Pope Francis has apparently made waves for something he didn't actually say. The Pope said, "Who am I to judge?", and the left leaning media took that to be code words for, "Hey do whatever you want, and the Catholic Church won't say anything!" They claim a new day is dawning!
No, no, no, no, NO! He said the exact same thing that Pope Emeritus Joseph Ratzinger said, and Blessed Pope John Paul II before him. Pope Francis just said it in a nicer way. Nothing has changed, people. The Church didn't say abortion, contraceptives, divorce, women priests, and a myriad of other social issues are now acceptable! Openly gay priests will not be ushered to the lectern to give homilies saying that there is nothing wrong with homosexuality, or that the Church will start performing gay "marriages". The Catholic Church is not known for bowing to the whims of secular society, nor should it. What good is a religion that changes its policies or doctrines based on what makes people feel good? Since when is that a proper measurement of what is good for society?
The Pope in my humble opinion is correct when he says we must be brothers. Just like those of us of the Catholic faith should not help someone procure an abortion, but pray for the parents and the unborn baby being aborted, we must, with love, tell the truth about the destruction of sexual deviances.
The left wants desperately for the Catholic Church to approve of their destructive ways of life. Why? Why do they care what the Catholic Church says? Why do so many phony politicians claim to be Catholic, but spit in the face of those of us who actually live the faith, รก la Pelosi, Biden, and Sebelius? They do it because then they assume that when they stand before God, they can excuse their deceit and lies, and won't have to account for the multitude of souls they've led astray.
I will pray for our Pope, and pray that the moral decay in our society will eventually be destroyed, for the sake of our children!
As the leader of the free world I'm sure you are a very busy man, so I will try and make this brief.
I am a young mother of six beautiful children. I am a Pro-Life wife, a devout Catholic, and an Army veteran. I know you have very little respect for the opinions or values of pro-lifers like myself, and I'm sure that what I have to say will not move you in any way whatsoever towards the plight of the unborn. However, since we still have free speech in America, I cannot stand by and say nothing.
For the first time in our history, a sitting president addressed Planned Parenthood. I understand why you support an organization that makes its profit off of the murder of innocent babies. They send you great sums of money for campaigns. I am very disturbed by your "God Bless You" statement to them however. God would never bless an organization that has been responsible for millions of deaths since Roe V. Wade. You call yourself a Christian man, but support the wholesale slaughter of the weakest among us. I was dismayed by your statement to Planned Parenthood in 2008 stating that if your daughters became pregnant before they were ready, that you would view your grandchild as "punishment". I became pregnant at 18 years old. I was a scared Private still in Advanced Individual Training. I was 19 when my daughter was born, and not once has my father called her punishment. I have had 5 more children since then, and again no one in my family has called them punishment.
I noticed that you did not mention Kermit Gosnell in your speech, but he has carried out the very thing you supported while a Senator. The Born Alive Infant Protection Act that would have protected the baby born alive from an abortion, you voted down, because it was the will of the mother that she wanted her baby dead. I did not hear you give accolades to him, or others like him. The horror of the Gosnell trial is happening many times over in this country, and yet you support an organization that recently admitted that it does not normally take measures to help a baby who survived an abortion attempt.
You have demonized those of us that believe a little baby has the RIGHT to see the light of day, the right to life, that punishing the baby is not the answer, and then tell us that we need to find common ground when it comes to abortion. Mr. President, there is NO COMMON GROUND!!! Your healthcare law will impugn the rights of the religious all over this country, and you have given us no respect to our faiths and beliefs. Abortion is not healthcare!
You have supported an organization whose founder, Margaret Sanger, was an avowed racist and eugenicist. An organization whose very focus was the depopulation of Black, Hispanic, poor, or disabled communities. As the leader of our great nation you should want to help those mothers who feel driven to have an abortion, by telling them that they have help. That there should be hope for their little baby, not death and destruction.
