NY Bishops Statement on (So-Called) Equal Rights Amendment

Please take a moment to read the NY State Catholic Bishops’ statement on the (so-called) Equal Rights Amendment (aka Proposition One). This will be on the ballot and we urge you to be informed!

The Bishops conclude:

“Proposal 1 is a wolf in sheep’s clothing that could lead to darkness for many New York families. This amendment disregards the lives of unborn and struggling children in the name of political agendas. It could have dangerous consequences for these children and their parents. As they look to make their voices heard in the public square, faithful Catholics should consider these consequences and vote no. Likewise, they should thoughtfully vote their informed conscience up and down the ballot so that we might usher in change for good.”

Life-Limiting Prenatal Diagnoses and Beauty

While it is sad that this study was initiated with what seems to be an unquestioned assumption that it is, unusual, to “continue pregnancy after a life-limiting prenatal diagnosis”…we are very happy to see this result:

While we might choose a term like, “integral beauty” (the beauty of life is not some accident but rather is integral to life itself)…it is wonderful that this qualitative study included as an outcome, “…feelings of gratitude towards life…”

Hopefully this will picked up on by these and other researchers in the future!

Pro-Choice or Pro-Abortion?

Over the years we have often heard those on the “other side” of the abortion debate make the claim that they are “Pro-Choice, not Pro-Abortion.” These folks generally argue that they would be happy if there were zero abortions…and…that abortion should always be an option.

We have every reason to believe that a given individual who takes this position is being sincere…and…we hope that such people understand that they are helping to advance the cause of those who are truly and zealously Pro-Abortion.

Take a look at this article from The Pillar, noting in particular the actions of Pro-Abortion states like New York and California. There is no reasonable interpretation other than those behind such diabolical government actions WANT abortions to occur. Period.

Keep this in mind next time you hear someone claim to be “Pro-Choice, not Pro-Abortion.” Hopefully consideration of their cooperation in the success of the truly evil Pro-Abortion movement will lead them to become Pro-Life!
