Indeed, but all this rhetoric will ring hollow unless the Church resumes a systematic teaching against sexual sin, starting with contraception, extramarital sex and homosexuality on the parish level.
On the anniversary of Roe vs Wade my church planted a white cross on the front lawn for every child murdered by abortion in the month of December in Louisville. There were 280 crosses which everyone had to pass upon entering the church. It was a powerful message. Right to Life in Louisville also took out a newspaper ad, which published the names of people against abortion. It cost $5 to put your name in the ad. The names were printed Very Small and filled a whole page (thousands upon thousands of names).
