I agree. But the point is whether the states are in a better position than the Federal government to accomplish this. I would say because the states enforce the penalties, fines, executions, etc. that they are in a better position.
Then you formulate an amendment which will give everyone some consideration. Read the 14th amendment, for example, which has items that seem unrelated.
When it comes to protecting lives, that should fall to the states and the fed.
I believe the feds don’t execute murderers, even if it’s a federal crime. It’s usually a STATE VERSUS the one on trial.
A true Catholic believes what the Church teaches and does not tailor Catholicism to fit their own personal opinions and wants.Well I am a Catholic and Abortion is a Women’s issue. Men have no right saying what a Woman can do with her body. What a Woman does with her body is between her and her GOD. WHO ARE YOU to make decisions on who is Catholic and who is not ? You see, there are alot more “Cafeteria Catholic” out there then you would like to admit. I am shocked that SOME Catholics are drinking so much of “one size fits all” Koolaide
Your God is EVERYONE’S God… God is God to everyone. That makes no sense…?
Never knew a baby that didn’t have a father. As best I can determine, it takes a man AND a woman to create another human life. Abortion is a human rights issue, not a women’s issue.
Its not all or nothing… I think many with their self-rightous beliefs… pointing out the “mortal sins” of others is crazy. Its also more than likely why Church attendence is falling like a rock.

As I stated before, when the GOP listens to the garbage of Michelle Bachmann and Rick Santorum… They will loose every time. Their views are extreme to say the least and are on the loosing end of history… The GOP better learn that insanity “same stuff over and over, expecting different results,” will cause them to loose every time.
Ummm…people don’t dictate what are mortal sins. The Church does; GOD does. Church attendance is dropping because people are becoming more vain, selfish, and secularized. Mortal sins have ALWAYS been mortal sins. Truth does not change; God and His Law does not change, but culture sure does.Its not all or nothing… I think many with their self-rightous beliefs… pointing out the “mortal sins” of others is crazy.

Sadly, most don’t know the difference. I don’t know how many times I hear in my hometown about how “all mexicans are illegals” and things in a similar vein. Much like with a lot of things, people take bits and pieces of what they hear and transform it to what they like. This means the Republican party is definitely not anti-immigrant, but I assume quite a few who vote for it are, at least where I live.
Actually fission the churches that have LOST the most are the liberal mainline churches. Those are the people who are no longer churched or have elevated secularism to an art form if not a religion. Catholicism, evangelical Christianity and other traditional religions have not suffered nearly the drop of the Methodists, Episcopalians, Presbyterians etc. They no longer stand for anything so who needs them?Its not all or nothing… I think many with their self-rightous beliefs… pointing out the “mortal sins” of others is crazy.

Just because there are a lot of Cafeteria catholics doesn’t make it right. If we use that logic, than it is okay to have premarital sex, or to get drunk, or smoke dope or god knows what. Superior numbers doesn’t mean superior beliefs. Having the superior being (God) does. That being said I feel maybe you should read what the church teaches and why. It might change your views. If not, at least you will know what your’e missingWell I am a Catholic and Abortion is a Women’s issue. Men have no right saying what a Woman can do with her body.

Whatever you wish to believe. Eventually, only a few will be at Mass… I know in my area, in the past 5 years … 4 of the local Parishs have closed or combined, why ? lack of membership… what a shame. I will answer to God for my thoughts and actions, sinful or not. Not to a Federal Government or Church. Sorry, but its what I think… and I am Catholic… and a great many more like me are around than you must realize…
We are not really allowed to bring into question someone’s faith here, so I will make a general statement:
Goodnight. Prayers offered for you.
Fission you are the world’s greatest expert on your own opinion. But an opinion isn’t the same as a religion. The state of your soul is up to you but please do not claim to know the truth simply because this is the way you feel about a subject. Our faith has a long and amazing tradition. We follow Christ, we don’t presume to tell Him what is right or wrong.
It’s not what I wish to believe, it is the Truth. It’s Church history. Yes Mass attendance numbers are falling but the answer is not to conform to the culture.
Who am I? I’m a father that had no say as to whether my child would be aborted or not. Who are you,or who is anybody for that matter, to decide my child can be killed without my say in the matter?Well I am a Catholic and Abortion is a Women’s issue.
