You are close to my point. Let me ask you this, where would Christ be at an abortion clinic? How would he get there? Do you honestly think He would be allowed to eat with sinners if treated them like sinners?
We know the answer because His Church, which He speaks through, has told us the answer. The question is how do you reconcile your position with His Church?
 
So as again, how is that legal route going exactly?
It does not matter how it does or does not go.
Evil is to be resisted, and all possible avenues towards that end should be exercised.

One does not simply approve of an evil because they do not believe they will win.

Exactly! Some catholics are terrified to stand up and just say taking a human life is evil.
 
One of the fallacies with that argument is that it holds as a matter of faith the crime of abortion. Abortion is not evil simply because my religion says so any more then murder or rape is evil because my religion says so.
If this is not religiously motivated, why are you discussing it on this forum?
 
If you live in the United States and support ‘Pro-Life’, what are your thoughts on it and the constitution? Perhaps this new approach is the way to go about it that won’t violate the separation between religion and state?
Abortion has to do with the disregard of natural law which other nations have ignored to their destruction. Little to do with religion. It isn’t because of fear of hell that I oppose it. It is wrong and hurtful to God and the Natural Law.

Freedom of speech and sane posters. (Most of the time)
 
Wrong is wrong, always.

Perhaps you would rather argue that wrong is right?
Hmm, a swirl of circularity and a pinch of begging the question.

Hold on. It’s got little to do with religion but you oppose it because it’s wrong and hurtful to god. Something’s not right here.

It’s just curious to me that every catholic forum discusses abortion while fervently denying it’s based on religion.
 
Perhaps you would like to enlighten us what exactly is the question…?
Begging the question is a logical fallacy where one assumes the point which is to be demonstrated. When he stated “wrong is wrong”, he assumed that abortion was wrong in the first place, so his conclusion is unremarkable.

I am against abortion on several levels; one of which is religious. I believe abortion is the taking of an innocent human life, do agree with that or not? I believe that taking an innocent life is morally wrong, again do you agree or disagree?

I also believe in God and feel that one day I will have to account for my efforts, or lack thereof, to help spare those unborn babies; will you help bring some of them into this world?

Do you know my position? Or are you assuming you know?

What is the answer though?

One does not simply approve of an evil because they do not believe they will win.
But they have been. Where does it say I approve of abortion?

Have you looked up and contemplated on the scripture and critical thinking techniques.

To be honest, in my circles I have found more “pro-life” athiests and pagan ratios then “Christian”. I know of one “minister” who actually drove girls to the clinic and promoted it in her sermons no less.

I think its here because it is a serios Catholic issue, the problem I think some may have is its not a Catholic issue, but a Humanity issue.

It’s based on natural law, not a structured religion. Natural law comes from God, no matter what your religious persuasion might be. If we cut down all the trees in the world, this would effect everyone, every living thing. We would die. If we kill all the babies, who will be our future? Who will be there for humanity when help is needed. Russia is now paying women to have children. Their rate of growth in tecnology etc. surpasses the number of people to manage it. The old people are dying and almost two generations of children have been aborted. How is that religion and not natural law at work.

Do you approve of abortion, disapprove if it or are still trying to arrive at an answer?
