Abortion is not just a murder

[paulonei]

Abortion is not, as they say, just a murder.
It is a theft … And there can’t exist a greatest theft.
Because, for the unborn child,
Steals him this world, the sky, the stars, the universe, everything.
Abortion is the infinite theft.

(Mário Quintana, Brazilian writer)

I translated this text to share with you these words.

O aborto não é, como dizem, simplesmente um assassinato.
É um roubo… Nem pode haver roubo maior.
Porque, ao malogrado nascituro,
Rouba-se-lhe este mundo, o céu, as estrelas, o universo, tudo.
O aborto é o roubo infinito.

Murder is a more serious sin than theft, so it is absurd to try to show how serious abortion is by calling it a type of theft. It also does not make sense to say ‘infinite theft’. All sins are limited. Only God is infinite Goodness. And there is no infinite evil.

Now if only the protestant churches that support the RCRC (religious coalition for reproductive choice) could see it this way. That is one of the main reasons that I came to the Catholic Church, because we are not afraid to take a stand for life.

I read somewhere that the ultimate sin is theft. Every sin is a theft of some kind. Very interesting.
