To tell the truth on Mandella takes courage.You would need someone like Pope Benedict and Cardinal O’connor.The laity that protest outside the abortion mills have real COURAGE.
Jesus says Love God with all your heart, soul, mind and being and love your neighbor as yourself. Can someone please tell me where Jesus says we can support the killing of the unborn babies in the womb? The Bible states; Thou Shalt not Kill innocent people.
So now with the death of the 95 year old Nelson Mandela, many Catholic bishops, priests, religious and laity are ignoring the fact that Mandela promoted murdering of the babies in the womb, homosexuality and population control. All of these three actions are condemned by the Bible and the Catholic Church.
As president of South Africa, Mandela signed into law the most liberal abortion law in 1996 (Choice on Terminating of Pregnancy Bill). It replaced one of the best laws that protected the unborn in the world there in South Africa. He also taught that it was discrimination of sexual orientation to not support homosexuality. He widely promoted the use of condoms... --Fr. Peter Carota
