The “right to choose” is the right to sin. You can commit sins if you choose, as you have free will, but don’t expect respect, or salvation. Sinners are sinners because of the choices they make and if they remain unrepentant... they are today’s Democrats, without hope of redemption.

Why should the woman’s choice be arbetrarily limited by birth? Why shouldn’t she have that “choice” until the kid is 18, or supporting themselves, whichever comes first?

Best response to this question came from Pres.Reagan, when he told some abortion supporter “aren’t you glad your mother didn’t choose abortion”? Absolute crickets.

The conscience clause in the middle of the Catechism does allow for SOME disagreement with church teaching, if done after much effort and labor and discussion and reflection and prayer. One might, for example, disagree with the Church on contraception or divorce or capital punishment under such parameters. There is more gray area in the Catechism than one might think. But, it is clearly impossible to disagree on the matter of taking innocent life, certainly innocent life already 20 weeks old. The Science is clear. And if a baby in the womb is not sacred, nothing is.

Authorizing mothers to murder their own baby daughters and baby sons between conception and birth is evil.

True. Very sad but true. Since the RCC is hierarchical the bishop has the responsibility Now to correct this errant priest

That's why all post-concilar catechisms need to be burned.

He can’t be speaking in my Lord’s name. I suspect he follows another master.

Wow. Nice word twisting there, Father. I’m sure Jesus is going to be impressed by what a clever wordsmith you are
