikos Posted November 6, 2006 Author Posted November 6, 2006 Groo, the Catholic Church is the strongest pro-life organization in the country. The Church is responsible for what she teaches, not for dissidents who act in direct contradiction to her teaching. I agree that these folks you have named (and more) are disgraceful. What do you recommend? Bamboo shoots under the fingernails? Where were you when Budge was beating us up over the Inquisition?
Winchester Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 However, I doubt Budge supports abortion. She is Catholic, after all. indelible.
