“…but the Church has with firmness maintained that life in the womb is ever sacred and no one hasthe right to end it.” |
I must give credit to Michael Shackleton for
the good editorial in this week’s edition of The Southern Cross. The editorial, entitled “Fruit Of The Womb”,
discusses the sad reality of abortion.
It expresses the urgent need for Catholics to stop simply silently
accepting the immorality that society wishes to impose on them, even it is
‘written’ into the laws of the country.
Michael Shackleton rightly highlights that this ‘silence’ “scorns the
Church’s strong and categorical teaching that what is legally passed into civil
law is not inevitably passed into morally acceptable conduct.”
