I am involved in a lot of pro-life activism at my university and I stumbled upon this website called “Catholics For Choice.” Here is a direct quote from their website catholicsforchoice.org/ :
"At Catholics for Choice, We Imagine a World:
Where all women and men are trusted to make moral decisions about their lives.
Where the decision to start a family is thoughtful and planned.
Where policy makers and advocates are free to support policies that create a more just and compassionate society.
Where life-saving health interventions aren’t blocked by sectarian interests.
Where abortion is safe, legal and truly accessible, and both contraception and child care are available and affordable.
We Live In a World:
Where abortion remains illegal or unavailable for millions of women around the world, even when it could save their lives.
Where a woman who needs emergency contraception at a hospital or pharmacy is denied because of the religious beliefs of the pharmacist behind the counter, or the nurse in the emergency room.
Where policy makers are ostracized in their churches and harassed by their clergy because of their support for sex education or reproductive health care for poor women.
Where a rape survivor in a war torn country can be told by the Vatican that she must continue the pregnancy that resulted from her attack.
Where more than 40 million people live with HIV and AIDS while the Vatican lobbies against the use of condoms.
In all parts of the world, women, men and their families suffer because they lack the resources to plan their families, and the comprehensive information and education to keep themselves safe and healthy."
How can these people call themselves Catholic? Not only do they blatantly support abortion, but also birth control as well, all while unashamedly attacking the Church?
Also, here is the link to their facebook group:
