Pro-Abortion Radicals Set Fire to Cathedral in Bogota, Colombia

(LifeSiteNews) — Pro-abortion radicals in Colombia set the doors of the cathedral in Bogota on fire in a recent act of terrorism against pro-life values.

On the night of September 28, a group of masked pro-abortion radicals lit the doors of Bogota Cathedral ablaze. The act of terrorism against pro-lifers came as pro-abortion activists called for abortion to be made “safe and legal” in Colombia.

“We reject all forms of violence in actions and words,” the Archdiocese of Bogota said in a statement the next day. “We demand civility on the part of the promoters and participants of marches and protests, [and] we ask the authorities to guarantee the life, honor, and property of citizens.”

This act of terrorism, clearly seen in a video showing women pouring gasoline along the base of the cathedral doors before lighting them ablaze, came as a part of various demonstrations done for “International Safe Abortion Day.” Throughout the day, pro-abortion activists gave speeches where they demanded that the Colombian government make abortion “safe and legal” in Colombia.

The attack on the cathedral was carried out despite the fact that the Constitutional Court already legalized abortion up to 24 weeks of pregnancy in February, making Colombia the most “progressive” country in Latin American and the Caribbean in regard to abortion.

The attack also comes as pro-abortion violence against pro-lifers ramps up around the world, with churches and pro-life pregnancy centers finding themselves increasingly the victims of anti-pro-life violence.

That's because the Culture of Death Left is never satisfied until they can kill anyone anytime with ne restriction.

That should be: “No restriction.”

What exactly does this accomplish? Pressure on the Church to endorse abortion?

It's a demonic temper tantrum, not a well thought out terrorist act with a definite goal.

The good news: no one will ever love these women, they even hate themselves for being women. Din distroys itself.
