Im always astounded as to the extent of deception in which pro-choice Catholics indulge themselves, both inwardly and outwardly, to justify their positions. Perhaps there is no balder example of this than Nancy Pelosi attempting to spin the Catholic doctrine on human life today on Meet the Press. Pelosi argues that the Catholic position on human life only developed in the last 50 years and that it doesnt impact abortion in any case:

Slow Joe Biden is doing exactly the same thing. Just overt lying.

There’s a thread running which gives the response from a Denver Bishop.
Let her keep talking.
The more she talks the bigger hole she digs for herself.
Mark.9:42
[42] And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
Luke.17:2
[2] It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
I dare sat that this translates to capital punishment.
It goes without saying, I hope, that ripping a human being apart “offends” the little one. It does more than that but I’ll leave it at that.
Pelosi can say this over and over again. Every time she says it the thermostat on the eternal furnace will click higher.
She never heard of the Wisdom of Solomon??
“Membership in the Catholic Church is voluntary. If people do not want to follow its doctrines, they should find another faith community that reflects their values and at the least, they should learn what the Church teaches on abortion and life before mischaracterizing it on national television. Pelosi is either a fool or a liar, or perhaps both.”
I would like to see her excommunicated. Then she’d know what the church teachings are.
I go with the first
Just when you thought nobody could answer that question worse than Obummer, Do Nothing Nancy rises to the occasion. Hey Facelift, the Catholic Church says it is at the moment of Conception.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Shame on her and shame on the Catholic Church for not excommunicating her, Biden, Kennedy, et.al., or at the very least publically announcing they will not be allowed Communion if they do not recant.
Ms. Pelosi's use of the word "ardent" is interesting...
Pronunciation: \är-dənt\
Function: adjective
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French, from Latin ardent-, ardens, present participle of ardēre to burn, from ardor
Good catch.
Didn’t the Catholic position on abortion change about the same time that the American Chemical Society declared that natural gas was not a fossel fuel? sarc off.
I cannot name anyone that I’ve known that is close to as stupid as is Pelosi. (No sarc there whatsoever.)
... cuz first, one needs a brain
She and her ilk have excommunicated themselves...
It’s really too bad that Nancy’s mother did not share her views.
Its one thing to disagree with Church teaching. It’s another to misrepresent what she teaches because you don’t understand the subject.
But to assert the polar opposite on a topic as unambiguous as abortion? I’m not sure how to characterize that. “Ignorant” doesn’t seem to quite capture the depth and breadth of stupidity, but that’s the best I can come up with..
Also notice how many bishops -- including Pope Benedict -- have spoken out on the issue of these people supporting abortion.
