There is probably a lot of pressure from faculty and students to welcome Obama. Obama
had the support of vast numbers of Catholics during the election. 60 million didn’t vote for him. The problem was a need for an opponent that could win. Obama shouldn’t be wel-
come at any Catholic institution.
“Obama had the support of vast numbers of Catholics during the election” because “vast” numbers of “Catholics” have listened to the despicable secular lies and brainwashing propaganda spewed out 24/7 over the last 40+ years.
Sadly, they are totally misinformed and apparently too lazy and too gutless to refute the horrible Truth that **abortion is murder!
**
Horrible people who are pushing the agenda of death for BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN PROFIT have preyed upon the well-meaning but sadly misguided “Catholics” who throw aside the Church’s teaching that tells us;
"**Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law:
Code:
You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish.
God, the Lord of life, has entrusted to men the noble mission of safeguarding life, and men must carry it out in a manner worthy of themselves. Life must be protected with the utmost care from the moment of conception: abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes." (CCC 2271)".**
“
Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offense. The Church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication to this crime against human life. “A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication latae sententiae,” “by the very commission of the offense,” and subject to the conditions provided by Canon Law. The Church does not thereby intend to restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents and the whole of society” (CCC 2272).
If only more “Catholics” would listen to the Truth of Jesus Christ and read Sacred Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church!
It’s a free country (so free that slavery was once legal and today murdering innocent babies is still legal??)
If they can, in good conscience, disagree with Church teaching, groups like “Catholics for Choice” (that’s like calling yourselves Jews for Auschwitz Death Camp Oven Operators???) and people like Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Catherine Sebelius, Ted Kennedy, etc…, should renounce their faith publicly and declare that they are not Catholic. They are really nominal Christians who want to decide for themselves, in direct opposition to the Catholic Church, what constitutes a “grave offense”, ie. what is right and what is wrong (I thought that was God’s job?)
The Church has made it clear that the right to life is the primordial right, without which, all other rights are rendered useless.
Social Justice, peace, ending hunger and oppression are all important, but without the right to life, they are reduced to vain pursuits!
If a mother and father can legally murder their own innocent baby, then we have truly lost our way!!
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, Ora Pro Nobis Peccatoribus!
