Priests to Pelosi: condemn abortion or leave the Church

"As a practicing and respectful Catholic, this is sacred ground to me when we talk about this. I don’t think it should have anything to do with politics," she continued saying about the bill to ban late-term abortions after 20 weeks" House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi.



A pro-life group called on California Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi to "exercise your duties as a public servant and a Catholic, or have the honesty to formally renounce them," in a widely-circulated open letter Wednesday.

"Public servants are supposed to be able to tell the difference between serving the public and killing the public. Apparently, you can’t," wrote national director of Priests for Life Father Frank Pavone. "Otherwise, you would have been able to explain the difference between a legal medical procedure that kills a baby inside the womb and an act of murder."

Pavone’s letter was written in response to the Minority Leader’s argument with a reporter — The Weekly Standard asked Pelosi to clarify her position on abortion in the wake of the Kermit Gosnell case during a press conference Thursday.

"What is the moral difference between what Dr. Gosnell did to a baby born alive at 23 weeks and aborting her moments before birth?" the reporter asked.

Pelosi dismissed the question and equated Gosnell’s crimes with pro-life activists’ condemnation of abortion.

"What was done in Philadelphia was reprehensible and everybody condemned it. For them to decide to disrespect a judgment a woman makes about her reproductive health is reprehensible," she said. "Next question."

In my humble opinion the next step the Catholic Church will take is excommunication. According to its teachings and doctrine this is a "mortal sin". In the distant past heretics were burned at the stake, however, in the present time it she could be burnt in effigy. In either event she will one day stand before God in judgment for the murder of the unborn. Has anyone noticed the ones who advocate FOR abortion have already been born?

In my opinion, abortion is flat out murder. Pro-choice groups like to say it's a woman's choice. well, i say it's a choice that should be made in the bedroom several months beforehand, and NOT when a life is about to be taken.
