don't blame me if you throw up while [url="http://www.rhrealitycheck.org/blog/2009/04/07/we-already-have-abortion-pride-movement"]reading this article.[/url]
[quote]The importance of abortion as a human right integral to women's dignity, the destigmatization and normalization of the experience as common for women - there are now more than 46 million abortions occurring in the world today (close to half of which are illegal and unsafe) and one in three U.S. women will have an abortion by the age of 45 - and ending the silence and shame that women may still feel cannot be underestimated in the global struggle for reproductive justice and gender equality. When we normalize abortion as a fact of women's lives, and discuss abortion as an honorable and loving choice that helps women to become better mothers in the future, we are showing respect, understanding, and support for the complexity of women's choices.

So it was with great interest that I read and reflected upon Jacob Appel's "It's Time for an Abortion Pride Movement." This author and bioethicist emphasizes: "The political and social reality today is that pride is a necessary prerequisite for acceptance and equality. That is why the movement is ripe - more than ripe - for an Abortion Pride Movement."[/quote]
i'd quote more but i don't wanna be responsible for people ruining their keyboards by puking on them.

Not terribly surprised. Evil doesn't have a nice face. They can put on a mask though.

Wow. Are we asking for chastisement or what.

and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter! . . ."

Father Corapi:

[quote]God is not a disinterested spectator in the affairs of man. He knows every child by name from all eternity. He loves each one with His infinite love. God’s holy Catholic Church teaches that abortion in a single case is homicide. I assert that if this is the case, and it is, then the 50,000,000 homicides through abortion that have taken place in the United States since Roe v. Wade constitute genocide. God will not favor such a country, regardless of any other progress. Unless this outrage against God and humanity is stopped very soon, the United States of America, and in turn all of the Western world, will realize the death wish that it has manifest for several decades.

Every Catholic, Christian, Jew, and all people of good will and right reason must pray and do penance rigorously and daily from now on for the defeat of this heinous evil we call abortion. If we fail, then Western society as we know it will soon collide with a disaster it will not survive.[/quote]

I felt a little light headed, so I stopped reading. I think the title says it all.

Thought I posted this post already...oh well. What I said was:
Fr. Corapi is a very wise man.
I fear that we'll find these words to be all too true.
