About CSF
WO
hundred years ago, slavery
was legal in many places, and many persons said, “It’s legal, and we can make money from it,
so what’s the problem with it?” Yet there were many Catholics who worked to abolish slavery,
saying it’s morally wrong. Today, abortion is legal in many places, and many persons say,
“It’s legal, and we can make money from it, so what’s the problem with it?” Yet there are
many Catholics today working to abolish abortion, saying it’s morally wrong. So, essentially,
the advocates for abortion today are no different from the advocates for slavery
in the past.
Yes, in the past, slave owners were
pro choice.
Abortion is a hate crime. And how perverted it
is that many of those who are enraged about slavery in the past support abortion now. What
hypocrites. In the past, slave owners were pro choice.
Besides the mortal sins of murder and greed,
abortion, at its core, is sustained by the mortal sin of lust. Hence, as long as anyone
anywhere refuses to seek purity of heart through a total dedication to a life of
chastity, there will be no end to abortion. So vow that you, at
least, will present your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, that holiness
may enter the world through you. Pray for chastity as the true means to end any abortion, legal
or illegal.
