Disagree completely. Look at the source. I wonder how much the Catholic Bishops and National Right to Life committee profited by this. They allowed themselves to be used as pawns on an amendment that is going to be so watered down coming out of committee that it will be unrecognizable. Of course they are going to put out an article stating it wouldn’t have mattered anyway. They are wrong.

If National Right to Life and the Catholic Bishops don't stand up for life, then pity the pro-life cause.

There are many ways to fight this administration:

The Holy Mass (approx. 30 minutes) is offered every single day.

Here is what St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcina said about the Mass: “It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do so without the Holy Mass.” Why? Because the supreme and powerful, capable-of-changing-the-world Christ, literally resides in the Holy Eucharist offered at Mass. Why would one NOT want that type of daily surge and "Light?"

The Rosary -- a powerful weapon -- can be recited for protection, even when fighting fierce wars.

Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Chapels are available in many areas now. They are places of prayer that feature Jesus in the Eucharist placed on an altar (in a monstrance) for you to pray to. This, along with the Rosary, can be used by any faith. (As an interesting note, Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Chapels Everywhere spells PEACE.):) There is also the Sacrament of Reconciliation for Catholics, which washes away sin, making one less cynical to "fight the good fight."

As Fr. Euteneuer, one of only twelve official Catholic exorcists in the United States (he understands evil firsthand) has stated, “We are reminded that even supposed political victories are temporary, and that the solution to these problems is not political, even if we have to keep up the political fight and our activist efforts. We are called to prayer, fasting and conversion… only God can put a stop to the horror of abortion now.”

... And from Mother Teresa of Calcutta, "If we are contemplatives in the heart of the world with all its problems, these problems can never discourage us. We must always remember what God tells us in Scripture: 'Even if a mother could forget the child in her womb - something impossible, but even if she could forget - I will never forget you.'"
