Washington DC - Jon O’Brien, the president of Catholics for Choice, issued the following statement about today’s meeting between Pope Benedict XVI and Speaker Nancy Pelosi:

"I was pleased to hear that Speaker Pelosi and Pope Benedict XVI had a cordial meeting today. At that meeting, Speaker Pelosi did justice to Catholics in the United States and around the world by representing the views of the majority of Catholics who are prochoice as well as raising some of the current social justice issues that are critically important to American Catholics, including poverty, hunger and peace in the Middle East.

"During their meeting, Pope Benedict reasserted the Vatican’s support for building a culture of life. Indeed, Speaker Pelosi, by speaking out against war, capital punishment and torture, has consistently supported a culture of life. Moreover, Speaker Pelosi’s support for sexual and reproductive health–including her advocacy for condom use as a means to prevent the spread of HIV and family planning so that women can choose whether and when to start a family–shows how Speaker Pelosi has worked to create just laws that promote a culture of life.

"Catholics for Choice is encouraged that this important dialogue took place. As in any family, there will be disagreements. The Catholic church is certainly not exempt from these moments of difference. However, the ability to move forward and create spaces for healthy dialogue in order to better the church and the world is what will set the church apart in the long run.

“We hope that the dialogue will continue not just between Speaker Pelosi and Pope Benedict but also between all members of the church hierarchy and the Catholic faithful. Only then will the church hierarchy be able to fully comprehend the needs and views of Catholics in order to inform their proclamations on a wide range of issues, including those related to reproductive health.”

I guess Catholics for choice feel murder isn’t against the 10 commandments/

I wonder how they work that out?
 
Catholics for Choice?.. They need to remove that first noun from their name. Their organization is about as Catholic as I am a fishing rod.

Pax.
 
They are one of the most evil organizations on the face of the planet. I cannot stand these people. I really wish that every bishop would publicly excommunicate any of them who reside in his diocese.

In Christ,

Indeed, Speaker Pelosi, by speaking out against war, capital punishment and torture, has consistently supported a culture of life.

First of all I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at that ridiculous statement.
Secondly isn’t that above statement an oxymoron? “Consistently supported a culture of life”~~~ She has consistently supported abortion and advocates late term abortions!~~~

I am sure they have no idea how stupid and contradictory their statements are.
 
“Catholics” for Choice is a misnomer. You cannot be Catholic and support abortion, contraception, sterilization and other things that Nan and this group support.
This group gives a whole new meaning to the word SPIN!
 
That press release makes me want to gag, though it is unsurprising.
 
The press release reminds me, in the use of rhetoric, of press releases from certain amoral NGOs that are in my local area. They take something they are promoting that is having a negative impact on someone or a group of someones and put their positive spin on it.

When I read this type of thing I see the composer(s) staring glassily ahead with their lips barely moving, their nether parts clenched tightly shut. :hypno:
 
Catholics for Choice-there’s an oxymoron if I ever heard one!

👍 I agree with you 100%!😃
 
How delusional can you get. Catholics for choice - what about the choice of the father or the CHILD 😦

Catholics for Choice shapes and advances sexual and reproductive ethics that are based on justice, reflect a commitment to women’s well-being and respect and affirm the capacity of women and men to make **moral **decisions about their lives :eek:​

All that spinning left me dizzy, not to mention the deliberate lies in the article.

:frighten: It’s true water seeks it’s own level! how do a bunch of people collectively agree with this tripe? Catholics for Choice~~ Choosing not to be Catholic!
 
It is as if they refuse to hear what is spoken to them. It makes me want to shake them and scream “The cafeteria is closed!” 🤷
