The Archbishop didn't ask everybody to first become Catholic and then protest. He just wants people who understand that killing babies is wrong (aka people of good will in this case) to protest. So despite the fact that I think Catholicism is an absolute crock of bull...

I do on this issue. <BR/><BR/>People use abortion as birth control, as an excuse to behave badly, as a means to make money at the expense of young women and unborn children... and it is unethical ANY way you look at it, whether you're religious or not and regardless of the excuses anyone uses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20067416.post-3937909474637472312008-07-07T10:52:00.000-04:002008-07-07T10:52:00.000-04:00I am amused at the reactions among the anti-womens...I am amused at the reactions among the anti-womens'-choice proponents. Among these is there even one who has criticised (forget condemn) nun Teresa of Calcutta who denied medical care to the few wretches in her custody, while she herself availed of the best medical care courtesy the Indian government. To this day the missionary order founded by this charlatan has not established a single medical facility - not even a primary care facility - with the millions upon millions it has raised from a gullible and fawning public.trutihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06313354254836558451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20067416.post-58596773028815439622008-07-07T06:43:00.000-04:002008-07-07T06:43:00.000-04:00>>It is really offensive for the Archbishop to sug...>>It is really offensive for the Archbishop to suggest that the only way you can be a "person of good will" is to agree with the Catholic Church's position.<BR/><BR/>This is what they have been suggesting for centuries.:(Akilanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17677328298596479367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20067416.post-71572252531053521732008-07-07T05:44:00.000-04:002008-07-07T05:44:00.000-04:00Yes, anonymous, it's possible to have non-religio...Yes, anonymous, it's possible to have non-religious arguments against abortion, but the overwhelming majority of people opposed to abortion base their arguments on religious grounds.<BR/><BR/>Those are the ones I was speaking of when I used the term "misguided".Jeffrey Shallithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763971505497961430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20067416.post-89313484197274847472008-07-06T21:41:00.000-04:002008-07-06T21:41:00.000-04:00Because most of them base their objections to abor...<I>Because most of them base their objections to abortion on religious reasons, and there is no rational basis for their religion.</I><BR/><BR/>What about objections to abortion that have nothing to do with religion?