"If there is even one life we can save, we've got an obligation to try!" Those were your words Mr. President when addressing gun violence. Why do you berate and belittle those that feel the same way about the unborn?
You say God Bless You to them, but I hate to believe you mean that. Jesus said, "Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to me: for the kingdom of heaven is for such." (Matthew 19:14). That should be our guidance, not the blood money from abortions! I will pray for you Mr. President, that your heart will be softened to the cries of the unborn, and that you will have compassion for the torn lives of their parents.
Together, we resolved that a great nation must care for the vulnerable, and protect its people from life’s worst hazards and misfortune.
~ President Barack Obama during his 2nd inaugural address January 21, 2013.
Too bad these words don't apply to the unborn. The number above is how many lives have been snuffed out because of legalized abortion through Roe v. Wade. This does not include the hundreds of mothers that have perished from said abortion. Click here to visit The Blackmun Wall. How can we as a "civilized society", turn a blind eye to the atrocities of this cruel procedure? Yesterday marked the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Society has placed the value of the unborn to be less than nothing. Not human. A clump of cells. Not alive until birth. We have not made enough progress to be one step closer to saying, "We are better than this!"
So how does Center for Reproductive Rights celebrate 40 years of death? With this garbage below:
How can a black man, whose own race is being wiped out at a faster rate than slavery even thought of, support a procedure who's founding principles within Planned Parenthood was the extinction of the "undesirables"?
We want to say how it is so horrible how many people died through communism in the last century. Hitler, Stalin, Mao Zedong. But point out how many have died through abortion in the last 40 years, and you're evil incarnate. Why? If abortion is such a benefit, such a "moral obligation", then why doesn't the left want to talk about that number? At their next rally, maybe they should have a banner made to hang above the stage that reads, "50+ million and counting!!!" Because nothing screams, "strong woman" like having the power to kill your unborn. Some women are proud of their abortion, or have had multiple abortions like it is birth control.
The woman below was there for her FIFTH ABORTION!!!
~It was taken at Orlando Women's Center on June 20, 2012. The girl in the pink dress happily posed at the killing place & said she hoped her picture would be put on Facebook. This young mom was there to get rid of her baby late in pregnancy, by labor & delivery (Partial Birth) abortion. She casually told John that this was her 5th abortion.~
We have put mother against her own flesh and blood for supposed convenience. Other women are at their weakest, because they feel hopeless, lost, scared. The man in her life is supposed to be there to protect and take care of her and their child, and instead, he's probably the main reason she feels the need to have an abortion. And as far as the argument of health of the mother in late term abortions... please tell me how having an abortion at 30 weeks is more beneficial than just delivering the baby by cesarean section. We know the baby can survive at that gestation. They can survive at 28, 26, 24, and 22 weeks gestation. I was a preemie. I weighed less than two pounds when I was born, and fought for my life for three months in the NICU at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. I was the first to survive at that gestation there. But according to pro-abortionists, I was not a human at that gestation, not alive, not a person. Aborting me at that gestation would have been perfectly fine by them because I was just a clump of cells. That industry has since perfected killing babies at that gestation, over the last 20 years. Partial birth abortion is the most barbaric atrocity committed against the most defenseless among us.
This story yesterday made me sick to my stomach. Cuomo is a typical liberal "Catholic". Hello Cardinal Dolan?!? Why hasn't he been excommunicated yet?!?
I am so disgusted by the attacks against those of us that fight for life. Like we are uncaring, and hateful. We are the ones who run Crisis Pregnancy Centers, Rachael's Vineyard, and Gabriel's Project. We are the ones who donate our time and treasure, to these centers, and shed many tears for the constant loss of life day after day, week after week, year after year, decade after decade. The evil of abortion is now good, and those of us that fight for life are bad. I have always said it was the people of faith that ended slavery, and it will be people of faith that end legalized abortion!
I am my parents miracle, and am very grateful that they saw me as such, and not as a burden to them. We need to change hearts and minds to show the mother, that there is hope, there is help, and that they CAN MAKE IT!
