Somebody needs to undergo a “Senior” Abortion.

The only justification for an abortion is the life threatening condition called ectopic pregnancy which can cause blood vessels to burst and the mother can bleed to death.

“The floor of hell is paved with the skulls of rotten bishops.” And archbishops.

If I recall correctly, it was St. John Chrysostom who said that.

“… even an ignoramus like me…”

Well, he got that part right.

“I have not heard Monsignor Cañizares’ words and I do not know the context. What I can guess is what would go through my head if I got the news that they are experimenting with a vaccine with cultures of cells from aborted fetuses and what I would not do is take a leap and pass the field of morality,” replied Agrelo.

“I mean that there will be those who think that, when it comes to abortions, it is something immoral, when even an ignorant person like me knows that there are abortions that have nothing immoral. Therefore, going from the investigation of these cells to the immoral, is a leap that is not legitimate,” he said.

At the risk of jumping right into Godwin's Law, the bishop's arguments sound like saying "since a few of the Jews died of natural causes in the Nazi death camps, we really can't make moral judgements on the Holocaust."

“Approaching the woman to understand her, to welcome her, to walk with her …”

That’s what pro-lifers do every day.

“Are you really asking me this question? Let’s see, let’s see, let me tell you like this, even if some will be scandalized: I don't care about heaven, and I don’t care about hell; in other words, I don’t care about what there is after death,” Agrelo said.

An archbishop said this? Honestly, he sounds possessed.

Of course all abortions are sinful. The issue (which I don’t think is the issue this priest is talking about) is whether the Catholic Church teaches it is sinful for someone to have a vaccine that was created with fetal tissue. I don’t think it is as clear cut as many would expect.
